I believe in God because all my success comes from him. When I look back how it all started and were I am now I smile and see more reasons to believe in him.

GreatResearcher:
Explain the bolded in details

oldman112:
my definition of Success I think is what matters her. My life I know is about testimonies.

You mustn't believe in him to have good health and riches but when you believe in him you have riches good health and lastly peace of mind. I still don't mean that people that don't believe in him won't have peace but I dedicate mine to Him.

GreatResearcher:
Would u mind sharing at least two testimonies?
They are billions of people who believe in him and still don't have good health, riches and peace of mind as u stated above.

I know milions who are core belivers and still living below a dollar per day.

Martinez39:
They won't visit this thread because they know that they have nothing reasonable to say.

oldman112:
there is nothing I would tell you as one of the testimonies that you would say haven't happened before but I dedicate mine to Him so just chose three you are expecting and use it. Am a Christian and knows my Father in Heaven knows the number of hairs in my head. Once you understand this you wouldn't be bothered what life brings to you. Thanks dear

MuttleyLaff the great religionist is avoiding this thread. Jesusjnr the NL bishop is doing same. I know my bestie victorian will say something

Hmmm! Send me a pm .


And to the question, have been saved miraculously from death several times. And to me , I find it strange and I feel God is the one who some how , some way has been keeping me alive till date . My being alive today is a huge miracle .
I'm amazed about it . Even though have experienced things that have killed people in a past, but am still alive . hale and hearty .
I'm humbled and surprised .

hopefulLandlord:


What sayeth thou to people like us who as an atheist have been saved from death too? I've escaped situations in which some others died. I've escaped alive from situations that looked like certain death but I was an atheist before, during and after these occurrences.

If you know, you know. Who no know, like GreatResearcher, CAPSLOCKED and others, no go know

CAPSLOCKED:
SIMPLE... THEY BELIEVE IN GOD BECAUSE THEIR PARENTS TAUGHT THEM TO BELIEVE.

kimco:
I believe in God (not Jesus mind you) because I was indoctrinated to do so. If im to really have a reason to believe in him, it would be that I need something to believe in, in times of need. call it cognitive homeostasis. This is the real truth, rich people, or people who can change the course of their destinies do not rely on God. Mostly its the miserables that do that. Count the number of times one has gone to church being very poor vrs the times he goes when he earns a hefty living. I guess im saying that I believe in God still because Im miserable and need something to believe in.

vonlogon:
Its like asking why you love your father or mother, truth is you don't need a reason, love doesn't need reasons, if I tell you I believe in God for a specific reason, then I'm indirectly saying that's why I'm a believer. Truth is we all started of as atheists but over time we each went on our separate journey of discovery. In my own case, no one preached to me, God found me and brought me home, I believe him yet I haven't seen him, happy is he not seeing yet believes. The true test of faith is things you don't see yet you believe, even atheists do it. If you desire it, God will prove himself to you, your spirit and tour whole being will bear you witness.

Please, this is not in anyway geared at insulting your personal belief, I just tried answering your question as inspired. Apologies if any offence.

I don't know about yours but in the past when I got angry with my life situation. And I said angrily to myself , that God u don't exist! You are not powerful , you are just there enjoying praises and worship from people but u don't have the power people think you have .
My dear ,that day I had a ghastly car and bike accident . Accident I rarely have before , that fateful day , i had an accident , I was rushed to the hospital and there in the hospital bed ,I knew God was passing a message to me , which is :Victoria I have been saving your ass all these while , so don't think I do not exist , cos I do.
On my bed I cried for forgiveness and accepted God back .
Since then till date , no more accidents. Even when heart attacks kill people , even killed my mum within 10mins of her fainting but in my own case the heart attack will come , I will scream in pain ,faint but still wake up with no pain in my heart . it happened several times but I will still wake up and feel OK afterwards . my mum fainted but died within 10mins . my only brother fainted from heart attack , and had stroke but died after three years . I had heart attack but woke up after an hour or so like nothing happened .

Isn't that God ?

So I can only talk about me , I dont know about yours .

GreatResearcher:
There's a big gap b/w love and believe. There's must be a reason u believe in something.

U can't just believe anything unless u are a zombie.
