God is First Cause
The Law of Cause and Effect:
The Law of Cause and Effect is universally accepted and followed in every field of science. Science cannot operate without this law. It states that: for everything which has a beginning has a cause. And that everything that now exists, only exists because it had at some point a cause that produced it. It is also a scientific truth that the effect can never be greater than the cause.
It is an accepted fact of science that our universe had a beginning. It can be proven by various disciplines of science including the First and Second Laws of thermodynamics, Einstein’s General Relativity, and many others. Creationist and evolutionist both agree that our universe--the heavens and the earth--had a beginning.
Therefore, according to the foundational law of science, the Law of Cause and Effect, the universe (including time itself) can be shown to have had a beginning and therefore requires a cause. One must note that:
The First Cause of limitless Space must be infinite God is infinite
The First Cause of endless Time must be eternal God is eternal
The First Cause of boundless Energy must be omnipotent God is omnipotent
The First Cause of universal Interrelationships must be omnipresent God is omnipresent
The First Cause of infinite Complexity must be omniscient God is omniscient
The First Cause of Moral Values must be just God is just
The First Cause of Spiritual Values must be spiritual God is holy
The First Cause of Human Responsibility must be volitional God is the Way
The First Cause of Integrity must be truthful God is truth
The First Cause of Love must be loving God is love
The First Cause of Life must be living God is life
According to evolution, In the beginning was nothing. And from Nothing, came “something”. And that “something” evolved into matter. And so, the first cause of all that now exist is Matter. Does the above chart describe matter? Can random motion of primeval particles produce intelligent thought or inert molecules generate spiritual worship? To say that Matter and its innate properties constitute the ultimate explanation of the universe and its inhabitants is to totally disregard the Law of Cause and Effect. The effect of something must have a cause. Evolution says that something comes from nothing and that the universe created itself. This is a scientific absurdity. Nothing can create itself, because it would need to exist before it came into existence. The evolutionists ignore this FACT, and have never been able to prove through science that something can come from nothing.
On the other hand, an omnipotent Creator is an adequate First Cause for all observable effects in the universe. In the beginning God, created the heavens and the earth, is scientifically correct and in harmony with the Law of First Cause. The law of First Cause supports creationism while at the same time disputes evolution.
The atheist likes to say that the belief in a Creator is superstition. However, do they not put their belief in magic? To say that something came from nothing is no less than magic.
