Just take a look at all the nature that surround us and the stars in the sky above our head. the earth rotates around the sun and it takes 365 days to go all around the sun.
people are born and die on this earth and the earth goes on rotating around the sun.




Yes. God made the forest which is for worship. But then man goes and cuts it down to build their own cathedral which they think is better.

There is a higher being or power but I doubt it cares about people.

True God is not nameless. His name is Jehovah. --De 6: 4; Ps 83:18. He is God
because he created all things (Ge 1: 1; Re 4:11). We cannot see God because He
is a spirit person, spirit and does not have a physical body. The true God
really exists (John 7:28), he is a person with feelings and qualities, and not a
lifeless law of nature that operates without a living legislator, he is not a
faceless force, thanks to which something develops in the course of a series of
accidents. The "American Encyclopedia" under the heading "God" says: "In the understanding of Christians, Muslims and Jews, the Supreme Being, the First Cause, and in the broad sense, as it is considered throughout the modern civilized world, a spiritual being is self-sufficient, eternal, absolutely free and omnipotent, excellent from matter, created by him in a variety of forms, preserved and controlled by him. "(The Encyclopedia Americana. 1956. T. 12. S. 743).

Evidence for the existence of a "living God". The existence of God is attested to by the order, power, and complexity of creations, macroscopic and microscopic, and by the fact that God has maintained a relationship with his servants throughout history. Looking into the so-called Book of Creation, scientists learn a lot, and you can learn something from a book only if it was written by a reasonable author.

In Islam the Qur'an refers to Allah as the Lord of the Worlds. Unlike the biblical Yahweh (Jehovah), He has no personal name, and his traditional 99 names are really epithets. These include the Creator, The Giver of Gifts, The Provider, The Judge, The All-Knowing, The Omniscient, The All-Hearing, The All-Seeing, The Exceedingly Forgiving, The Most Generous, The Most Esteemed, The Watchful, The Responsive One, The Absolute Truth, The All-Strong, The Giver of Life, The Bringer of Death, etc.

Yes there definitely is a True and Living God.

Man can not disprove He doesn't exist.

We'll all be judged by him one day, for your life lived here on Earth.

Is God, Your God or the God someone else told you about and asked you to believe in?

Is your belief in Your God based on rewards and punishments or experience in reality?

Does your morality stem from what you have been taught about your religion or from understanding morality itself?

Is your belief as strong as you think or does your faith get trialed and tested?

Do you truly have "Free Will" if you need a book to tell you how to think and live?

Is it "True Faith" if it requires constant reaffirmation?

There is a higher being or power but I doubt it cares about people.

I have to agree with Kay.
The Universe is vast.
People are but a very small piece of that vastness.

What many define as their God is not how I define God.

We know that God exists through biblical prophesy. All prophesies will come to pass, says the LORD. And He also Challenges us to proof otherwise, for He is the only One who can discern the past from the future.

[Isaiah 34:16] Seek ye out of the book of the LORD (Holy Bible), and read: no one of these (prophecies) shall fail, none shall want her mate (there is no other book in the world, that can match the bible): For my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them (Gods wisdom is infinite).

We must read the bible to learn about God and his creations, and get the proper knowledge and understanding that He does exist. See also [Rev. 1:3].

People are responsible for their own happiness.

For those who believe in the loving God, God helps guarantee they receive what is what they believe is good, while for those who do not believe in God, God has no effect on them. One can rest in that because it is scientifically measurable.

Not only does God exist, but They (singular) are also loving.

They exist, and They are a Higher Power.

Indeed, God is and he is loving. And not only that: God has many qualities.

Anyone who believes in God has hope for the best.
And the one who does not believe in God, does not recognize Him, denies His
existence, what does he have, what can he count on?
No matter what!

What is faith, what do you think?

It is scientifically proven that those who believe in a higher power withstand illness and other adversities without harm more often statistically than those who don’t. One can call it the placebo effect, a positive attitude, or relationship with God. The truth is, it works.

Faith is an important lifelong skill, regardless of measurements, miracles, sensations, etc. One would have to be crazy not to have faith; faith builds life.

Hebrews 11: 1 (New World Translation) says what faith is:
"Faith is the assured expectation of what is hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities that are not seen."

Thanks. I see that is an important distinction between the meaning of faith and belief.

Confidence and competence are good in belief and life. Unless one is just dreaming or playing pretend.

Aren't you dreaming?
About the future, about your plans, desires ...?
Dreaming is not bad, especially if the dreams have a solid foundation. My dreams are based on the promises of God.

And pretending is disgusting.
But I will not convince anyone that I am not pretending.
It is enough that God sees and knows that I am not pretending.

I agree with you, most of the time pretending is not a good thing; however, every so often it can be fun.
