This the world that God created and we live in to this day. In the natural world, Paul explains in Romans 1:20 “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities- His eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” With the many creations that God has produced, the world should not be presented in an evil way. God gives us chances every day to show what is right in the world and how everything should be treated. God wants us to present ourselves in righteousness rather than in sin. When we receive God and his word, we should receive it with open arms rather than resist it.
By stating that his followers should have no other gods, God is proclaiming that Jews, Christians and Muslims should not believe in other religions that are not monotheistic. Since the Jewish, Christian and Muslim religions only believe in one god, all the powers of a doctrine are invested in him. This means that God has supreme power and cannot be contested by anyone else. It is evident from the Ten Commandments
Since he cannot have created himself or caused to his existence, he cannot be omnipotent. In other words, if God is eternal, infinite, omnipotent and omniscient we can assume that something can come from nothing. Therefore I conclude that Descartes ground conflicts with his
So, God has the power to lead people to find the right way. God is love. God loves everyone and asks for nothing in return. The wish of God is obliging for his citizen. God is
C3. Therefore, an all powerful, all knowing, and all good God does not exist. In P1, it states the existence of a Tri-Omni God, which means God is all-knowing, allpowerful, and all-good. God is Omnipotent being all-powerful, God has the ability to do anything expect violate logic. Therefore no square circles and no married bachelors.
Christian Worldview Christopher G. Irwin Liberty University Christian Worldview A worldview mainly comprises of a person’s collection of many presuppositions, values and convictions from which one totally tries to clearly understand and in addition make sense out of this world and life. It is not only an explanation and world’s interpretation but also the continuous application of it to life. The Christian worldview clearly sees and understands God as the Creator and His celebrated creation (man and the world) majorly by use of God's special revelation, mainly the Holy Scriptures, and through His natural revelation as seen in creation. This is clearly interpreted by all human reason and also reconciled by and evidently with Scripture, mainly to elicit beliefs and behaviors in accordance with God's will. This will eventually bring glory to God from one's mind and life, in the present and in eternity.
a) Explain Anselm’s Ontological Argument. (25 marks) The Ontological argument is a famous argument for the existence of God initially formulated by Saint Anselm in the eleventh century. Ontology holds the direct definition of ‘the study of being’ – the study of what it means to be God. This rare argument consists entirely of a conceptual study of God, never straying from the understanding of the meanings of concepts and words by our own human cognition. The absence of the necessity for any real world evidence to support his propositions makes this argument a priori.
Nature vs. Nurture Argument Tammy Boylan PSYC Liberty University My thoughts on the nature vs. nurture argument is that God created both nature (genes) and nurture (environment) and He gives us the ability and the resources to live out our lives, many don’t recognize that God is there to help them, and that He Loves them, so they continue through life without seeking Him. It is God who places each of us in our families, gives us our eye color, hair color, skin color and even the geographical location of where we are born, how we use all that has afforded to us is left to our responsibility (environment). In all that I have read so far I’ve not come across anything in this argument that includes the Spiritual
Eternal law cannot be understood, it is everlasting, and unchangeable. Thomas says the whole world is ordered by the providence of God not with chaos. Humans do not have it in themselves to sustain this law without it passing away. Everything comes into passing and is created by a God and has a purpose. Even though humans are not eternal, the forms of human beings are eternal in the mind of God.
Always be prepared to give an answer, to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” (1 Peter 3:15) We are God’s crown, and glory of His creation. Above all created things He chose us to bear His image, male and female, so that by our life we might display Him in this world. We are each crafted by God, given uniqueness possessed by no other living beings, and each of us is given uniqueness no other “being” possesses. Inherent dignity and value constitute our identity, because we are from God.
