  • Why does God exist?

    If you believe that the Universe exists because God put it here then my question is why does God exist. If your answer is that God exists because the Universe would have never have existed without God, then why did God create the Universe? If your answer to that is because God loves us and wants us to exist my question is, why does God love us?

    Good questions, I myself have questions, but I was told that there are somethings we won't know until we are in haven or hell. Not the answer I was looking for but thats the answer I got.

      What silly questions.
      God has always existed and always will.
      His plans are not for mere humans to understand.

      Can you answer these correctly:
      Why do you think YOU exist?
      And just who are you, really?

      Probably not.
      So how then could you ever begin to understand God??



      Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker!
      Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth.
      Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou?
      Or thy work, He hath no hands?
      Isaiah 45:9

        We are not to say "why", but only "because".

        BECAUSE GOD SAID SO!

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Before this time there are no references of God being created or born, so he must have always been there already. If your answer is that God exists because the Universe would have never have existed without God, then why did God create the Universe? His plans do not require your understanding. Also, as Brother SalvationSeeker clearly pointed out, it is beyond your comprehension. Only True Christians can begin to grasp His greatness through Jesus. Praise! If your answer to that is because God loves us and wants us to exist my question is, why does God love us? In the Bible (KJV1611) Genesis 1:31 states the following; And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. Now, 'every thing that he had made' also refers to mankind, which apparently God thought was very good. Perhaps this could explain why He loves (at least some of) us...
          Let that be an answer for you... Read the Bible, you might actually learn something...

          John 20:29
          Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

            Does God have a god? If so, then where did that god come from, and if God's god has a god, then does that god have a god?

              This is a good example of why God smote Onan for mental masturbation. I hope you enjoy hell.

                Did I ever tell you how much you hug? If not, then I'll you; you need one like you need food, and water.

                  OH, dear.

                  Zeke, kindly bring out the flogging instruments. We're going to have to pound the hippie lurve demons out of this one's colon.

                  B-J, if you could kindly dig out the electroshock unit . . .

                  Oh, and Nightcrawler, God exists because God exists. That is why He calls Himself "I AM".

                  Note that He does not call Himself, "I AM Because" and list a bunch of reasons to explain Himself to His creation.

                  To answer your next query, humans exist because humans exist. YOU ARE. God made you because HE FELT LIKE IT.

                  Case closed.

                    Oh dear, I nearly missed this Thread whilst I was busy trying to save dear Kiki.

                    What you should be asking yourself is why God allows YOU to exist. I'm sure he's going to kill you soon for asking such dumb questions.

                    It's simple:
                    The Bible is God's word.
                    The Bible exists.
                    Therefore if the Bible exists and was written by God then God must exist too.

                    It's as true as ... as...as...well, me sitting here Praying for your Soul.

                      That's not what God's word says!
                      More vital is that very Word of God, every word of it.
                      Praise Jesus!

                      But he answered and said, It is written,
                      Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
                      Matthew 4:4
                      If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

                        I see no reference to "hug" anywhere in that verse, Brother.

                          Exactly.
                          Infact, the word "hug" is never even mentioned in the Bible!
                          If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

                            What's so wrong about hugs? Hugs to all I say!


                            I just realized something. If God made Adam out of the Earth, then wouldn't that make Gaia his mother?

                              No.
                              Because Adam wasn't born, but created.. and earth isn't alive either.

                              And if I may make a suggestion.. Stay off the crack for atleast a little while, friend. (Though I'd rather you quit alltogether)
                              It's obviously very bad for you.
