Many people dispute the existence of God because of the way people that call themselves Christians behave in every day life. A retired friend once said to me that he would go to hell because he didn't go to church. I told him going to church didn't guarantee entrance to heaven anymore than being in a garage made us a car. Knowing God is a relationship not religion. I don't want to argue with anyone about doctrine, what they believe or don't believe, it is about free will. Jesus said that there are 2 commandments that are the most important. To love God and to love others as we love ourselves, if only these 2 things are done wars would cease and there would be peace. It has been through some of the darkest times and the valleys of life that I have sensed God's presence and peace. Because I fail and often miss the mark does that make God any less real, no! Just as we give our children boundaries and rules to protect them from harm so does our loving Father. He gives us a free will so we can choose to love Him or not and love each other or not. Love is freedom and life!

Those who have never experienced electrical shocks would not easily be convinced that electricity exists even if we cannot see the electrons moving around. God can only be substantiated as real by our human spirit in the same way that colors can only be substantiated as real by our eyes and sound can only be substantiated as real by our ears. Colors and sound would only be unreal to the blind and deaf. For this reason, people need our prayers and to hear the gospel to experience spiritual healing to make all spiritaul realities become experientially real to them..

Is there any need to argue about God and his existance?Doctrines can not add or subtract the fact that God is real.Even our thought does not utter his supremacy
