InChrist

But it made me wonder and have nothing to do with the debate, it was just something that struck me as being interesting to know. So what exactly made people here on the forum convinced about the truth of their beliefs. So what were the single most convincing argument or evidence for you to come to believe in a God?
(This is not meant as a debate thread, but merely out of curiosity)
I was raised Catholic. I think I always believed there was a God out there somewhere. I guess I knew some things that were supposed to be about God, but I never knew God or lived as if God really existed or mattered. For the most part, God was irrelevant. In my later twenties I did begin trying various spiritual paths and religions and did a lot of reading. I got pretty good at being religious.
But then I met Jesus Christ and was changed and transferred from the kingdom of darkness into His kingdom.
The video linked below where the speaker shares the moment he met Jesus (between the 5:15 - 6:00 minute mark) is how it was for me realizing the presence of Jesus and my need for Him as Savior, except that I was at home, not in a church, not listening to a pastor, but reading a book. Though my identity was in this world and I was in living in darkness, I was not homosexual, yet that moment of coming to know Jesus and being born from above to new life in Christ, was exactly the same as his.
