Logical reason to believe in God

[Jennifer Rogers]

The Provisional Atonement would answer this.

Provisional Atonement (not "Limited Atonement").
(A 100% Work of God alone that can only be applied personally to an individual's life via by being saved by God's grace and Sanctification).

This is Jesus paying the price for the sins of the entire world so as to offer mankind the free gift of salvation (if they so choose to accept it); Note: Christ's resurrection (to give us a new body not tainted by sin one day), and the ascension to the Father (after Christ telling Mary not to touch Him), and his entering the holy temple by his blood (to be our Heavenly High Priest) is also included in the Provisional Atonement, too. (For Provisional Atonement verses, see: John 1:29, 1 John 2:2, 1 Timothy 2:6, 2 Corinthians 5:19, Romans 5:6-8.) (Note: The best way to describe the Provisional Atonement is like a man who paid the price to pay off your debts by his handing you a check to be debt free; But it is up to you to receive the check, deposit it into your checking account, and pay off those you are in debt to; It's a gift, but like all good gifts in life, you have to receive the gift and use it properly to be of any benefit). Jesus provided an atonement, but it is up to us to receive it to personally apply to our lives by having a proper faith. Men will remain as sinners if they reject the Provisional Atonement of Jesus Christ. Jesus provided a provisional atonement (salvation) in dealing with sin as a way of escape for mankind to be saved through accepting Him (Who is the gift).

What is one goal or major reason Christ gave Himself for us?

“...even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” (Ephesians 5:25-27).

“...our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.” (Titus 2:13-14).

Cumulus clouds can carry up to one million pounds of moisture and the clouds move around the earth, and then release the moisture as rain, the earths gravity pulls the rain drops to the earths surface, it all starts with evaporation of water that goes upward and collects and forms clouds. And the earth has many systems for plants, trees, animals and humans to survive.

What if just one system was missing? 1. Evaporation. 2. Cloud density: The ability for clouds to carry a million pounds of moisture when the earths gravity pulls down something as light as rain drops, clouds float is due to a cloud's low density and the buoyancy from the surrounding air. 3. Wind to move the clouds around the earth. 4. Condensation. 5. What if the clouds would keep going upwards and drift into space? 6. The earth's gravity. 7. capillary action were water moves upward through the roots all the way up to the highest leaf of the tallest tree. 8. Precipitation. 9. The atmosphere. 10. The magnetic field around the earth. 11. The ozone layer. 12. the distance between the earth and the sun is good for life on earth. 13. Earth rotation: Earth's spin causes the day and night cycles, which helps plants, trees and phytoplankton to survive.
14. Photosynthesis. 15. The sun's energy.

*If any system was missing, all life would die.
*Yes, Earth's distance from the sun, within the habitable zone is critical for life because it provides the right temperature range for liquid water, which is essential for most known life forms.
*All living cells need systems, a membrane, to take in nutrients, to eliminate waste, RNA, DNA or the cell would die quickly.

This is one reason I believe in God.

As the sound of music songs say, " Nothing comes from nothing, nothing never did! "

What ever has a begining has a cause.
The universe has a begining.
Therefore there is a cause that started the universe.

20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
