Science is limited to the physical. Your soul is eternal. The Bible deals with what is eternal where science cannot venture. The physical realm will pass away, and science will pass away with it. What you want to do is latch onto that which will last forever, and that is the Word of God.

Matthew 24:35
Jesus said, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away."

You need to also realize that God wants those who desire fellowship to come by faith--that is, faith in His Word. To prove that "He is", God gives us a roadmap on how to prove His existence. The existence of God as well as the Bible being the Word of God can be proved through the vehicle of prophecy. To see the evidence of this, we must first establish the fact that God is a spirit who dwells outside of our physical time domain--that is, in eternity. In the Bible, God describes Himself in Isaiah 57:15,

"For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: 'I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit.'"

If God dwells in the realm of eternity as the Bible states, then He must be able to declare future events as if they had happened in the past. We who live in the physical restraints of time and space have the disadvantage of seeing the world according to a timeline. But God sees the past and the future as one complete picture.

"Remember the former things of old, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure,'" Isaiah 46:9-10

So through the vehicle of prophecy, God throws down the gauntlet to all the other "holy books" and all the other "gods" that dare to claim the title. The God of the Bible challenged in Isaiah 41:22-23,

"Let them bring forth and show us what will happen; let them show the former things, what they were, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare to us things to come. Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods; yes, do good or do evil, that we may be dismayed and see it together."

OK, there is the challenge from the God of the Bible. No other book contains prophecy that has been fulfilled with accuracy. Some would say that others twist scripture interpretation to make prophecy "appear" to be fulfilled. A silly notion, seeing that so many of these prophecies (that were fulfilled to the letter) were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls--written many years before fulfillment. I have written one study based on one chapter in Daniel. In it can be found 16 in-depth prophecies regarding the rise of Alexander the Great and the subsequent rule of his generals afterward. I have paralleled the prophecy with the fulfillment from historic literature. You can find the study here http://tinyurl.com/lhwnb

This study only covers one chapter. There are hundreds more regarding the coming of the Messiah, the calling of Cyrus the Mead by name to allow the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem, and the re-establishment of the nation of Israel. See the list of prophecies at this link... http://www.konig.org/page3.htm

Isaiah 34:16
"Search from the book of the LORD, and read: Not one of these shall fail; Not one shall lack her mate. For My mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them."

2 Peter 1:16-21 (condensed)
For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty...and so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place...for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

Since science is nailed to the physical, all you will be able to observe is His creation. That should be enough for some people, but others choose to disregard the evidence and chalk it up to other theories. This is why God hides Himself from the learned and reveals Himself to those who seek Him by faith. So the answer to your question is "Yes" if science will choose to believe the evidence before it, and "No" if science ignores it. Personally, I thought the design of DNA should have been enough for the scientist--but alas, they explain that away as well.

Before anything was created, He wasn't even really "GOD", because a 'god' is an object of worship.
He was just 'I AM'.
He is the source and substance of all things.
He is the author of creation.
So nothing could have created Him...because before anything existed, He existed.
He is existance.
To say that someone or something created Him, would be the same as saying that a previous universe ctreated our's.
It would make no sense.
There has to be a starting point.
Something atheists refuse to admit.
Besides, you cannot have a false, without there first being a true.
In other words, you cannot make a copy without the original first existing.
This proves the existance of God.

Scientific? Maybe. They did prove that the basic compound that makes up humans is sound, which does coincide with the Bible. They also have proven that many of the events spoken of in the Bible did happen. Will they ever prove God to the point where everyone can see It? No.

Whatever science can't prove is what is considered as God's work. Not the other way around. Eg. Converting a plate of food to blood and energy in a lab is impossible. That is argued as God's handy work which can't be replicated by mortals.

Yes- when people stops connecting science and god together, or any kind religion. God stays in the context of religion, not biology or physiology.

If god really exists, he'll come around and save the world and stop bad people and stop war and stop racism. But apparently he hasn't done anything, so we assume he is asleep or don't care about us, or he SIMPLY DON"T exist.

"sigh" and again I say: that is the classic atheistic reaction. yet it feels extra like an attempt to maintain away from surely having to delve into the count number. isn't technological understanding predicated upon the cyclical technique of hypothesis? it is to say an assumption is made, a attempt is finished, the outcomes are recorded and the concept both evolves or is dispelled. it style of feels atheism only receives as far because the hypothesis as to the idea of God's existence yet delivers no qualitative documents to both coach or disprove His existence. with the exception of, isn't between the tenants of genuine technological understanding to stumble on ALL opportunities? Why is it that technological understanding stubbornly refuses to stumble on the perception of God? i comprehend that the classic argument is that Darwinism, evolution, quantum physic, astrophysics or perhaps extra at present string idea, all furnish countless aspects of the anti-God argument. yet none of those theories clarify how the complicated amalgamation of count number/anti-count number/darkish count number and void it is the universe got here into being through random happenstance. The threat of which defies mathematical computation. technological understanding makes a speciality of the trunk, branches and leaves of the tree yet because it ought to neither see the roots nor attempt for them, it refutes that the roots even exist. If the muse of technological understanding is to discover actuality, then why no longer attempt to discover the reality about God. finally, technological understanding, by using its very nature, can no longer have any perception; only info. therefore what i'm asking is for the info that you've that furnish irrefutable info of God’s non-existence no longer your beliefs.

No, but that doesn't mean he doesn't exist.

Look at schneb's answer. That's the kind of person that worries about proving something. He basically writes a whole Bible of his own and none of it is original - it's copied from a book. I bet he gets all choked up when he looks in the mirror and thinks, "what a genius I am."

Now that all depends on your personal image of what god is!
Science has already proved my image of God.
Maybe that is why my people are so at peace!
Blessed Be....

There's absolutely no way to know.

Maybe it will, maybe it won't.

However, if I had to put my money on one or the other, I'd go with "no". At least, it won't prove that there is a god that resembles the judeo-christian god, in that omniscience and omnipotence seem to be logically infeasible.

No, there is no agreed upon definition for "God" or what would constitute proof for his existence.

Science is about testing observations of the world around us to help people or for the sake of pure curiosity. It does not concern itself with validating people's belief systems.
