Bible Question, How can it be proved that God is the creator

➦ Bible Question. How can it be proved that God is the creator of the universe and all living things? ◤◤ ◤        Answer:                                 ◢◢ ◢ One cannot say a king does not exist simply because he has not seen him in the palace. The proof God created all things is creation itself. How can anything grow if there is no seed and how can anything sprout if nothing has been planted? The Creator is life and the words of God, who is life, become the seed to create all things (Lk 8:11; Jn 1:1-4). The creation of heaven and the earth is like the son existing because the father exists. The son knows his father. The reason why a son may not know his father is because he is not the son. https://youtu.be/OYQl1j2SUY4   #BIBLE_QUESTION #BIBLE_STUDY #BIBLE #SHINCHEONJI_CH...
