I didn't ask you if you require undeniable proof. I asked if you can provide or offer undeniable proof that the God of the Bible didn't begin to exist.First, I don't require undeniable proof of anything. You do, however, and I just wanted you to have to live up to your own standards for once.Can you offer undeniable proof that God didn't begin to exist? Since you can't, then by your logic, God must have began to exist at some point in time.
I don't require undeniable proof that God exists. I only require enough to convince me.
I know. "because by definition, God was never created". What if I posit that there is a thing called nature which by definition was never created. If it could be proven to exist, then it would be very easy to prove that this nature I speak of was never created.Secondly, while I cannot prove that God does exist, its actually quite easy to prove that if he does exist, then he never began to exist at some point in time.
When you say something must have created the universe, do you mean there must have been a cause behind its coming into existence or do you mean that someone willfully created the universe? If the latter, when did God actually create the universe? Approximately how many thousands of years ago?The universe consists of all space and time. As current science points towards a singularity from which the universe originated, and there was no time or space prior to the singularity, something must have created it. That something must transcend time and space, as something within time and space can create neither. God fits the definition perfectly, and He possesses the power and will to perform such an action. Beginning to exist is also an action that requires the presence of time. If God is outside of time, He can never begin to exist, as that would place Him within time.
Is it possible for one to have a relationship with God but not know it is God with whom they have this relationship?No, but it is entirely possible to believe that an omniscient and omnipotent being exists and still refuse to have a relationship with it.Is it possible to have a relationship with God while at the same time believing that it is impossible for a fully omniscient & omnipotent being to exist?
Please explain how one listens to God if God doesn't make any sounds?No it does not. Following God means listening to Him, talking to Him, and trying to live for Him as best as possible. Trying not to sin is a by-product of the relationship, not the focus.Does "following God" = not sinning?
Please explain how one talks to God if God doesn't have ears to hear with?
Let's zero in on those who know with 100% certainty that God exists.Yes. By the Holy Spirit we know the existence of God. However, just because we know something doesn't mean we can prove it, and just because we can't prove it doesn't mean we don't really know it or it isn't real.Does anyone actually know with 100% certainty that God exists?
Do those people have faith that God exists?
Is Christianity for those people faith based or knowledge based?
How do those people have 100% certainty that God exists?
How many such people exist?
