<h1>Scientific Proof of God</h1>

<article>
  <div class="scripture">“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.”<span class="ref"> – Genesis 1:1</span></div>
  <h2>The Miracle Hidden in Physics</h2>
  <p class="lead dropcap">When most people hear the word miracle, they think of something dramatic — the parting of the Red Sea, the healing of the blind, or the resurrection of Christ. But there is a miracle so vast, so incomprehensible, that it underlies everything else: the existence of the universe itself.</p>
  <p>Modern science tells us that the universe began in an event we call the Big Bang — the sudden appearance of space, time, energy, and matter from nothing. But few stop to ask the deeper question: why did it begin in such an ordered, life-permitting way? According to physics, the universe started with an astonishingly low level of entropy — an incredible degree of order and structure. And that single fact changes everything.</p>
  <h2>What Is Entropy?</h2>
  <p>Entropy is a measure of disorder — the amount of randomness in a system. The Second Law of Thermodynamics tells us that, left alone, systems naturally move toward higher entropy — from order to chaos, from structure to decay. Ice melts, stars burn out, and energy spreads until nothing organized remains.</p>
  <p>Yet our universe began not in chaos, but in the most improbable order imaginable. It started in a condition so precisely tuned that physicist Roger Penrose calculated the odds of such a beginning by chance as:</p>
  <blockquote>1 in 10^(10^123)</blockquote>
  <p>That number is so large it defies comprehension — more improbable than picking a single marked atom out of the entire universe billions of times in a row. In simple terms, the universe’s beginning was not just unlikely; it was impossible without intentional design.</p>
  <h2>An Ordered Beginning in a Lawless Moment</h2>
  <p>Before the Big Bang, there were no physical laws to govern anything. Space, time, and matter did not exist. So how did the universe begin with such perfect order when no natural process could yet operate?</p>
  <p>The only coherent explanation is a cause beyond nature itself — a Mind, a Creator, a Designer who set the initial conditions so that life could one day arise.</p>
  <p>This is not wishful thinking; it’s logical inference. Natural processes cannot explain the beginning of nature. Causes inside the universe cannot explain the origin of the universe. Only something outside of time and space — something eternal and intelligent — could bring the cosmos into being in such exquisite balance.</p>
  <h2>Science Points Beyond Itself</h2>
  <p>Science has shown us many wonders, but the deeper we look, the clearer it becomes that our universe is not an accident. The laws of physics themselves seem written with purpose. Gravity, electromagnetism, the strong and weak nuclear forces — each is precisely tuned to permit the existence of atoms, molecules, and living beings.</p>
  <p>Physicists call this the fine-tuning problem. Christians call it the handiwork of God.</p>
  <p>Even those who do not believe in God must wrestle with the reality that everything in the cosmos appears set up for life. The low entropy of the universe’s beginning, the structure of carbon atoms, the balance of cosmic forces — all point to a reality far greater than chance.</p>
  <h2>From Physics to Faith</h2>
  <p>Some try to explain away the miracle of the beginning by appealing to multiverse theories — the idea that infinite universes exist, and we just happen to be in the “lucky” one. But such arguments only push the question back a step:</p>
  <p>Who designed the multiverse?</p>
  <p>Who established its laws?</p>
  <p>Chance cannot explain why anything exists rather than nothing — or why the laws of probability exist at all.</p>
  <p>Ultimately, every worldview must answer this question:</p>
  <p>Why is there something rather than nothing?</p>
  <p>Atheism has no satisfying answer. Christianity does.</p>
  <div class="scripture">“Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made.”<span class="ref"> – John 1:3</span></div>
  <p>The Bible declares that God created the universe from nothing (ex nihilo), and the discoveries of modern physics echo that truth. What the prophets proclaimed by revelation, cosmology has now confirmed by observation.</p>
  <h2>The Evidence of a Miracle</h2>
  <p>So, do miracles happen? Yes — and the first and greatest one surrounds us every moment. The very existence of the universe — ordered, structured, and alive — is the most profound miracle of all.</p>
  <p>The initial conditions of the cosmos are not random; they are purposeful. They bear the fingerprints of intelligence, power, and love. They whisper of a Creator who not only made the world but designed it so that human beings could exist, seek, and know Him.</p>
  <h2>The Personal Miracle</h2>
  <p>But the story doesn’t end with physics. The same God who brought the universe out of nothing also offers to bring life out of your emptiness. The same power that shaped galaxies can reshape your heart.</p>
  <p>In Jesus Christ, the Creator entered His creation. The One who established the laws of nature stepped into history to redeem a fallen world. And the resurrection — the triumph of life over death — is the continuation of the same creative miracle that began in Genesis 1:1.</p>
  <div class="scripture">“For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made His light shine in our hearts…”<span class="ref"> – 2 Corinthians 4:6</span></div>
  <h2>Conclusion: The Miracle You Can Know</h2>
  <p>The low-entropy beginning of the universe is not just a scientific curiosity; it is an invitation. It points beyond chance to design, beyond matter to mind, beyond physics to a Person.</p>
  <p>The cosmos began with purpose — and that purpose includes you.</p>
  <p>The One who fine-tuned the universe for life also fashioned you to know Him. The evidence is not only written in the stars but in your very soul.</p>
  <div class="scripture">“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.”<span class="ref"> – Psalm 19:1</span></div>
  <p>Do miracles occur?</p>
  <p>Yes.</p>
  <p>The universe is one.</p>
  <p>Life is another.</p>
  <p>And the greatest miracle of all is that the Creator who called the universe into being now calls you to Himself.</p>
