[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to know if God exists, just ask Him to prove it. Like just genuinely ask “If you are real can you show me” with an open mind. If you genuinely desire to find God or some sign from him I’ll believe he’ll help you. Just try and see what happens.

I’ve heard stories of people who weren’t sure about God’s existence and they literally just asked for a sign or something because they genuinely wanted to know, and they’ve ended up being Christians. It just takes an initially leap of faith.[/quote]

Can you be specific with an example?[/quote]

Yeah, I'd love examples of how someone becomes specifically a Christian. Honestly curious.

I have had experiences where I strongly felt the presence of someone deceased -- that has helped solidify my belief in the existence of souls that continue to exist, even after our bodies die.

I had an experience when I was meditating under the guidance of a monk where I think I achieved some version of third eye awakening. That helped solidify my belief in our ability to access sensations that go beyond we can normally sense.

None of that has led me to decide I'm officially a member of any particular religion. Like I posted earlier, I like a lot of what Buddhism has to say, but Buddhists don't believe in permanent souls. I also like what Hinduism has to say about souls, but I don't know that I believe in all of the gods. I'm probably closest to some combination of the two, so I'd be interested in knowing how someone becomes a Christian solely by asking for a sign of God. [/quote]
