Why do you believe in God or not?

Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit, all are God. They are all part of the Trinity yet each a separate person of the trinity, which is referred to as a whole, as God. One does not function without the other

Why do I believe in God?

I could write a book on it. God is so real, yet people refuse to believe it. Yet, I don't know how they could miss it all.

God loved me, though I was unlovable.
God loves me, though I am a sinner. Yet I am a sinner, saved by grace, thanks to Jesus. Jesus forgave me and transformed my whole life. He never turned me away and he never will anyone. Grace is unearned favor from God and anyone can have it. Jesus died for the world, not just one.

Jesus has shown me many miracles for those who believe. He saved my daughter from dying when the doctors gave up on her and told her she would die in a week. The family got together and prayed for her though she had given up on herself because all her organs were shutting down and her kidneys were, already. But the family prayed for her and God saved her. Instantly! And there were witnesses to see it.

You can't go wrong trusting Jesus and inviting him into your heart and life to be your Savior.

Jesus is the best friend you could ever have in the world. Though people lie and say he wants nothing but to hurt people and throw them in hell. What hypocrisy, what lies.

In the 50 years I have known and served him willingly, out of love not fear as some false teachers would tell you or naysayers..... he never abandoned me, he never stopped loving me though I made mistakes, he has done nothing but love me, care for me, protect me, has even healed me a few times, rescued me, never hurt me, has always been there for me through thick and thin, someone I can trust completely as my best friend. A friend in every way you can imagine. I can only say good about him because he is good. He's the only one that is good and worthy of being called good, and he is the best friend you'll ever have if you decide you want that.

God is love personified and he is perfect. He cannot err and he cannot lie. There is no sin in him. And he sticks with you until the end, always. There's just nothing negative that I could ever say or feel for him after all he has done for me and thousands of others that have accepted him as their Savior. He is a Way Maker, Miracle Worker, and Light in the Darkness.

His love does not require that we be "good" in order for him to accept us. He loves us just the way we are. We already [b]have[/b] his love, we don't have to earn it, as some false treachers say.

I could say more, but you get the picture. Jesus said now is the time to make our choice whether we are going to accept him as our Savior or not. He turns no one away.

He died on the cross to save me from the condemnation placed on me... and the whole world. No one forced him to do that. He didn't have to do that, but he did. [b]He volunteered. [/b] had he not, every one of us would have went to hell. He not only said he loves me, he proved it. There's nothing more he could have done, to prove His love for us. For that I am forever grateful and he is mine until I go home to meet him face to face and fall at his feet in love and gratitude, because he alone deserves all the honor and all the praise for what he did for the world.

Jesus gave his all for me. His very best, even unto death. Who am I that he should do this for me, and care? I cannot give him less than my best.

@LadyGrace yes, 100%. I look all around me, seeing evidence of God the underside of a leaf the veining, how it takes carbon dioxide and synthesizes oxygen for me to breathe, His creation that He made, the grand mountains the vast oceans teeming with life..... A new born baby.... All of God's handiwork

God came to His creation, to redeem us, buy us back with his blood sacrifice, Himself.
All I need to do is accept His payment for me. ....
@1pebbles Amen sister, those are very beautiful words and thoughts. So true.

@LadyGrace we need to be examples of Him
@1pebbles Amen, sister. Those that deny him now, he will deny before his Father in Heaven. The bible says so, and all the mocking they did and all the calling God a myth or fairy tale and cursing at him or about him, they will soon see that He really is real, and alive forevermore. It reminds me of what Revelation said, that every knee on earth, shall bow before him in heaven, and give him the praise and glory he deserves. That is one appointment none of us will miss and the one that shall definitely come to pass. God will not change his plans because of unbelief. But God is not willing that any perish, not even his enemies. We must pray for those who do not know him, to have a change of heart and know him for what a lovely Savior he is, not out to hurt nor harm anyone. No matter what they have done or what they have said, He always has room for them in his heart and reaches out to them, and turns no one away and that's the message God wants them to know. Nothing can separate us from the love of God. I pray they will unharden their hearts and turn to him before they meet him face to face. Because then it will be too late to say, "I believe, Lord." God even prays for his enemies and those who hate him, that they will come to Salvation because he loves them no matter what.
