Evidence for God from Science

So if they (observation and revelation) complement themselves, why argue with atheists? If they cannot understand because they can't perceive revelation, and if all they go by is observation, while we (Christians) complement the observation with revelation, and we will never get through to them unti...

Why would that be a deal breaker, ST? We already know of one set of intelligent creatures who have fallen (demons), and yet the Cross seems to have had no effect on them. Can you lay out your reasoning in a simple argument, because I'm missing a premise somewhere. The best I can see that you have i...

Deuteronomy was written approx 1406 BC as was Exodus and Numbers. In these is the mention of Hell in Numbers 16:30-32 and Deut 32:22. As for the rest, the bible is revelationary in the sense that it revels truth in stages and not all at once. In fact, let me ask you this: How do you learn algebra? ...

Science Vs. Revelation

Should revelation rule over observation, or should observation rule over revelation in "rational thinking" as a means to learn about God?

So basically what I'm understanding from all your responses is that man has only seen manifestations of God (i.e, in human flesh, or in the midst of a burning bush); but he has never seen God (the Father or the Son) in His true spirit image, right?

Sure, if there were any reason to believe that beings are supposed to be bigger than they are. I don't know of any reason that is the case, though. In that case, the size of humans now would be considered a defect, which in theory could be the case. But what evidence does anyone have to suggest tha...

Besides monotheism, can you share some knowledge or insight as to the other assertions made by the author, such as.. " Biblical books that reflect the period prior to 586 B.C. have no Satan figure. However, the literature written after the exile speaks of a Satan figure four times," and &...

Could some of that same analogy be applied to stature; giant sized to the current one?

Wolfie: "Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few." Jesus is the gate! "Jesus said to him, “I am the w...

Probably the most overrated, overused, and tiring arguements that the new atheists use is the argument of the "Flying Spaghetti Monster." First of all, the FSM is a concept that was invented in 2005. Ever since then, the FSM has become one of the most annoying fallacy used by the new athe...

Even though I wholeheartedly believe that Christ is the Way and the Life, and His atonement paid the price for our redemption, I do however believe wholeheartedly that the atonement is extended to the whole of humanity, past, present and future, in some way rather than just simply becoming a Christ...

..the central teaching of Zoroaster seems clear. There is only one true God in all the world and his name is Ahura Mazda. It is he who created the world. This I ask Thee, tell it to me truly, Lord! Who set firmly earth below and kept the sky sure from falling? Who the streams and trees did make? Who...

Thanks Paul, I'll put it on my Amazon long list of books to buy.

Hugh Ross's Navigating Genesis talks about this with regards to the change of our diet and climate change - which shortened our lives. The way I see it is there is three options. 1) These ages are real. Not beyond the realm of impossibility if God is God. 2) A scientific explanation for the changes...
