Yes Ms Delta Burke

Answer 3

no the cosmos is alive though very much.

Answer 4

No the Laws of physics are part of the creations of the Supreme being , no accident could [pput all of it together that way
The name Jehovah applies to the SupremeBeing. He is the most High above all,His name Jehovah signifies his purpose toward his creatures, He is the Almighty God which means that he is the creator of all things in heaven and in earth and that his power is Almighty and nothing can successfully resist him. God created man and created the earth as a place for a man to live.All men who will ever gain life everlasting must know and obey Jehovah God. Jehovah provides 2 ways primary ways for man to gain knowledge of Him 1.By man observing the things created, which of themselves tell silently tell of the supreme power, and 2nd by his revieled word which is the Bible, otherwise caled the Scriptures, JehovahGod long ago caused faithful men to write the Bible at his dictation, and this divine record is made up for the purpose of giving man needed information. The Bible is the truth, and for centuries has successfully resisted all efforts to discredit it. All the Human race are the ofspring of one man whose name was Adam and who was created by Jehovah a perfect man. That man disobeyed God and was sentenced to death after which all these children were born and for that reason all the human race by inheritance are sinners. The Scriptures truly, declare that Jehovah God is love which means that he is unselfish and that he does good unto all creatures without any gain to himself, every act of Jehovah is prompted by love or unselfishness and he is wholy devoted to righteousness, it is his will hat his creatures be wholy devoted to righteousness. He has provided the means for all men to gain the knowledge of the truth in order that they may learn the way of righteousness and live forever in happiness. We have now come to the time, when men are given greater opportunity than ever before to learn the way of righteousness and to life, Jehovah God is the giver of life therefore, it is properly said of him that he is the fountain of life, his beloved son is Jesus whose position in the universe is next to that of Jehovah, the purpose of Jehovah is to give life to obedient men by and through thre administration of Christ Jesus, when such men are fully obedient to him, for this reason Jesus said of Jehovah and for the benefit of men, this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent,(John3:16 no man can get everlasting life without knowing Jehovah and obeying him, a meek person is a teachable one, that is to say a person who is willing to be taught. Jehovah's promised to man, that he will teach the meek in the way that he should go, and if a man seeks knowledge earnestly desiring the thing God will reward his effort. Jehovah has now brought to pass conditions in the world that make it possible for man to understand his Name and his purpose and for this reason he has supplied the means all understand. Jehovah commands that all men should love him, with a pure heart and that they be obedient to his commandments to prove their love for him, such is not a selfish command but is entirely unselfish and to the special benefit of man, There are many creatures that are called god because god means mighty one, but there's just one Jehovah the Almighty God. He is the eternal one and there's none other that can give life everlasting to man. It would be inconsistent for God to give life to anyone who is out of harmony with him,and therefore he tells man thaty if he desires to have everlasting life he must be obedient, Jehovah also commands that man shall make no image and worship that, that requirement is for man's best interest, if a man devotes himself to an image or a thing that tends to turn his mind and his affections away from God and to lead him into destruction. All Law and comandments of Jehovah are for man's good, the more fuller we understand them and obey them the more we love Jehovah. That which is of greatest importance to man is to gain the knowledge of Jehovah as set fort in the Bible. The Law of God is perfect converting the soul, testemony that the love is pure making wise of simple. are the ofspring of that first man, why is there so much sickness distress and sorrow and death amongst the human race? Is Jehovah responsible for all of this sorrow and suffering amongst men including death?Jehovah is not responsible for it at all. A talk given by .F. Rutherford in the 1930's

Answer 5

DOES GOD EXIST?

“Science without religion is lame; religion without science is blind.”

Who said this? Albert Einstein

Religion can use science to help prove that God does exist.

In 1916 Einstein didn’t like where his calculations were leading him. If his theory of General Relativity was true, it meant that the universe was not eternal but had a beginning. Einstein had always believed that the universe was static and eternal. That it was just here.

Einstein latter called his discovery “irritating.” He wanted the universe to be self-existent
--not reliant on any outside cause—but the universe appeared to be one giant effect.

In 1919, British cosmologist Arthur Eddington conducted an experiment during a soar eclipse which confirmed that General Relativity was indeed true—the universe wasn’t static but had a beginning. Like Einstein, Eddington wasn’t happy with the implications. He later wrote, “Philosophically the notion of a beginning of the present order of nature is repugnant to me…..I should like to find a genuine loophole.”

