Kalam Cosmological Argument

Whatever begins to exist has a cause.

Scripture Reference: Logic / Genesis 1:1

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."

The Evidence

1. Whatever begins to exist has a cause. 2. The universe began to exist. 3. Therefore, the universe has a cause.

Historical Context

The Big Bang theory confirms premise #2: the universe had a beginning. Therefore, the cause must be spaceless, timeless, immaterial, and powerful—matching the description of God.

Significance

Logical proof for a Creator based on the origin of the universe.
