THE REALITY OF GOD

WHAT IS "GOD"?

WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCE IS THERE?

• Direct Evidence/Circumstantial-Testimony, logic, biblical, or scientific
• Eye witness-Someone who experienced, seen or felt the existence of God.
• Testimony from Experts/Authority-Priests, theologians, philosophers, scientists
• Historical facts-Instances of God's existence in the world or universe

GATHERED EVIDENCE

• Direct:" We love one another becuase God loved us first, belief in love is belief in God."
• This shows why we love one another. Love is a supernatural term and belief in it is belief in god.

EYE WITNESS

• There have been thousands of witness of miracles across the world like "Mary's tear".
• Miracles are defined as divine intervention and show intervention from a superior
• thing or being. It shows that something supernatural must have occurred and made intervention.

TESTIMONY

• "The truth and love that God offers is universal for all people, not reducible to relativism.
• It is also a truth and love that contains the mysteries beyond the universe as well, and is therefore beyond the
• universe as well, and is therefore beyond the measurability scales of scientism. The key, therefore, to the
• right way of knowing truth is through God. This is born of an encounter with this loving God, and faith in
• this God. As we have seen earlier in the encyclical, faith gives us "new eyes" to see and experience reality."

HISTORICAL FACTS

• "To the west, Egyptian, Sumarian, Babylonian and other civilizations have extensive and intricate
• links between nature and the divine."
• -This historical quote shows that even most of the ancient civilizations believed in a similar "God".

CONCLUSION

• Based on these points, my position stands that a God does exist.
• I found proof through my analysis based on my various evidence gathered.
• All points put together point to the definite proof of existence of a god.
