Apologetic Argument - Causation

 There are a Lot of Apologetic Arguments that are used to support Christianity and the major tenants of the existence of God. But if we look at them one by one there are multiple arguments that should be considered as BASIC elements of any Apologist's knowledge base. 

Always remember 1 Peter 3:15 - "but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:"

And as most Apologists know Paul, was possibly one of the most adept Apologist who ever existed if not the most Christian of all Christians. Remember he puts forth an argument for the truth of Jesus Christ from the very onset of his writings.

Acts 1:1 - "The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,"

Causation: is the idea that everything has a Cause. 

In today's world most people tend to relate everything that is provable to Science, what they tend to forget is that God allowed Science to come into the world to show the natural laws that he created to further the knowledge and proof of his existence. 

Through my own exploration and understanding, I've come to recognize that our existence is intricately woven into a realm of cause and effect. Moreover, my personal journey into the world of science has illuminated the fact that our universe is not timeless; instead, it is in a perpetual state of expansion. This expansion, by its very nature, implies a definite beginning, challenging any notion that the universe has endured infinitely. Therefore, asserting the eternal existence of the universe appears to me both logically inconsistent and at odds with the scientific evidence I've encountered.

This supports the logical Scientific attitude of modern times that we live in a world that relies upon the laws of Cause and Effect. Everything that happens has a Cause with the resulting Effect. 

To support the existence of God then Causation gives us the notion that Something Caused the Universe to come into being. The Universe had a Start Point! The Universe is the Effect, and therefore something was the Cause. The real force that would cause the Universe would also have to be timeless, always existed, has no real stake in the physical elements, and would have to exist outside of the created universe. This would lead us to a supernatural conclusion of a cause which would effect the resulting universe. 

Hebrews 11:3 - "Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

An unseen creator. 

Romans 4:17 - "(as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were."

God the creator.

Genesis 1:1 - "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. "
