God Exists

Whatever begins to exist has been caused by another (every effect has a cause).

The universe began to exist (the universe is an effect).

Therefore, the universe was caused to exist by another (universe had a cause).

We see evidence that God is real all around us in creation, laws, and life. 

The Existence of God (Hebrews 11:6; Acts 17:22-34)

Whatever begins to exist has been caused by another (every effect has a cause)

     The universe began to exist (the universe is an effect)

      Therefore, the universe was caused to exist by another (universe had a cause)

Hebrews 1:10-12 

10 And: "You, LORD, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
11 They will perish, but You remain; And they will all grow old like a garment;
12 Like a cloak You will fold them up, And they will be changed. But You are the same, And Your years will not fail."
 

The Bible is consistent with the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
 

Second Law of Thermodynamics: States “that the amount of usable energy in a closed system is running down.” The scientific name for this process is called “entropy.” If the universe was infinite, the earth would never run out of energy and be at a state of equilibrium. An infinite universe would have an infinite amount of usable energy, but our earth is running out of usable energy.

Psalms 102:25-27 Of old You laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish but You will endure; Yes, they will grow old like a garment; Like a cloak You will change them, And they will be changed. But You are the same, and Your years will have no end. (cf. Hebrews 1:10-12). The Bible is consistent with the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

The First Law of Thermodynamics - Many often use the First Law of Thermodynamics which says  “Actual Energy is neither created nor destroyed, it remains constant” to prove an infinite universe.  The law should be stated more accurately as “the amount of actual energy in the universe remains constant so far as we can observe.” This revised statement is now based on observation and not philosophy since it now makes no pronouncement of whether something can come to be and cease to be. (philosophy vs. science) 

General Theory of Relativity: Einstein’s theory provides another piece of evidence demonstrating the universe had a beginning. It reveals that time, space, and matter must have had a beginning, since they are correlative, meaning they cannot exist alone, each must be present (exist) simultaneously. Thus, if matter came into being from nothing, so did time and space, implying that they are finite and not eternal 

Jastrow’s Summary - Robert Jastrow, NASA scientist and agnostic, says, ”Science has proven that the universe exploded in to being at a certain moment. . . . Was the universe created out of nothing, or was it gathered out of preexisting materials? And science cannot answer these questions, because, according to the astronomers, in the first moments of its existence the universe was compressed to an extraordinary degree, and consumed by heat and fire beyond human imagination. . . . The scientist’s pursuit of the past ends in the moment of creation. . . . For the scientist who has lived by faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.” (God and the Astronomers, p. 114-16)

Richard Dawkins asserts that “there is enough information capacity in a single human cell to store the Encyclopaedia Britannica, all 30 volumes of it, three or four times over. . . . There is enough storage capacity in the DNA of a single lilly seed or a single salamander sperm to store the Encyclopaedia Britannica 60 times over. Some species of the unjustly called ‘primitive’  amoebas have as much information in their DNA as 1,000 Encyclopaedia Britannicas.”[1]
