Download or read book The Philosophical Scientific and Historical Evidence for God written by David Scott Nichols M.D. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-12-28 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Evidence for God For approximately one hundred years, most secular scientists and the majority of the intelligentsia in the world have “preached” that God does not exist. Darwin’s book, The Origin of the Species, published in 1859, was the primary impetus for this change in our world’s viewpoint away from God. Today, many leaders in academia look at Christians (and others who believe in God) as bereft of intelligence. At the onset of the 20th century, there was very little scientific evidence to suggest that God was the Creator of the Universe. However, since 1917, amazing evidence has been discovered in the fields of cosmology and biology that a significant number of secular scientists admit points to an incredible Creative Force; most call this Force, God. The Philosophical, Scientific, and Historical Evidence for God presents this evidence in a detailed, yet understandable, manner. This book, Dr. Nichols’ eleventh on theology, provides well-researched information showing the ever-increasing evidence for an omnipotent Creator. He considers it to be the magnum opus of his writing career. The significance of the Big Bang theory and the many weaknesses now recognized in the theory of evolution will be thoroughly reviewed. Philosophical and historical evidence for God will also be presented. Dr. Nichols is convinced that an open-minded reader will come away with the realization that God does, indeed, exist, and that He is the God of the Holy Bible.

Download or read book Science Discovers God written by Ariel Adrean Roth and published by Autumn House Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does God exist? Did a Master Designer create our universe, or did life spontaneously evolve? Can science retain objectivity in the search for truth while allowing for the possibility that God exists? Does it make any difference? Ariel A. Roth, scientist and Christian believer, examines key issues related to the God question: * the intricate organization of matter in the universe * the precision of the forces of physics * the complexity of the eye and the brain * the elaborate genetic code * the disparity between the fossil record and the vast amount of time necessary for evolution Faced with so much evidence that seems to require a God in order to explain what we find in nature, why does the scientific community remain silent about God? Hypotheses and speculations that attempt to fit data into a predetermined conclusion abound. What overriding influence prevents scientists from following the data of nature wherever it may lead?
Download or read book Lines of Evidence How Recent Science Infers the Existence of God written by Rick Jory and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2023-08-18 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secular science demands we accept the philosophical dogma of scientific materialism—that only material entities exist. Yet recent science has discovered the immaterial! Also mandated is the assumption that all things must be explained by natural causes. But we now are certain that the universe had a beginning. There was a time when “nature” didn’t exist—and yet we must attribute the origin of the universe to nature! And what about Darwin’s theory of evolution—taken as fact that every plant and animal owe its origin to a common ancestor and naturalistic causes. At the time of Darwin, over a century and a half ago, no one knew the true complexity of the cell. We now know the simplest of living organisms has 159,662 base pairs of DNA and 182 protein-coding genes. What naturalistic cause put all of this together? Could this be assembled by blind, purposeless accident? What does recent science have to say? And what about recent discoveries in origin-of-life research? Do we now know enough to suggest life could not have created itself? A lot is happening in today’s science that is best explained through the Christian worldview. Let’s see what some of today’s scientists are now saying.

Download or read book Connecting Christ written by Paul Louis Metzger and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a multifaith society: an ever-growing, diverse cultural climate, where no religion is viewed as having a monopoly on truth. It is important when that Christ-followers not only share the Word of God but also listen and learn how to interact meaningfully with those of diverse perspectives as we engage in life’s most important conversations. Connecting Christ encourages believers to be not only better communicators and witnesses but also listeners to people of other worldviews and traditions—skills that are crucial in defending against today’s negative connotations and ineffective approaches associated with Christian evangelism. With extensive commentary from leaders of various walks of faith and life — from Judaism to Islam and Buddhism to atheism —theologian and author Dr. Paul Louis Metzger offers a spiritual compass to help navigate the intimidating yet critical dialogue of conveying our faith in Christ. Filled with practical guidance and insight into controversial topics, such as hell, fascism, and homosexuality, Connecting Christ reveals that there is a way of evangelizing that is neither disengaging monologue nor silent, lifestyle ministry but is, instead, an approach for evangelism and dialogue to go hand-in-hand. We must remove ourselves as the stumbling block to salvation for others and embrace a way to proclaim the uncommon, compassionate God revealed in Jesus Christ—the Savior this world is dying to know.

Download or read book Stand for God written by Richard Long and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-05-26 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a Christian, have you ever been asked questions about your faith and were stumped without an answer? How can you prove that God exists without using the Bible as a reference? If you’re a non-Christian and in pursuit of knowing the truth, wouldn’t you like to know if there is proof of God’s existence? Stand for God is an introduction into Christian apologetics. Christian apologetics is where an apologist gives evidence for Christianity, defends God’s existence, and provides evidence that Jesus of Nazareth was the Son of God. We tackle some of the world’s hardest questions, such as the following: - Where did the universe come from? - Where do humans come from? - How can we know Jesus was who He claimed to be? - Do miracles exist? - How old is the universe? - Does evil disprove God? - Why do bad things happen to good people? - Did Jesus really rise from the dead? - Does evolution disprove God? Paul the Apostle says, But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them nor be troubled, but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense (apologia) to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is within you: yet do it with gentleness and respect. (1 Peter 3:15) Apologetics is derived from apologia, which is Greek for “to give a defense.” Are you ready to be able to defend your faith? God Exists. Prove Me Wrong.

Book excerpt: “Beautifully written, expertly researched and masterfully presented, this tour of how heaven has been understood throughout history is absolutely fascinating.” —James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage A smart and thought-provoking cultural history of heaven. What do we think of when we think about heaven? What might it look like? Who or what might be there? Since humans began to huddle together for protection thousands of years ago, these questions have been part of how civilizations and cultures define heaven, the good place beyond this one. From Christianity to Islam to Hinduism and beyond, from the brush of Michelangelo to the pen of Dante, people across millennia have tried to explain and describe heaven in ways that are distinctive and analogous, unique and universal. In this engrossing cultural history of heaven, Catherine Wolff delves into how people and cultures have defined heaven over the centuries. She describes how different faiths and religions have framed it, how the sense of heaven has evolved, and how nonreligious influences have affected it, from the Enlightenment to the increasingly nonreligious views of heaven today. Wolff looks deep into the accounts of heaven to discover what’s common among them and what makes each conception distinct and memorable. The result is Beyond, an engaging, thoughtful exploration of an idea that is central to our humanity and our desire to define an existence beyond death.

Thoroughly updated throughout, this second edition explores religious traditions from around the world and provides insights from across the sciences, making this book essential reading for all those wishing to come to their own understanding of some of the most important debates of our day.
Download or read book New Wine Skins written by Allen A. Sweet and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-07-19 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two thousand years ago Jesus came to establish the kingdom of God. Jesus came not to judge us but to save us, as Pogo the comic strip character put it “From our selves”. Too many of us have hate in our hearts where there should be love, greed in our hearts where there should be generosity, and hard heartedness in our hearts where there should be compassion. The list goes on. Jesus spells out how to enter the kingdom of God by accomplishing, by God’s grace, the emotional “Flip” within us from following the evolutionary selfish emotions of our genetic forbears, to embracing the dual emotions of God’s own virtues. Jesus spoke God’s truth in parables based on the agricultural nature of life in his time. We recast Jesus’ emotional dualisms into the scientific understanding of our present age.
