Is God truly real? This is an intriguing question. It is easy for a word or name to pop up in our daily lives. This word might be used in casual communications, but does God exist? There are two possible hypotheses. One hypothesis is that God never exists. The other hypothesis is, that God doesn’t exist. Some people will support this hypothesis because they believe in God from birth. But others will support it because they won’t believe in God. This is the ultimate interest. If God exists, then we should consider how to relate to the momentary dependence upon which we are dependent. Someone shook their head and asked, “Does God exist?” But they didn’t think deeply about it. If they did, however, they would acknowledge the immense impact God’s existence has on humanity. Let me give you three reasons why God is so important to us.
First, God exists so that we can feel his love. Perhaps the most important thing we can understand is that God has given us this life to help us learn and grow. It is God’s test. If God is not real, then we can’t hope for the future. In the end, God is all we have to overcome our limitations. The two world conflicts of the past century have effectively destroyed the optimism that was built up in the 19th-century for human progress. Hope is the only word that can be spoken when we face death, disease, and aging. There is no hope if God doesn’t exist. Who do we hope for? We’ll all eventually become old people or women. To pray silently to God, our hope is equal to God’s existence. We do everything in life for one reason. Everything we do is for our future. Hard work is important if you want to live longer. It doesn’t matter what we do in the end if our lives end in death. It doesn’t matter if we are alive or dead at the end. Each person’s life has its own meaning. Perhaps our meaning affects history and others. Our sacrifices are made for the greater good of all mankind. We are the race for good people in all parts of the world. All our efforts to make the world better will be in vain.
The third reason is that the universe was created. Many people aren’t aware of the existence and purpose of God. While some say the universe has an eternal existence, and that it is not special, for ordinary people like myself, I don’t think so. I was able to see the Internet information and realized the universe is infinite after I had gone through the concept of the universe. But there is a problem. It is impossible to have infinite things that are in contradiction with each other. This causes people to feel very confused. David Hilbert, David Hilbert’s most famous mathematician, stated that there is no place infinitely located in reality. It is neither valid nor exists. It is only an idea. It is possible to know that past events are limited in number and cannot be retraced forever. The universe must exist already. 13 billion years ago, the universe experienced a huge explosion. It was the beginning of all things. All matter, energy, and even time were created in the Big Bang. The universe was created by what? It is not clear where it came from. The universe must have been created for a reason. The cause of the universe’s creation was immutable, constant, eternal, and immaterial. As we know, it can’t be caused infinitely. It must be permanent, meaning it exists in all of time. It must transcend space because it created it. It must be intimate. What is the way that eternal causes can cause time effects as large as the universe? The cause must be a set or conditions that allow for mechanical operation. Otherwise, it can’t exist without its effect.
It is true that I knew this before God existed. He constantly invites and encourages us to seek him out. This problem is the reason I refuse to believe in God’s existence. Like many others, I don’t care much about this issue because I don’t believe in God’s existence. But, after I touched the philosophy class I was able learn more about God. I was shocked to see that he created us in the first place so that we would be able to know him. He provided us with evidence and put us in a position to survive. It was only when God was pressing me that I realized how important God’s topic was to me. I can still remember Sir Lewis telling me ‘… night in and night out, that I would have an uncompromising attitude no matter what, even if my mind was taken from work for a second. I hope I never meet him. I surrendered to God’s will, and I kneeled down to pray. That night may have been the most unreceptive and deadliest returnee in England. “Joy Amazing” is a book he wrote after he had come to know God. This book made me believe more in God’s existence.
