I have been challenged to use observations and science to prove God exists. What a fool. One needs only look at the miracle of creation to see the hand of God. However, God does not seek to prove His existence. What God does want is faith.
Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Faith is not merely something we have, faith in God is a way of life. We literally live by faith. How do I know God is real? To begin with, I have a brain, I think, I reason and I can see the work God has done which no natural process or action of evolution could create.

1 Cor 2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

Faith will never be understood by those who are willingly ignorant of the existenance of God. 
Gal 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Having a law to live by or a set of things to do or not do does not make one just and it does not make one whole. It is only salvation by grace through faith which can make us just and whole. The law or the rules are only there to show us our need for salvation. 
Heb 11:1-2 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (2) For by it the elders obtained a good report.
I don't expect someone who is not saved to understand this, but my faith in God has allowed God to prove Himself to me. 
Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Faith is a simple concept. We must believe in God to please Him.

Now, my question for all of you scoffers will be a simple one. Explain gravity. How does it work. What makes it work. How do you know it exists? You can observe gravity but can you explain how it works?
