Does God exist?
Does God exist?
This is a question humanity has been trying to answer since the beginning of time, with only two answers yes or no
Those who answer yes are divided into a wide variety of belief systems and religions they are all theists
People like Greeks, Romans, Vikings, believed in a multitude of divine gods each in charge of different aspects of the world and afterlife
People like Muslims, Christians, Mormons, believe in one God who created the world and rules over it
People like agnostics, “spiritual” people, believe there is a higher power, but that we can’t know anything for sure about it
Those who answer no are atheists, they believe there is no spiritual realm, there is no higher power
All these worldviews have claims and evidences for why they believe what they believe
The challenge for us is to evaluate which one is true and worth believing in. My argument is that the Christian worldview is the one true way to live.
As we explore these questions, our primary source will be the Bible, but we will occasionally look at other religions and worldviews to compare
