How Do I Know God is Real

How do I know God is real, scripture is true and Christ’s resurrection really happened?

  • There has to be a creator to have made our complex universe so large, beautiful and intricately made working together in harmony. This is to say that the things God made, such as our bodies, work in harmony, but what worldly people do seldom results in harmony. Worldly mankind tends to create discord, born out of greed, lust or pride but God creates harmony in His works and in scripture.
  • The resurrection is proved in that: There was a sudden change in the attitude of the disciples and in people in general. The disciples, who were discouraged after the death of Christ, suddenly became energized and powerful witnesses. There were over 500 people who personally saw the risen savior.
     1Co 15:4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures;
    1Co 15:5 and that He was seen by Cephas, then by the Twelve.
    1Co 15:6 Afterward He was seen by over 500 hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until this present day, but also some fell asleep.
    1Co 15:7 Afterward He was seen by James, then by all the apostles.
  • Rome reacted to the resurrection of Christ. After Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by many, Rome thought they better find out who he really was. Investigations and interviews were conducted with those who were involved with Christ. The actions of Pilate and Herod Antipas, for the death of John the Baptist, were called into question. Reports were written for the Roman Senate to review. Eventually, records found their way to Constantine in 337 AD and later to the Vatican in Rome. Doctors McIntosh and Twyman worked on studying those scrolls relating to the records of the Sanhedrin and the Talmuds of the Jews and produced a book called “The Archko Volume” about 1887. The accounts add further insight to the happenings of that time and in no way conflict with scripture.
  • Our present calendar was even begun in a way that honors Christ’s birth and death with “BC” and “AD” added. This has never happened for any other individual throughout history.
  • The gospel and worship of Christ has persevered over 2000 years and was foretold by scripture long before he was born. A remnant of believers has always remained to witness to future generations.
  • God did many miracles through Christ when He walked on earth and God still creates miracles that we cannot explain today. One of the greatest miracles is that of how people are changed for the better in personality and goals when they receive Christ in their hearts. God’s power is also evident in how He strengthens people emotionally to be over comers no matter what trial or temptation is encountered. Prayer coupled with humble obedience to Christ’s words, faith and patience works
  • Followers of Christ when empowered by the Holy Spirit spoke in tongues, on the day of Pentecost, which they had never learned but which were understood by other peoples present.
  • Scripture prophecies are true and valid and still are coming to pass.
  • Archeological digs continue to prove the validity of scripture. Noah’s ark has been found in Turkey. Multiple writings of scripture and artifacts found in several countries agree with each other in content and the telling of biblical events and peoples. The site of the Tower of Babel has been found in Iraq.
  • Christ fulfilled over 80 prophecies about him as Savior. He could not have influenced these prophecies because they were translated into the Greek Septuagint 200 to 300 years before Christ was born.
  • Do you still have a hard time believing? Then just accept Christ by faith. God has provided you faith for that purpose. 
    Rom 12:3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think. But set your mind to be right-minded, even as God has dealt to every man the measure of faith.
  • Since becoming a Christian, God has personally blessed me in countless ways throughout life and has greatly drawn me to Jesus and the truths He shared in scripture.
