Does God Exist?

Deep Dive into Apologetics and Evangelism by Dr. Michael Vlach & Prof. Jesse Johnson - Does God Exist?In the debate, Dr. Gordon Stein defines a miracle primarily as an event that violates the known laws of physics and chemistry, indicating a supernatural occurrence. For Stein, this violation would serve as adequate evidence for God's existence. He provides vivid examples, such as a podium spontaneously rising five feet into the air, remaining suspended, and then dropping, provided there are no hidden wires or mechanisms. This, to him, would be clear "evidence of a supernatural" and a "supernatural violation of the laws" that could be termed a miracle. He would also accept the appearance of a supernatural being performing "miracles that could not be staged magic" as sufficient proof, emphasizing that any such evidence must be "logically non-contradictory."Dr. Greg Bahnsen, while acknowledging that history is full of events "apparently miracles to people," offers a different perspective. From an atheistic or naturalistic viewpoint, he suggests that these events appear miraculous only "because they were ignorant of all the causal factors." More fundamentally, Bahnsen argues that even direct witness to miracles does not guarantee belief. He asserts that "people are not made theist by miracles"; instead, they "must change their worldview, their hearts must be changed, they need to be converted." He contends that atheists inherently "believe things on faith" by presuming that future naturalistic explanations will always arise for seemingly miraculous phenomena, even if they haven't proven them yet by their senses.Reformed Theologian GPT: https://chat.openai.com/g/g-XXwzX1gnv-reformed-theologianhttps://buymeacoffee.com/edi2730
