God and the Universe

THE UNIVERSE TESTIFIES TO GOD’S EXISTENCE light, which, separating from the stars, reach our eyes after a long time, sometimes even after many years. The same is true for all other things. Everything in this world that man ‘sees’ he sees only indirectly. Man does not see anything directly, nor can he ever do so with his present limitations. So, when the existence of all other things is accepted based on indirect evidence, why should the existence of God also not be accepted based on indirect evidence? The fact is that God is as clearly proven as anything in the universe. Everything in this universe is proved through indirect evidence. In this world, everything is recognized by its effects. The same is true for God’s existence. God certainly is not visible to our eyes. But He is certainly observable through His signs—His creation in the form of the universe around us. And undoubtedly, for intellectual evidence for God, this is enough. EVIDENCE OF GOD IN THE UNIVERSE For the existence of life on Earth, various complex conditions are necessary. These conditions are such that they cannot come about by mere chance. They cannot be together by fluke. This being the case, one must necessarily accept that there is some conscious guidance that is present in the universe that is the cause behind these conditions and that has arranged for them to come about in just the manner needed for life to be able to exist on Earth.
