We all know that is true.
Anyone thinking that God is not real is either delusional or do not understand the principles of Christianity.
So i basically want other Christians to share their experiences through which God reached out to them!
I've seen most of the Atheists saying that without our "I know God through my personal experience,one which i cannot prove to you." ,our whole beliefs would be non sense and it would fall apart.
Obviously this is not true,our beliefs and our personal experiences speak for itself why we Chose Christianity and God as our savior for eternity.
Personally,i think that most Atheists weren't fortunate enough to experience what we had experienced.Our experiences was proof that God existed,it was proof because he reached out to us and we could finally reach back to him.It's only fair that we share our experiences so that Atheists can have a chance to find God too.
Let's help one another find God and be in Eternal peace!
~ May the Lord Almighty be with you!
Yup, Christianity is just as true as Islam, or Hinduism, or Sikhism, or Buddhism, or Paganism, or...must I go on?

You make them sound like frightened deers in a glade. Change thread title to "Great Tribulation is Upon Us". They'll come a runnin.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Well, per extremely accurate inside believer information, divulged RIGHT HERE ON THIS DEVIL'S FORUM, the world is coming to an end right around September 15, 2015. If you recall, it was supposed to be last year on Sept. 15, but due to some calculation error, it turns out the end of the world is now, THIS year.
The world is falling apart in front of your very EYES: Obama/anti-christ/devil/atheist/Gay Marriage/Sheep Sex/New World Order/Trump for President!, etc., etc. How can you all be so BLIND?!
Only about 5 shopping weeks until the apocalypse! Better git right with the Lawd! A fore it's too late!

I've had dreams when I'm in total bliss, I'm in the imaginary world I always yearn for. They are really rare, but when they happen, it feels real like I'm finally in "heaven". And not crappy standard heaven, my own heaven. Maybe this is God showing me how happy I could be if...
If what, I'm not too sure. Drank heavily and did drugs, I expect.

I can attest to the fact that while I was a believer I was happier - this may actually be though because I was still a child and quite ignorant, and they say ignorance is bliss I believe...
So it was more of a general experience for me, then a particular one to describe. I think it was like the ultimate authority figure for me. Whenever I got into trouble and even slightly feared for my life I prayed maniacally and promised I would change my ways... Of course after everything was fine I promptly forwent those promises. Other experiences with god include saying my prayers at night whenever I remembered to do so, or when I did them with my brother, being a good little Christian and all that - he still is one, for all intents and purposes. But the praying part was more like a responsibility I felt I had than something I truly wanted to do out of a closeness to God. It was more like a chore than anything else.
But I never really got the whole churchgoing experience. I am from a mostly orthodox country and here we sit up in church, masses of people, and listen to the ceremonies, the singing and the readings from the bible, or whatever. The priests have long beards and are treated with very high esteem. It's a bloody hell for a kid, I'll tell you that much. It makes you go nuts to just sit there for hours, waiting and doing nothing but listen to incomprehensible gibberish incanted in weird tones.
I guess I never really confronted my beliefs until I met an atheist in real-life and talked to her about it. She was a classmate of mine in middle school. Her older brother was a physicist, if I remember correctly, so that may be the reason for this happy incident- I might still be a Christian to this day otherwise, and a completely different person at that too- you never know.

Okay, I'm a ex-believer. I've been lapsed for about fifty years now.
So I recall one experience with God very vividly. Walking to school in first grade I would raid my lunch to get out my Fritos corn chips to eat on the way. But being very devout I would throw every other Frito in the air, over my shoulder for God. Funny that I never checked to see if the Fritos were being eaten. I'm not sure what went wrong with my God belief. Guess I grew up or something.
