Is there a god?

The search for something more

*Blaise Pascal, the great 17^th century mathematician described this as the “God-shaped vacuum” in every person.

The Law of Cause and Effect

*No effect can be produced without a cause

Order and Design

*the universe and the earth give evidence that there must be a designer. Just as a painting reflects the artist, creation reflects the creator.

Meaning and Purpose

*Apart from order outside ourselves, we all long for order within. People have asked through the agaes, “Why am I here?”

The Moral Argument

*Somehow we know inside of us what we ought to do. God has put a moral law within all of us that governs the universe.

Love and Emotion

*If God doesn’t exist then love is reduced to an evolved emotion that comes only from matter and energy. The Bible teaches that Jesus revealed that reality is bigger than matter and energy. Reality includes a supernatural God who is love and created us with an innate ability to love and have emotion.

Jesus Christ

*God has taken initiative throughout history to communicate with man. Jesus was God in the flesh!!

Changed Lives

*YOU are the best for the existence of God because you exist!
