Evidence for the existence of God

In religious philosophy and popular culture, the existence of God has always been a point of contention. There have been numerous arguments made on this subject, and it is a fascinating topic for Christians like us. So, what evidence do we have that God exists in our world?


The Bible depicts a God who demonstrates His existence. Here are some of the evidences mentioned in the Bible and by scientists:
- Our physical universe was created from nothing, according to science. But how did this come to be? Although science is unable to explain the genesis of the cosmos, answers are required. The Bible's simple response, contrary to popular belief, is congruent with actual science: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1). Jesus and lion canvas
- A creative person is required for creativity. The Hubble Space Telescope continues to discover new galaxies. Our wonderful universe astounds us. "When I consider his skies, the work of his fingers, the moon and the stars, You predestined, what is the man that You care for him and his son that you come to see him?" King David of ancient Israel asked God under the night sky." (Psalm 8:3-4). The universe, according to David, is the result of God's fingers. God created the universe, he knew. When did the universe start? What are the opinions of scientists? In a talk titled "The Beginning of Time," renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking expressed what most astronomers believe today: "The cosmos does not exist indefinitely.
Rather, the universe and time itself began roughly 15 billion years ago with the big bang."
- Rene Descartes presented "Proof of the Existence of God" in 1641. This is the line of arguments he presents in the dissertation "Meditation on the Initially Philosopher," which first appears in "Meditation III, Being" and is expanded upon in "Meditation V: On the Nature of Material Things and Again on God, That He Exists." Descartes is famous for his early arguments attempting to show God's existence, but later philosophers attacked his proof as being too narrow and dependent on "a highly problematic premise" (Hobbes) that humanity bears the image of God. In any event, comprehending them is required to comprehend Descartes' later writings, "Principles of Philosophy" (1644) and "Theory of Ideas."
- Andre Lemaire, an ancient texts expert at the French Practical School of Higher Studies, believes he has discovered proof that Jesus is genuine. James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus was etched in Arabic on an empty urinal.
- In AD 62, "the brother of Jesus, whose name was James," according to the Jewish historian Josephus of the first century, was stoned to death for apostasy. Based on this evidence, Lemaire claims that if James' bones were found in the urine a year after his death, the inscription was written about AD 63, three decades after Jesus' crucifixion. According to Lemaire, two criteria indicate that the above inscription was written during the time of Jesus. Other manuscripts from the first century AD "fit wonderfully" with this typeface. The second is Jewish burial customs: between 20 BC and 70 AD, they only buried the dead with urine.

Many other documents include even more evidence of God's existence. Proof of God's existence is also proof that our religion is always correct for us Christians.
