Prove there is a God.

I'm creating this thread to see if I myself can try to answer questions that question or even contradict myself and the religion that I believe in.

Here's how it goes, all of you ask me questions about Christianity, and I'll try my best to answer them with the little theological knowledge that I know.

even if i agreed with u there, god isn't anything like teachers or the government. we can see teachers and the government, there isn't any question to whether they exist or not.

i still don't see the purpose of humans serving him. what does that do for him? he made us just so we could serve him? i don't see why someone all powerful would need anyone to serve him.

No, but that's only because they don't love you like God loves you.

Like I said, you don't have to see a purpose in serving him. It's usually felt rather than seen. You don't see atoms and DNA, but yet we've managed to get a general idea of them and even draw pictures of them. Are you sure atoms exist?

yes, but WHY do u serve him. do u serve him only because if u don't u will go to hell? that's what i'm not understanding.

Answers will be different for many.

If you want to know why I serve God; it's because I've received his calling to serve him. Eventually, man will question whether or not his life was lived according to what he was meant to do.

Many in life will question and doubt their existence in the world because they're unsure if what they've done in their entire life was "worth it."

Millions can feel like a millionaire and yet feel like having nothing.

I heard, I answered. Real simple for me.

Also, what does serving God do for God? Not much. If we don't glorify him and worship him, some others will. I can't find the verse right now, but the Scripture says, if we don't worship him, the rocks of the world will. Personally, I'd rather be faster on doing something than a rock will.
