What would change for you if your god decided to prove it's existence clearly to you?
Stretch your mind a bit, if possible. I know that whole christian religion thing is base of faith and believe but imagine this might finally happen. What would it do or mean to you?
Faith does not mean God doesn't reveal Himself to us. It means we come to Him on His terms. He has proven Himself to me over and over during my life, otherwise I'd still be lost.
What it means to me is everything, and it's why I'm devoted and loyal to Him. When Peter asked Christ to bid him to come to Jesus on the water if it was Him, Peter's first step was on faith. If Peter never stepped out of the boat then he could have summed it up to a trick...
Stepping out of the boat is the first step, and you won't believe He is real until you are walking on the water yourself. It's up to the person to step out the boat before proof is able to be given.
Faith isn't blind faith. If it were, Christ would have told people they don't need miracles, yet He told the Pharisees that if they didn't believe His words for the words sake, at least believe in Him because of the good works [miracles] He done so they could be saved.
God is my everything.. BECAUSE when I searched for Him He has proven Himself to be there for me.
And it means more than life to me.
I have faith in God. Some people use their unbelief to mean disrespect. Christians do not have to do that. Nothing would change.
My faith tells me nothing would change, but everything would be confrimed.
I was uncomfortable with the writing of your question; He became you god, but He is my God. I oftent wonder why people think Christians must prove anything.
If you choose not to believe that is your business. We will pray for you and keep moving forward.
Stay Well
"But imagine this might finally happen." In the Christian faith if will finally happen and all, including those who now don't believe, will become believers! Even demons believe (James 2:19). But to answer the question: for the Christian, absolutely nothing would change. St. Augustine: "Faith is to believe in what you do not yet see; the reward for faith is to see what you have believed." My bet is with faith and a God who is very real beyond any doubt in my mind.
I'm pretty sure if the supreme creator of the universe, of all that exists, ever existed, and ever will exist, if He came down, I'd probably explode. Not joking. Seeing Him would probably kill a mortal.
If I didn't die, I'd do WHATEVER he asked.
It is funny to me that you asked this question and then your description points directly to Christians. But, I read your question again and if you say your god and then only put Christians in the description, you must be a believer as well. So let me say my God is not just any god - He is the only God. He is not an it's because that mean it is and there is no need for Him to prove His existence. I believe in Him; therefore He is. I am not sure where you are going with this question. But what is your answer?

Can you, without quoting or referencing the Bible give me solid arguments as to the existence of GodDon't even mention the Bible! It is totally irrelevant and is not a credible source. It was not written by God, but men. So, without aid of your Bible, prove to me that God exists!

What makes someone who wants to believe in a God incapable?No matter how much I want to be part of the majority my brain just doesn't allow for the belief in a God. What is different about the brains of non believers (or maybe it's just me) that makes me/us incapable of belief even when their is a...

Many believers like to say that Atheists should prove that there is no God. Believers should know that existence has to be proved, not the non-existence. If a thing exists, it is possible to prove its existence. So believers should prove the existence of God if he exists. But if they want to do it,...

I refuse to prove that I exist, says God, for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It proves you exist, and so therefore, you don't," "Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and...
