I am a believer in God and i fall in the category of the experiences i have had in my life that made me believe in God. As a kid, i was raised in Christian family and so grew up into believing in God through my parents' teaching and the teachings i received in church but all that was just religion because i had not yet encountered God at a personal level.</p>\n<p>I was religious like most out there but after i went to the university and really had an encounter with God at a personal level, that was the moment my belief in God was more than just what i was told but what i understood from the encounter with him. That is when i realized i was not a believer in God but a follower of religion.</p>\n<p>To put it simply, on a personal level; i don't believe in God because i have been indoctrinated or religiously dictated to or because others do but my life and where i was and who i am right now only makes me believe that God is real and exists. I believe in him because he has proven to me that he exists and not because someone told me to.</p>\n<p>Hope this answers your question..</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"f3pzjwz9x","appParentAuthor":"kid4life","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
