The Logic and Reason of God and Creation

by Steven Lem

The atheist often claim that the very idea of a supernatural God is irrational. To refute this claim we need to accurately use logic and reason. But what is logic? Also, what is formal logic compared to our more informal or casual logic? It is also very important to recognize logical fallacies when they are asserted. Further what is reason in its various types.

We will soon see that we can use logic, reason and morality to prove the existence of God. Then the claims of the Bible are rational including creation.

Once the logical necessity of God is established, we can more productively investigate the truth of Creationism – The belief that God created the Heavens and the Earth. This in turn lends support to our Christian belief that Jesus is God, a member of the Trinity, and played a major role in Creation. We will see how this is made clear in both the old and new testaments.

Big Bangs of Creation: Mind

by Robert Brayton

 

Explaining the origin of things without action by a powerful and wise Creator has always been a major problem for the materialist. For example, an abundance of information is embodied in the genes and bodily structure of living organisms. That information must be explained. However, the only observed source of information is intelligent minds. Information has never been observed to arise from random purposeless processes.

Yet here we are doing deliberate, planned, purposeful, and often intelligent things of our own free will. These are essential characteristics of a mind. But what is a mind, where does it come from, what does it do and how does it work? Is our mind a part of the image of God with which we are endowed as Genesis asserts?