These were some of the most intelligent men alive at the time, great scientist. They were trying to prove that the universe was static and did not have a beginning.

In 1922 Dutch astronomer William de Sitter had found that General Relativity required the universe to be expanding.

In 1927, the expanding of the universe was actually observed by astronomer Edwin Hubble.

Hubble discovered a “red shift” in the light from every observable galaxy, which meant that those galaxies were moving away from us. In other words General Relativity was again confirmed—the universe is expanding from a single point in the distant past.

This does not mean that we are at the center. (Use balloon example)

In 1929 Einstein went to Mount Wilson to look through Hubble’s telescope for himself.

What he saw was irrefutable. The observational evidence showed that the universe was indeed expanding as General Relativity had predicted. In Einstein’s desire to show the universe was static, he later said that it was “the greatest blunder of my life,” and said that he wanted “to know how God created the world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thought, the rest are details.”

And as of today the Theory of General Relativity stands as one of the strongest lines of evidence for a theistic God. Indeed, General Relativity supports what is one of the oldest formal arguments for the existence of a theistic God—the Cosmological Argument.

THE COSMOLOGICAL ARGUMENT

The Cosmological Argument is the argument for the beginning of the universe. If the universe had a beginning, then the universe had a cause.

In logical form, the argument goes like this:
1.Everything that had a beginning had a cause.
2.The universe had a beginning.
3.Therefore the universe had a cause.

For an argument to be true it has to be logically valid, and its premises must be true. This is a valid argument, but are the premises true?

Premise 1---Everything that had a beginning had a cause—is the Law of Causality, which is the fundamental principle of science. Without the Law of Causality, science is impossible. Because science is the search for causes. That’s what scientist do—they try to discover what caused what.

Since the Law of Causality is well established and undeniable, premise 1 is true.

Premise 2—The universe had a beginning. If it didn’t , then no cause was needed. If it did, then the universe must have had a cause.

Until the time of Einstein, atheist could comfort themselves with the belief that the universe is eternal, and thus did not need a cause.

But since then, five lines of scientific evidence have been discovered that prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the universe did indeed have a beginning. And that beginning was what scientists now call “The Big Bang”

Every so often major magazines will run a cover story like “When did the universe begin?” or “When will it end?”.

The fact that the universe had a beginning and will ultimately die is not even up for debate in the reports.

Why?

Because modern scientists know that a beginning and an ending are demanded by one of the most validated laws in all of nature—the Second Law of Thermodynamics.


THE SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

Thermodynamics is the study of matter and energy, and the Second Law states, among other things, that the universe is running out of usable energy. With each passing moment, the amount of usable energy in the universe grows smaller, leading scientists to the obvious conclusion that one day all the energy will be gone and the universe will die. Like a running car, the universe will ultimately run out of gas.

So how does this prove that the universe had a beginning?

Well, lets look at it this way: the First Law of Thermodynamics states that the total amount of energy in the universe is constant. In other words, the universe has only a finite amount of energy. If your car has 1 full tank of gas (first law), and if your car is running and consuming gas (second law), would your car be running right now if you had started it up an infinitely long time ago? No, it would be out of gas by now. In the same way, the universe would be out of energy by now if it had been running from all eternity.

But here we are and the lights are still on.

The Second Law is also know as the Law of Entropy, which is a fancy way of saying that nature tends to bring things to disorder. That is, with time, things naturally fall apart. Your car, your house, you fall apart.

But if the universe is becoming less ordered, then where did the original order come from?

Astronomer Robert Jastrow likens the universe to a wound-up clock. If a wound-up clock is running down, then someone must have wound it up.

This aspect of the Second Law tells us that the universe had a beginning. Since we still have some order left—just like we have some usable energy left—the universe cannot be eternal, because if it were, we would have reached complete disorder (entropy) by now.














THE UNIVERSE IS EXPANDING

Good scientific theories are those that are able to predict phenomena that have not yet been observed. Einstein’s General Relativity predicted the expanding universe. But it wasn’t until Edwin Hubble looked through his telescope more that 10 years later that scientists finally confirmed that the universe is expanding and that it is expanding from a single point. This expanding universe is the second line of scientific evidence that the universe had a beginning.

