宇宙是被智慧設計者創造的

From Chatgpt.com  創造論支持者提出了一些論點來支持「宇宙是被智慧設計者創造的」這一觀點,主要從哲學、科學、神學等角度進行論證。以下是一些主要的有利論點:   --- ### **1. 宇宙的第一因(First Cause Argument)** - 這個論點基於「宇宙萬物皆有因果關係」,認為宇宙不能從虛無中自行產生,因此必定有一個「第一因」(First Cause)。 - 大爆炸理論(Big Bang Theory)表明宇宙有一個起點,但它並未解釋「是什麼導致大爆炸」,創造論者認為這個「第一因」就是造物主或上帝。 📌 **對應的哲學論證:**   - **宇宙論論證(Cosmological Argument)**:一切存在的事物都需要原因,宇宙必須有一個超然的創造者。   - **卡拉姆宇宙論(Kalam Cosmological Argument)**:     1. 凡是有開始的事物,必有一個成因。     2. 宇宙有一個開始。     3. 因此,宇宙必然有一個成因,即創造者。   --- ### **2. 精準調節(Fine-Tuning Argument)** - 宇宙的物理常數(如引力常數、強弱核力、電磁力)若有絲毫變化,生命就無法存在。   - 例如:   - 質子與電子的質量比若改變,原子無法形成。     - 宇宙膨脹速度稍快或稍慢,宇宙不是過早崩潰就是無法形成恆星。   - 這些精確的數值暗示宇宙似乎是被「設計」來適合生命的。   📌 **對應的哲學論證:**   - **宇宙微調論(Fine-Tuning Argument)**:這種精準的調節不太可能是偶然,而更像是來自一個有智慧的設計者。   --- ### **3. 生命的起源與生物複雜性** - 即使在最簡單的細胞內部,也有極其複雜的DNA、蛋白質、細胞結構,這些都需要高度有序的信息與機制。   - 「無法簡化的複雜性」(Irreducible Complexity):一些生物系統(如細菌鞭毛馬達)由多個部分組成,這些部分如果少一個都無法運作,難以通過達爾文的自然選擇...

Does each apostle have the total nine spiritual gifts cited in 1 Cor 12:7ff?

  J: Does each apostle have the total nine spiritual gifts cited in 1 Cor 12:7ff? T:I would say that it is likely that each apostle had all of the total nine spiritual gifts listed in 1Corinthians chapter 12. They all were baptized with the Holy Spirit. Paul was able by the laying on of hands of an apostle to bestow all of the gifts to the Corinthian congregation as a whole (1Corinthians 1:7). This does not mean that each Christian received a gift, but only those that Paul laid hands on.  1 Co 1:7 So that ye come behind in no gift ; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: Also it seems that all the apostles could bestow these gifts because Paul speaks of "the signs of an apostle" in 2nd Corinthians 12:12.  Also in 2nd Corinthians 11:5 ; 12:11 said that he was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. 2 Co 11:5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles . J:2Co 12:11  I have become foolish; you yourselves compelled me. Actually...

Baptized into Moses (1 Cor 10:1-4)

👇 C. M. (Chuck) Horner (WVBS course notes) 1. Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea,  I do not want you to be unaware (ignorant):   a. The Greek word γὰρ, “for,” ties this to the preceding verses. Paul buffeted his body in order to keep from being rejected. Now he proceeds to show that though the Israelites were delivered from bondage, miraculously preserved in the wilderness, all but two were not allowed to enter Canaan.  b. Unaware (ignorant) . This means that he wants them to know this for their own welfare.  All our fathers were under the cloud. This was a cloud by day to protect from the heat of the sun and a pillar of fire by night to give them light. It was also an assurance to them that Jehovah’s presence was with them .  All passed through the sea. The Red Sea, assurance of their freedom from Egypt .  2. all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in t...

👇Denny Petrillo - WVBS course notes  37 For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah.  Days of Noah . People have always done what they want to do, with little or no regard for the things of the Lord.  38 For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, they were marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,  Jesus is not implying that they were engaging in wicked activities. There is nothing wrong with eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, etc. The point is, these activities were their life’s focus. They were not thinking about preparing their lives for eternity, but living just for the “now”.  39 and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so shall the coming of the Son of Man be.  Noah, a man of righteousness, preached 120 years endeavoring to get them to prepare, but they did not understand until the flood came. In that brief...
