Show proof that your God loves you.

[assisigirl]

This would seem like an impossible task to me. Even if I believed in a God of sorts, I would find it impossible to imbue it/him with the human emotion of love. Is God-love different to human love and if it is can you give a few examples of it to explain how it works.

Show proof that your God loves you.

I don’t think I would live without God’s love. In my opinion my life is sign that God loves me. Why else he would let me live?

The same reason some kids take care of their toys... for entertainment. Which is why, if we were created by a deity, is the reason for our existence.

How do you know that it is God who lets you live? You are alive, yes. Others are not. How is that a sign of God's love? What's God got to do with it?

If you say that god loves you, this can't be proven or disproven. For example, if you say (assuming you are a straight female) that your husband loves you, how can you 'prove' it? You only can believe that you feel he loves you (and actually, only believe you feel love yourself), but never 'prove' it. I think that even the most terrible maniacs could experience love to their victims and vise versa.

Gods love is of responsiblity, not of yearning.

In this respect, love seen from a perspective of responsiblity, if he pays her bills, then he loves her.

assisigirl: This seems a bit wimpy for me 100%atheist. You seem to have fallen off the love table and into the realm of the CSI Miami people. If a man buys flowers for a woman there is a credible chance that he loves her, especially if he knows she likes flowers. Love is real. Is God's love real. That is the question.

Either that, or he just doesn't care if you live or die, and it's just easier to let you go your own way.

[1213]

1213, does that meen that God has let die all those who God does not love?

I don’t think so. And if we speak about Bible God, then we should also remind that body is only like a vessel to spirit that can live even if body is destroyed.

The same reason some kids take care of their toys... for entertainment.

But I am not entertaining
So I think your option is not valid.

How do you know that it is God who lets you live?

My answer was based on assumption, if God is, then proof for his love is…
Of course if some miraculous way God does not exist, then the whole point and original question is useless.

Either that, or he just doesn't care if you live or die, and it's just easier to let you go your own way.

If we speak about Bible God, then I think that is not true. In my opinion Bible shows that God cares very much. But I understand that most people don’t see it in practice.

Just because you see yourself one way, doesn't mean that everyone shares the same view.
I also think that Goat's response is a pretty good one. Though I understand that you favor the more loving option.
Does God love me more than he loves some of your fellow Christians who have died? That would be pretty interesting.

I always feel that actions speak louder than words.. and .. well, I don't see the actions of a loving God.

I DO see the actions of a lot of people that NEED to feel like that are loved though.

If the Bible is correct, they are not necessary death, although their body has died. So, on that basis I can’t tell. And also, even though God loves, he might let some people die (for example because they don’t want to be in life).
