I don't put much faith in folks such as you who choose to site verses written by men..........I'm surprised you didn't quote Corinthians which happened to be the topic for three years at the last church I attended till the "pastor" was kicked out for certain, undisclosed indiscretions...........LOL!
Hawking is a genius and a creation of God even tho he is an admitted atheist. At least he's not a hypocrite.........
Indeed, we all shall see...
I suppose more folks than just Hawking etc, genius or not, fit the bill.
Me, I am simply suggesting that the sci-fi theoretical physics dreamed up in an imagination pre-set to avoid the reality of a first cause to deny the same.
I like it when Hawking etc al declared the universe “needed” to come into existence”, simply saying so demands a personality, as “it” is a personal pro-noun. They devise all sorts of explanations of the physics while strenuously avoiding the obvious- all actions must have an actor- they violate the basic tenants of the body of knowledge (science) they claim to be expert at.
This little boy is a case in point. He is a creation of the Almighty- and with Him, all things are possible.
