What Is the Evidence That God Exists?
1) Direct Answer
Yes. God’s existence is plainly shown. The Bible says He has made Himself known in creation, in conscience, in His Word, in Jesus Christ risen from the dead, and by the present witness of the Holy Spirit.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- Creation declares Him
- “The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1).
- “The invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen… even His eternal power and Godhead” (Romans 1:20).
- “Every house is builded by some man; but He that built all things is God” (Hebrews 3:4).
- Conscience and the moral law
- The law is written in the heart; conscience bears witness (Romans 2:15).
- God set eternity in man’s heart (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
- He is not far from any of us, that we should seek Him (Acts 17:27-28).
- The Scriptures and fulfilled prophecy
- God declares the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:9-10).
- The prophets spoke by the Holy Ghost (2 Peter 1:21).
- The promised Messiah: His birth (Micah 5:2), His suffering (Psalm 22; Isaiah 53), fulfilled in Jesus (Luke 24:44).
- Jesus Christ—God manifested and risen
- “God was manifest in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16).
- Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day, seen by many witnesses (1 Corinthians 15:3-8; Acts 2:32).
- The Holy Spirit’s present witness
- The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit (Romans 8:16).
- God confirms His Word with signs following (Mark 16:20; Hebrews 2:4).
- New birth changes lives: “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature” (2 Corinthians 5:17).
- Prayer answered and bodies healed (James 5:15; Mark 11:24; Psalm 34:6).
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
- Design requires a Designer. Order, law, and life do not rise from nothing. If every house has a builder, how much more the universe (Hebrews 3:4).
- A moral law in the heart points to a Moral Lawgiver. If there is no God, why does conscience accuse and excuse?
- Prophecy is God’s signature. Men cannot foretell centuries ahead with precision; God can and did.
- An empty tomb and transformed witnesses point to a living Christ, not a dead religion (1 Corinthians 15).
- A dead idol cannot answer, but the living God answers prayer, breaks bondage, and fills with the Holy Spirit. You see the effect because the Cause is real.
4) Reinforcing Statement
If you will seek Him, you will find Him. The Bible says, “Ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13). Come to Him in repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, and God will make Himself known to you.

Personal experience with God
54-0724 §23
God said, in the last days, that His Spirit would be poured out from on high, and He'd show visions, and signs, and wonders in the earth, and all these different things. God promised to do it. And if God promised to do it, He's obligated to take care of it. Don't you believe that? Yes, sir. He certainly is. And then when this... I've noticed again, one time, a little old nightingale, that I used to ... when I pastored the Baptist church. I used to come in at nighttime, and that little fellow would sit there, and he...
Have faith in God

Now we could take that from a dozen different angles tonight, of being the Jewish nation that was cursed and many... Every word of God written is inspiration and it hooks the whole Bible together, on every word in the Bible. It's the most wonderful book that was ever written. There's never a piece of literature ever written like the Bible. It's the only book in existence tells you where you come from, who you are, and where you're going. We've got libraries full, and streets full, and book rooms full, but never one...
An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages
CAB 5:E-84
The polytheistic religion of the enemy began with the trinitarian doctrine. It was way back there in antiquity that the "one God in three persons" idea came into existence. How strange that our modern theologians have not spotted this; but evidently just as duped by Satan as their forebears were, they still believe in three persons in the Godhead. Let us be shown just one place in Scripture where there is any authority for that doctrine. Is it not strange that while the descendants of Ham went on their way in Satan...
The power of decision
55-1007 §70
Father, the One that said, "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, by it the elders obtained a good report." We understand that the world was made out of things that does not appear. How God, before there was even a earth here, just spoke the Word and dust and dirt and rocks and corrosions come into existence because God said. I can see His Word flying from His lips, going out through that darkness yonder, and the atoms begin to break, and the world come into existence. That sa...
Jehovah-Jireh
56-1209E §65
And this ram, a hundred miles from civilization, up on top of the mountain where there's no water, and was standing there hooked by his horns. And what happened? God will provide Himself a sacrifice. God spoke the lamb into existence and five minutes later he went out of existence. God will provide a sacrifice. Anything that God has need of, He can provide it. Notice, you say it was a vision. No, it wasn't a vision; it was a lamb. He killed it and the blood ran out of it. It wasn't a vision. It was actually a lamb...
