#22. How do you prove the existence of God?

I was reading a gospel handbook which helped me to prove the existence of God. It’s a pretty long explanation in the book. I will do a summary here instead. I am sure that there are many other ways to prove but I shall list down four. :)

1. Creation proves the existence of God

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1)
“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” (Romans 1:20)
He is clearly revealed to all mankind through His Word, calling them to return to Him and embrace His great love.

Science does not create. It discovers. The more discoveries humans make, the more they are willing to humbly acknowledge their limitations and insignificance.

Einstein once said, “The infinite and transcendent God has revealed His existence through small things that even our feeble and limited minds could understand. I am fully in awe of this. It has certainly shaped my faith. Deep in my heart, I believe in a transcendent intelligence that is manifested in this incredible universe. It shapes my beliefs about God.”

Darwin also said, “I acknowledge that primitive life owes its existence to the Creator. If there is no ultimate first cause, it is impossible for the universe to exist.”

Things made by human are prone to error, accident and energy crisis. A Russian spaceship was destroyed due to a lack of fuel; an American space shuttle exploded after taking off. However in the universe created by God, billions of stars and planets move according to their orbits all the time. There has never been a problem with their orbits.

“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” (Psalms 19:1)

2. The human spirit proves the existence of God

God has created three kinds of life: plants, animals and humans.

Plants: a bodily existence.
Animals: a physical body and some functions of a soul but no spirit.
Humans: created in the image and likeness of God; beings with body, soul and spirit.

Furthermore, the Creator has given them a spirit for knowing Him and to have a relationship with Him. Human beings, who are created by God, have a spirit that allows them to have contact with the spiritual realm.

3. The existence of evil spirits proves the existence of God

I am sure that many of you have heard of reports concerning people being possessed by demons. This shows that there is spiritual realm beyond the physical world inhabited by people. However, when evil spirits hear the name of Jesus, they flee in terror. Victory in the name of Jesus is the experience and testimony of many Christians.

4. The experience of Christians proves the existence of God

Hello! Hello! Hello! I am one of them! Yes, if you are curious, feel free to come and ask me. I will be more than willing to share with you! :D

The numbers of those who believe in Lord Jesus has increased throughout the years and have personally experience the real and living Lord. This is a fact without dispute.
