Proof for God.
A useful PROOF FOR GOD is presented here; it is founded upon objective rational observations and studies of the universe, namely the universe consists of at least these distinct consituents:
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 is used in scientific studies, and 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.
That LAW can be applied to clearly show that God truly eternally exists, bringing forth everything into existence, and fully sustaining everything in every second of time:
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.
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) do NOT ever come from NOTHING.
Out of CHAOS, NO order comes. Out of NON-LIFE, NO life comes. Out of NON-INFORMATION, NO information comes. Out of NON-LAW, NO law comes. Out of NON-COMPUTING, NO computing comes.
The PROOF FOR GOD depends upon understanding the above, so then the PROOF FOR GOD is:
We know that fundamental constituents exist in the universe (SPACE and TIME, FORCE and ENERGY, MATTER, STRUCTURES, ORDER, INFORMATION, LAWS, COMPUTING, LIFE, CONSCIOUSNESS).
ALL consituents must CO-EXIST IN A FUNCTIONAL MANNER for the life and consciousness consituents to exist and function.
If just one consituent was missing, the life and consciousness consituents would NOT exist, would NOT function, would NOT work.
Calling upon the application of the LAW OF NON-CONTRADICTION, critical consituents can NOT come from nothing ON THEIR OWN, by their own volition.
Therefore critical consituents would NOT exist if NOTHING existed.
Thus, something existed and caused and created and established and built the consituents so that they would co-exist.
Since all consituents MUST co-exist in a coordinated, functional manner, then each consituent had to be established as a DISTINCT CONSITUENT ESSENTIALLY CONCURRENTLY.
Something produced ALL consituents so they would properly work together.
This something MUST pre-exist before the consituents existed.
This something MUST have COMPLETE POWER over the consituents.
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.
God MUST be PRESENT both in the universe and beyond and outside the consituents 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.
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 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?
