Belief in God: Evidence or Faith?

Belief in God: Evidence or Faith?

From God comes the truest form of love. Even within the walls of prisons, it is the atheists and devil followers who populate them. Every page of history recorded in the Bible has a wealth of historical records that confirm its accuracy. This is only possible through the miraculous intervention of the supreme being, God, who created everything with unlimited power and knowledge outside of space and time.

Subjective vs. Objective Evidence

A belief can be justified with subjective evidence, but its actions that affect the well-being of others cannot be supported by such evidence alone. Subjective evidence is merely a reflection of personal beliefs and does not hold the weight of conclusive proof. Actions driven by such evidence may still impact the lives of others, highlighting the importance of objective and verifiable evidence.

The Evidence of God

The evidence of God is all around us, in every aspect of the universe. From the planets, stars, moons, and sun to animals, birds, and trees, God's creation is a testament to His omnipotence and omniscience. Without a supreme being with unlimited knowledge and power, it is difficult to explain the existence of anything beyond our own human capabilities.

Key Attributes of God

God is the logos of everything. He is the one who created us and sustains us, yet we, as humans, cannot claim to have created ourselves. This is why God is considered the supreme being. Some of His key attributes include:

Unlimited Knowledge Immunity to Time and Space All-Powerful Beginning and End of All Alpha and Omega, the Bright and Morning Star King of Kings and Lord of Lords The Rose of Sharon Allah, Yahweh, God Almighty, our Savior, Friend, Jehovah, the Great I Am, our Lord

Ultimately, the final destination for every human being is either heaven or hell. The question remains: where will you end up? Will your eternal abode be marked by faith or disbelief? This is the central question of existence according to many religious beliefs.

The Higgs Boson vs. God: A Parallel Discussion

Twenty years ago, I could not say with certainty whether the Higgs boson existed, simply because there wasn't definitive proof to support its existence. Similarly, regarding the existence of God, I did not hold firm beliefs based on the absence of objective evidence at that time.

Fast forward to today, and the Higgs boson has been discovered, providing the evidence I once lacked. However, when it comes to the existence of God, the evidence remains elusive or non-existent. It's ironic to think that a tiny particle, the Higgs boson, can be detected with the most powerful tools, while the entity responsible for the creation of the universe remains hidden.

Why is God, whom even believers acknowledge as possessing immense power, not showing Himself? Is He incapable, shy, or afraid? These questions challenge the very logic of faith. If God truly exists, it is more probable that He would provide clear and undeniable evidence of His presence. The absence of such evidence might suggest that He does not exist at all.

Implications of Belief Without Evidence

By trying to provide evidence for God, who has the capacity to show Himself, believers might inadvertently suggest that He does not exist. This irony underscores the tension between faith and evidence. It is a challenge for believers to reconcile their faith with the absence of concrete proofs, which some may interpret as a sign of God's specificity or a test of perseverance.

In conclusion, while subjective evidence can justify a belief, the actions and well-being of others require objective evidence. The absence of clear evidence for God's existence raises questions about His existence and the basis of religious faith. The Higgs boson, on the other hand, provides a tangible example of how evidence can be gathered, contrasted with the hypothetical scenario of God showing Himself. This complex interplay between belief and evidence continues to intrigue and challenge both believers and non-believers alike.
