proof for God

A useful proof for God is presented. The proof for God is based upon objective rational observations and studies of the universe, namely the universe consists of at least these distinct arenas:

  • SPACE AND TIME -- Einstein's work in relativity proves this arena exists.
  • FORCE AND ENERGY -- scientific and physics findings proves this arena exists.
  • MATTER -- scientific and physics findings proves this arena exists.
  • LAWS -- physical, chemical, and structural laws so atoms, when made, can function -- scientific findings of the law for constituting water is 2 parts hydrogen to 1 part oxygen, the laws of thermodynamics, the laws of gravity and the motion of planets shown by Isaac Newton proves this arena exists.
  • MATHEMATICS -- since the underlying laws of physics, chemistry, and science are described by math.
  • INFORMATION -- scientific findings in DNA and RNA and genetics and chromosomes proves this arena exists.
  • STRUCTURES -- micro structures observed in blood, in bone, in cells that permit them to "work" and to "function properly" proves this arena exists.
  • ORDER -- scientific findings about how the planets orbit, cells work, the eye works, and radio active materials work manifests "order", and proves this arena exists.
  • COMPUTING -- scientific findings on DNA replication and the knowledge of when to begin and when to end the DNA replication, by way of the "coded program" manifested in the biological components, and also the human brain's ability to compute mathematically proves this arena exists.
  • LIFE -- Louis Pasteur's work on "putrefaction of living organisms" proves this arena exists.
  • CONSCIOUSNESS AND AWARENESS -- in animals, and consciousness and self-consciousness and awareness and self-awareness in humans -- scientific findings proves this arena exists.

The law of non-contradiction has been recognized for centuries and millennia in formal, objective, rational science studies; it states:

A specific rule (law, principal, object or property) cannot be at one and the same instant in time the rule (law, principal, object or property) and also NOT-the-rule (law, principal, object or property).

For example, a person cannot be at one and the same time a person and NOT-a-person; so when a person exists at a given instance in time, that person cannot both exist and NOT-exist at the same time.

The law of non-contradiction can be applied to these arenas in the following way to clearly show that God truly eternally exists, bringing everything into existence, and fully sustaining everything in every second of time:

  1. NOTHING is null void, and non-existent. It is NOTHING. There is no space, no time, no force, no energy, no matter, no structure, no order, no information, no law, no computing, no life, no consciousness in nothing. Randomness and chance are impossible in nothing, since nothing is nothing, and there is no randomness and no chance in NOTHING.
     
  2. Out of NOTHING, comes NOTHING; since nothing is nothing, then nothing can NOT even produce nothing, since it is NOTHING in the first place. Therefore, something (space and time, force and energy, matter, structures, order, information, laws, computing, life, consciousness) cannot come from NOTHING.
     
  3. Out of CHAOS, comes CHAOS; order cannot come from chaos just as from nothing, nothing can come.
     
  4. Out of NON-LIFE, comes NON-LIFE; life cannot come from non-life just as from nothing, nothing can come.
     
  5. Out of NON-INFORMATION, comes NON-INFORMATION; information cannot come from non-information just as from nothing, nothing can come.
     
  6. Out of NON-LAW, comes NON-LAW; law cannot come from non-law just as from nothing, nothing can come.
     
  7. Out of NON-COMPUTING, comes NON-COMPUTING; computing cannot come from non-computing just as from nothing, nothing can come.

The Proof for God is therefore:

  1. The study indicates that fundamental arenas exist in the universe.
     
  2. ALL arenas must co-exist in a functional manner for the life and consciousness arenas to exist and function. Even if just one arena is missing, the life and consciousness arenas would NOT exist, would NOT function, would NOT work.
     
  3. Recognizing the application of the law of non-contradiction above, critical arenas cannot come from nothing ON THEIR OWN, by their own volition; therefore those critical arenas would not exist if nothing existed.
     
  4. Thus, something existed and caused and created and established and built the arenas so that they would exist in a functional manner.
     
  5. Since all arenas MUST exist in a coordinated, functional manner, then each arena had to be established as a distinct arena essentially concurrently. Yet, since nothing produces nothing, then something produced ALL arenas essentially concurrently, in a coordinated manner so they would function together properly.
     
  6. This something MUST pre-exist before the arenas existed.
     
  7. This something MUST have COMPLETE POWER over the arenas in order for them to work properly in a coordinated manner.
     
  8. This something IS God, and God MUST be a SELF-EXISTENT POWERFUL ALL-SEEING ALL-CAPABLE ALL-WISE ALL-KIND PERSON, who brings the universe into existence for a good purpose.
     
  9. God MUST be PRESENT both in the universe and beyond and outside the arenas SIMULTANEOUSLY while EVER-SUSTAINING them so they work properly together on a daily basis.

This God IS the ONLY God, there is NO OTHER God anywhere, and God has self-revealed Himself in several ways, including:

  • The TESTIMONY of the universe to man.
  • The TESTIMONY of the prophets to man.
  • The TESTIMONY of Jesus Christ and His works to man.
  • The TESTIMONY of the Bible to man.

It is useful and advisable that we know and honor this God, the God of the universe, the God of life, the God who created and ever-cares for us.

The Bible tells the story of this loving, caring God, one we can know personally, one we can trust with our lives, with everything we have.

Are you ready to trust this God, the God who knows you and cares for you?

"O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done marvelous things, things planned long ago."
