"For he who is least among you all--he is the greatest." (Luke 9:48)
Scientists have long tried to explain away the existence of God by forming theories on the creation of life, the creation of this planet, and the creation of this universe. Many of these theories are widely accepted among the scientific world. However, I have one question. Do these theories truly explain away the possibility and need of a God?
Scientists have tried to explain how this world and universe came together. I could ask scientist, what caused the earth into existence? They would reply with a widely accepted theory. However, no matter how far they go back in explaining the cause of existence of different things. A question remains, what caused those things into existence? This discussion could go one for an infinite amount of time. There could be an infinite amount of causes, or could there?
There can not be an infinite amount of causes. Why? Because this would take an infinite amount of time. An infinite amount of time is impossible to transverse. So we can conclude that because it is impossible to transverse an infinite amount of time, it was a finite amount of time and causes that created the universe.
However, this creates a dilemma. How can you have something caused into existence by something that has never been caused? How can you have an uncaused causer? The answer is simple. God is the uncaused causer. He was never created, yet created all things. God must exist for everything in this universe and beyond this universe to exist.