How does the expanding universe prove a beginning?

If we could watch a video recording of the expanding universe in reverse, we would see all matter in the universe collapse back to a single point, not even the size of a pin head, but mathematically and logically to a point that is actually nothing (i.e., no space, no time, and no matter).

In other words, once there was nothing, and then, BANG, there was something—the entire universe exploded into being! This, of course, is what is commonly called the “Big Bang.”

Is the universe expanding into empty space?

No, the universe is expanding into space that is also expanding.

There was no space before the Big Bang.

In fact, chronologically, there was no “before” the Big Bang because there are no “Befores” without time, and there was no time until the Big Bang. Time, Space, and Matter came into existence at the Big Bang.

Atheists argue that as we go back in time before the Big Bang, to when there was no time, and to where there was no space, At this time before time, they imagine a swirling dust of mathematical points which recombine again and again and again and finally come by trial and error to form our space time universe.

This position is not even scientific theory but is actually self-contradictory pop-metaphysics.

It is pop-metaphysics because it’s a made-up explanation—there’s absolutely no scientific evidence supporting it.

It also self-contradictory because it assumes time and space before there was time and space.

This is the point that an Atheist has trouble explaining the beginning. They want to put something where nothing existed.

RADIATION FROM THE BIG BANG

The 3rd line of scientific evidence that the universe had a beginning was discovered by accident in 1965. That’s when Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson detected strange radiation on their antenna at Bell Labs in Holmdel, New Jersey. No matter where they turned their antenna, this mysterious radiation remained. They initially thought it might be the result of bird droppings from the nesting Jersey Shore Pigeons, so they had the pigeons and the droppings removed. But when they got back inside, they found that the radiation was still there, and it was coming from all directions.

What they had detected turned out to be one of the most incredible discoveries of the last century—one that would win them Nobel Prizes.

They had discovered the afterglow from the Big Bang fireball explosion.

Technically known as the cosmic background radiation.

Back in 1948 3 scientists had predicted that this radiation would be out there if the Big Bang did really occur.


GREAT GALAXY SEEDS

Scientists also predicted that if the Big Bang had occurred you would see slight variations (or ripples) in the temperature of the cosmic background radiation the Penzias and Wilson had discovered.

These temperature ripples enabled matter to congregate by gravitational attraction into galaxies.

In 1989 the search for these ripples was intensified when NASA launched a satellite, carrying extremely sensitive instruments able to see whether or not these ripples actually existed in the background radiation and how precise they were.

In 1992, astronomer George Smoot, announced the findings of the satellite. He said, “If you’re religious, it’s like looking at God.”

NASA not only found the ripples, but scientists were amazed at their precision. The ripples show that the explosion and expansion of the universe was precisely tweaked to cause just enough matter to congregate to allow galaxy formation, but not enough to cause the universe to collapse back on itself.

Any slight variation and none of us would be here to talk about it.

But these temperature ripples are not just dots on a scientists graph somewhere, or just some theory. The NASA satellite actually took infrared pictures of the ripples.

Also something to keep in mind, the pictures that the satellite took are of the past.




GOD AND THE ASTRONOMERS

So the universe had a beginning. What does that mean for the question of God’s existence?

Scientist Robert Jastrow (atheist, then agnostic) observed in an interview, “Astronomers now find they have painted themselves into a corner because they have proven, by their own methods, that the world began abruptly in an act to which you can trace the seeds of every star, every planet, every living thing in this cosmos and on the earth. And they have found that all this happened as a product of forces they cannot hope to discover…that there are what I or anyone would call supernatural forces at work is now, I think, a scientifically proven fact.”

Arthur Eddington (who found his calculations “repugnant”, also an atheist, then agnostic) admitted, “The beginning seems to present insuperable difficulties unless we agree to look on it as frankly supernatural.”

Now why would Jastrow and Eddington admit that there are “supernatural” forces at work? Why couldn’t natural forces have produced the universe?

Because these scientists know as well as anyone that natural forces—indeed all of nature—were created at the Big Bang. In other words, the Big Bang was the beginning point for the entire physical universe. Time, space, and matter came into existence at that point. There was no natural world or natural law prior to the Big Bang. Since a cause cannot come after its effect, natural forces cannot account for the Big Bang. Therefore, there must be something outside of nature to do the job. That’s exactly what the word supernatural means.
