NY Post ^ | 17 October 2018 | Lia Eustachewich

God is not dead — he or she never existed in the first place, Stephen Hawking declared in his final book.

“There is no God,” the late theoretical physicist wrote in “Brief Answers to the Big Questions,” CNN reported. “No one directs the universe.”

I’m so glad the Self Appointed Deity cleared all that up for us. We’d been fooling ourselves for thousands of years.

His book title should actually read...”IMHO There is no God”
Because, in fact, its just only one mans opinion with absolutely no way to prove otherwise!

beliver’s faith is based on truth- an unbeleiver’s ‘faith’ (declaration of rejection) is based on an unwillingness to accept the truth.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

God: “There is no Stephen Hawking”

God CREATED Stephen Hawking.....so He would NEVER say that...

Stephen Hawking’s never impressed me despite those in his community who honored the man. Hawking has always declared he was an Atheist...His God was science.

as said......“Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe. But now science offers a more convincing explanation,” he said. “What I meant by ‘we would know the mind of God’ is, we would know everything that God would know, if there were a God, which there isn’t. I’m an atheist.”

Hey all, can you ‘find’ God if you have no faith? Just wondering...

[[...the evidence]]

The Holy spirit provides the evidence- He revelas the truth to us all- God also provides evidence in nature stating that He has provided all the evidence necessary for Belief in Him, so that noone will have an excuse for rejecting Him

Psaml 19:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.
His existence on this earth, as horrible as it was to be wheelchair bound is nothing compared to what he is in for after the final judgment. He is what my mom always called an educated idiot.

all unsaved people have no faith in God- They can’t, their hearts are desperately wicked- It is God who draws us all to Him and reveals His truth to us while we are in our desperately wicked state of unbelief

As a declared Atheist Hawking’s wrote in The Grand Design.... “It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going.”...............He ‘believed’ that over time science has and could explain everything. His 'faith' was in science, the explained as well as that which could not be explained by science.

lemme clarify a little bit more- unsaved people may have knowledge that there ‘may be a God’- or they may even be convinced there is a God, but the unsaved person has not put their Faith in God for salvation- Their eyes have not been opened for them to see their need for a Savior until God draws them and reveals the TRuth to them, at which point, the unsaved person accepts Christ through faith- it is only at the point of salvation that faith in Christ becomes a reality- A person can believe Christ lived, died, and even rose from the dead, and still not have saving faith- still reject His saving Grace-

Ok, let’s draw that out. So faith has to be with a Jeudo-Christian entity. What happened to people of faith prior to Moses? Did their faith count for anything?

And now his existence is an even worse hell than he suffered on earth, only this is for eternity.

Stephen was NOT an evil man...he was, instead, a man who many think was in error in his interpretation of a God created universe. He studied the physical nature of the universe, but probably/possibly misinterpreted the spiritual nature of it. My interpretation of a just and merciful God would INSURE that Stephen had a place in Heaven and his earthly suffering would eliminate any temporary retribution for his shortcomings.....

So, your faith hinges on the fact that since you have a special place for Jesus in your heart, the ‘faithless’ must in your worldview be deprived of your God’s love and mercy. Is that it?
