Evidence For God Quotes

“...who in the Bible besides Jesus knew--knew--that we're carrying the Kingdom of Heaven around with us, inside, where we're all too goddamn stupid and sentimental and unimaginative to look? You have to be a son of God to know that kind of stuff...When you don't see Jesus for exactly who he was, you miss the whole point of the Jesus Prayer. When you don't understand Jesus, you can't understand his prayer--you don't get the prayer at all, you just get some kind of organized cant.”
― J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey

“This belief, that science eradicates (the need for) God, is a myth many people believe today. The truth is that science, the study of the world and collection of our findings, has not and cannot disprove God. There is no scientific journal that has disproven God’s existence. This is because God cannot be put in a test tube and either verified or falsified. God is a spiritual being and is outside the reach of empirical scientific research. Christians cannot prove God the existence of God with absolute certainty, nor can atheists disprove his existence with any certainty. That does not mean that we cannot look at the evidence as to whether or not God exists.”

“The truth is that science has not disproved the existence of God. Many eminent scientists find that their work and their faith are complementary. Though science cannot give us the meaning of life, morality, love, or any of the other things that mean most to us, we can all learn a great deal about God’s world through scientific discovery.

The real tension lies in the way discoveries are reported. How the data are shared reveals something about the presupposition of the one writing the report - whether that person has a particular bias or whether the report is simply a neutral observation of data. Due to differences in worldview, it is understandable that atheistic and theistic scientists will interpret data differently. They will draw from other fields such as psychology, philosophy, or theology. We must all be aware of the biases we bring into all of our work, science included. The church may have a reputation for suppressing scientific discovery but I am confident that this is being corrected today with the high level scholarly work being done by eminent Christians in all fields of science.”

“The chances that all the billions of things required for life on Earth would line up, just by chance, are just not possible. Think of all the things you would need, a planet at just the right distance from the sun, in a stable orbit, with a habitable atmosphere and water, and a hospitable climate. The planet would need to have the resources so that if by chance humans could magically develop, that they could build the advanced society that we have. The odds of that happening are so astronomically impossible that you would have better luck opening the box on a brand new 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle and dumping the box off a roof and having all the pieces land in the form of a completed puzzle. Then look at the fact that there were over 300 prophecies about the Christ that were made hundreds of years before he was born that all came true. The chances that they all would come true in one person are ridiculously minuscule. As a scientist, I look at those two things and must conclude that there had to be a creator and Jesus must be the Christ.”

“May our actions and our love be evidence of who You are.”
