Listen "The Cosmological Argument - Episode 19"
Episode Synopsis
This week we look at the first option of how the universe came into existence by examining the Kalam Cosmological Argument and the evidence that we have on the table. Is it possible that God's great love for us led Him to create everything we see around us?Isaiah 42:5 NKJV[5] Thus says God the LORD, Who created the heavens and stretched them out, Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it, Who gives breath to the people on it, And spirit to those who walk on it:Colossians 1:16 NKJV[16] For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.Kalam Cosmological Argument:1. Whatever begins to exist as a cause. 2. The universe began to exist. 3. Therefore the universe as a cause.“A designer God cannot be used to explain organized complexity because any God capable of designing anything would have to be complex enough to demand the same kind of explanation in his own right.” Pg 136, Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion, 2006“And the higher the improbability, the more implausible intelligent design becomes. Seen clearly, intelligent design will turn out to be a redoubling of the problem. Once again, this is because the designer himself (/herself/itself) immediately raises the bigger problem of his own origin. Any entity capable of intelligently designing something as improbable as a Dutchman’s Pipe (or a universe) would have to be even more improbable than a Dutchman’s Pipe.” Pg 146, Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion, 2006John 3:16 NKJV[16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
