14: The Bible Assumes God's Existence
03/23/20 • 1 min
Does God exist? When you read the Bible, you don’t find an argument for the proof of God’s existence. There’s no passage that lays out the case or responds to the premise, "Here’s how you know there is a God." Philosophers and theologians have laid out arguments for the existence of God, and there are many books that talk about that. When you come to the Bible, the Bible simply assumes that God exists. In fact, the Bible begins with the assumption that there is a God. It says “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” The Bible then goes on to introduce us to that God. So, the Bible is very matter-of-fact regarding the existence of God.
