Reason #3: The Teleological Argument for the Existence of God

Today I’d like to highlight evidence for the existence of God that we all experience every day: the argument by design.  

We live and work in buildings that were designed (and built) for a purpose, and we use machines every day as well that were designed (and built) for a purpose.  

Houses, computers and cars didn’t just randomly form out of naturally occurring materials. We immediately know that architects and factories are responsible for designing and building these things we use every day. Design points to a designer. 

Such is the case with nature. The more we learn about the world in which we live, the more amazed we should be about how intricately it is made.

The Teleological Argument for the existence of God argues that the intricacies of our world point to the existence of a God who created it. 

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. -Psalm 19:1

Below is a short, 6-minute YouTube video from William Lane Craig’s ministry on The Fine Tuning Argument (which is a modern variant of the teleological argument) if you want to take a look.

Because Jesus satisfies the mind and the heart.
