God and the Universe

The book clearly shows that far from negating the existence of God, the Creator and Master of the universe, modern scientific findings provide convincing evidence of God’s existence. Authentic science and authentic versions of divine guidance thus conform rather than confront each other. Put differently, God’s Word (as expressed in Divine Revelation) and God’s Work (as expressed in the universe) are in perfect harmony. The discovery that the universe had a definite beginning clearly points to a pre-existent Cause that brought it into being—and, this book shows, this Cause cannot be anything but the One God, who is eternal. Likewise, the fine-tuning, intricate design, and perfect balance of the universe, among other features of the universe that scientific discoveries have highlighted, cannot be satisfactorily accounted for other than by attributing them to the One Creator, God Almighty. Perhaps, under the influence of fallacious ideologies, some people who have a shallow understanding of science and religion think that modern science has convincingly disproved the existence of God. This book effectively shows this belief to be a complete fallacy. Far from being an enemy of the authentic version of Divine Religion, science can be said to be a close ally of it. In light of the findings and arguments highlighted in this book, one can very well say that one cannot be authentically scientific without being authentically religious, and vice versa. Reflecting on the marvels of creation uncovered by modern science, the present book can be an essential means for spiritual advancement. It can enable us to understand the PUBLISHER’S NOTE
