God is Real

CHANCE or a CREATOR
Let's say you are at the beach and you notice an abandoned sand castle. Whether you believe in God or not, you still know for certain that the sand castle was created by someone. There is no way anyone will believe that some sort of chance somehow created that sand castle. Most anything that comes from nature, whether it's plants, flowers, animals, insects, etc, all have a design to them. That design is impossible to be created at random. There must be a creator behind everything and that creator is God.


A daisy flower with no doubt has a design to it with geometric shapes and patterns. Modern made buildings also have shapes and designs to them. Why do people choose to believe that the daisy flower was somehow created by some sort of chance and the building was not? The truth is that everything has a creator.













Miracles

Miracles happen every day but sadly they are often ignored. Miracles such as cures never believed possible by doctors, someone surviving a deadly car accident happens or a baby who survives a natural disaster occurs often. All these unbelievable stories are too much to be the outcome of random chance. "There can be miracles when you believe."



Philoso
phers views on God
Philosophers say that there must be a God. The reason is that everything in the universe has a cause and nothing is self caused or self created. Let's say you take off the cap from the bottle and put it next to each other. Can the cap somehow go on top of the bottle and twist itself on there by some random chance. A simple task like that is nearly impossible to happen by some random chance unless someone does it. So how is it that our universe is so organized, how did the plants and flowers get there perfect geometric shapes, why is it that we are not too close to the sun or too far from it. This goes to show that there must be a creator behind all this.

If you see a book on the top shelf of the cabinet you know that it did not just pop in existence by itself but instead you know that someone put it there. Philosophers say "why is there something instead of nothing"

When we look at a beautiful painting we immediately know that it is a creation of a genius painter. Although we may not know who painted and when, we know for sure that it was not just painted by itself. The same applies for our world. When we look around the beauty that surrounds the world we should know that there is a creator behind it.



















"BEHIND EVERY BEAUTY THERE MUST BE A CREATOR"









Astrophysicists' views on God
In the 20th century scientists have discovered that our universe had a beginning and was not always eternal. This is relevant to the first sentence of the bible. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth from absolute nothing.” (Gen 1:1). Astrophysicists have discovered that our universe has a number of properties that are just right for life. These include the strength of the gravitational force, the amount of dark matter and energy, strength of the nuclear force that powers the sun, and more. Astrophysicists conclude that the world was not an accident but fine tuned to exist.

Biologists' views on God
Biologists believe that every living thing is an outcome of an intelligent instead of an accident. For example it is not an accident that the jaguar has black dotted patterns on its fur but rather an intelligent design.

Age of our Universe
From the beginning of the Big Bang cosmologists believe that our universe is 15 billion years old and continues to expand. On the other hand however the book of Genesis describes the universe to be only a few thousand years old. Gerald L. Schroeder, a physicist and a theologian from Massachusetts Institute of Technology published a nonfiction book known as “Genesis and the Big Bang.” In his book he describes how the bible and the theory of the Big Bang are in fact, the same realities described in vastly different terms, and that goes to show that science can be compatible with spirituality.
