The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. ~ Psalm 19:1

The word "proof" might be a misnomer; perhaps "evidence" would have been more appropriate for me to use. However, many people tend to confuse the two words. The reality is no one can prove God, and no one can disprove God. I can give you evidence of God in hopes it helps you realize there is a God, but "proof"Is an impossibility that even God does not support. God requires faith above proof. Before I go on to the evidence, let me explain proof versus faith in God's economy.

No one can prove or disprove the existence of God. The most we can do is present evidence and arguments for the existence of God. I will provide a short list of evidence supporting the existence of God, but there are numerous resources available on the internet extensively covering this topic—that can help.

Existence of the Universe: The fact that there is something rather than nothing is evidence of a creator. The presence of the universe, with its precise laws and constants, suggests that there must be a creative force or intelligence behind it. The fact that we exist with all our complexity marks a creator.

Designer: The complexity and order in the universe imply a purposeful Designer. The fine-tuning of the constants of nature to allow for life is evidence of intelligent design.

Historical Evidence: History suggests the existence of Jesus, as numerous historians have documented this fact in their writings.

The Bible is a sacred text that contains teachings, stories, and accounts of divine interactions with humanity. It contains prophecies that have materialized. The Bible has stood the test of time.

The disciples' remarkable transformation from ordinary individuals into passionate advocates of Jesus' teachings, their unwavering commitment to spreading his message despite times of persecution, and their reported encounters with the risen Christ are compelling evidence of divine intervention or inspiration.

Morality: The origins of moral values can only be accounted for by the existence of a moral lawgiver, which could only begin with a perfect God. Without a transcendent source, morality would be subjective and relative.

Without a perfect God, who would determine right from wrong, and why would their judgment hold authority? Many people believe that morality naturally evolved to promote human survival—if that is the case, we are not doing so well.

Morality is much more complicated than human survival. Is it wrong to kill in war, put someone to death, do tests on animals, and abort children? Is it morally incorrect to do and be an example of someone who does drugs, watches pornography, and consumes alcohol? Is it wrong to be greedy, and if so, how do we determine greed over ambition?

To reach a moral decision, we must engage in discussion, consider multiple perspectives, empathize with others, and apply reasoning, striving for a consensus that reflects our shared values and principles. Try doing that with over 8 million people. Why do conflicts arise, wars erupt, and various forms of harm are inflicted upon one another? All because individuals struggle to agree on one standard.

Origins of Languages: Either language origins began with grunting that moved on to becoming complex grammar and sentences or, as the Bible states, God created it.

Origin of Love: For many, love is believed to have evolved through physical and social processes. But how can we conceive of something so profound existing without a starting point? The Bible teaches that God is love—thus, love began with God.

The Purposelessness of Life: Without God, it is challenging to discern a meaningful purpose for our existence. Humans are born, live, and then pass away, leaving behind only fleeting memories in the hearts of those they believe they touched. While some believe our purpose here on earth is to impact others and the world positively, if that is the case, looking at the world, we are failing. Defining our existence without acknowledging a divine framework is akin to attempting to make a book significant without a clear beginning or end.

Everything we construct serves the purpose of survival and comfort—often to boost our egos. The lives we are creating are nothing more than the Titanic, a vessel destined for destruction. Regardless of the magnitude of the lives we build, they are ultimately bound for an iceberg—destined to sink. Life must hold greater significance than constructing sandcastles washed away by the tides.

The War Within: Two parts within us wrestle against each other, creating an internal conflict inherent in human nature. One part strives for independence, while the other longs for someone to care for and hold them. A part of us believes we can accomplish anything, yet another part wonders how we made it through the day without falling apart. There is a part of us that thinks it knows everything, while another grapples with the feeling that we know nothing. A tragic part of us wants to rebel and deny God, while deep within our soul, another part longs to find a place where we truly belong.

What people are failing to realize is that these two parts represent the spirit striving to come back to life and the flesh fighting against it. Our nature resists the idea of God, refusing to consider, examine, or investigate the evidence. Our dual nature leaves us in an oxymoronic position, grappling with internal contradictions. We find ourselves engaged in conflict with a God whom one part of us denies.

There is plenty of other evidence of God, but I wanted to point out some of the main ones only.
