CREATION TESTIFIES TO THE CREATOR

If a person can exist, why can’t God exist? If air and water, trees and stones, the moon and the stars exist, why is the existence of the One who gave them existence doubted? The fact is that the presence of the creation is proof of the Creator. Man’s existence is evidence of a God who is present, hears and sees, thinks, and causes things to happen.

There is no doubt that our physical eyes cannot see God. But there is also no doubt that nothing can be seen with the physical eyes regarding its final subatomic components. Then why is the condition of seeing necessary for believing in the existence of anything?

The stars shine in the sky. The ordinary person thinks he is seeing the stars, but from a strictly scientific point of view, this is not true. When we see the stars, we are not seeing them directly. Instead, we see their effects in the form of 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.
