Let God Help
1. What is the evidence that God exists?
​A. Cosmological Evidence
Everything that begins to exist has a cause. Since we understand that the universe had a beginning—often considered to be around 13.8 billion years ago with the Big Bang—this implies there must be a cause or reason for that existence. This cause is argued to be God, an uncaused, eternal being who initiated the universe. Currently there is no other explanation.
​
B. Moral Evidence
The universal presence of objective moral values is evidence of God’s existence. If moral truths exist that apply to all people regardless of culture or society—such as the belief that it is wrong to murder or steal—then there must be a moral lawgiver. This moral law comes from God, as it transcends human opinion and is rooted in His character.
​
C. Design and Order in Creation
The complexity and order of the universe point to intelligent design. The fine-tuning of physical constants, such as the precise strength of gravitational force and the balance of chemical properties, suggests that the universe is uniquely arranged for life. The intricacies of life and DNA provide strong evidence of a Creator who intentionally crafted the world for life to thrive.

D. Mathematical Evidence
Calculating the exact probability of a single functioning cell emerging purely by chance involves factors such as:
-
The number of specific proteins required for a cell to function (thousands for even the simplest cells).
-
The likelihood of amino acids coming together in the correct sequences to form proteins.
-
The random assembly of cellular structures, membranes, and genetic materials.
Estimates for the probability of forming even the simplest living cell by chance range from 1 in 10^40 to 1 in 10^100. These are extremely small numbers. For example 1/10^40 times the weight of earth is .597 millionths of a gram.

E. The Life, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ
Jesus' life, his teachings, his crucifixion, and particularly his resurrection are significant indicators of God's intervention in human history. The resurrection is not only a miraculous event but also as confirmation of Jesus' divine nature and His claims of being the Son of God. Eyewitness accounts documented in the New Testament as well as non-Biblical historical documents support His claim.

F. Personal Experience
Many share personal testimonies of experiencing God in their lives. This can include answered prayers, spiritual peace during difficult times, and transformative life changes.
