CAN I BELIEVE IN GOD AND SCIENCE?
CAN I BELIEVE IN GOD AND SCIENCE?
Some see the relationship between science and the Bible as competitive instead of cooperative.
The conflict between science and faith comes from either misunderstanding science or misinterpreting the Bible.
• Science seeks the truth about our natural world.
• Scripture reveals the truth about our supernatural God.
• Scripture reveals the truth about our supernatural God.
“I have never had clarity; what I have always had is trust.
So I will pray you trust God.” —Mother Teresa
So I will pray you trust God.” —Mother Teresa
You don’t have to know every answer to every question to trust in Jesus. It will always take faith.
SCIENCE AND SCRIPTURE
1. Look at the beginning of everything.
2. Look at the design of the universe.
3. Look at the resurrection of Jesus.
The 6 Minimal Facts (Gary Habermas)
1. Jesus was a real person, and He died by Roman crucifixion.
2. Jesus’ followers experienced what they believed to be actual appearances of a resurrected Jesus.
3. Because of those experiences, these followers were willing to die for their faith in Jesus’ resurrection.
4. The Christian church started right after Jesus was killed, right where Jesus was killed, in the city of Jerusalem.
5. James, the brother of Jesus, was not a Christian until after he believed he saw the resurrected Christ.
6. Paul, who wrote the majority of the New Testament, went from killing Christians to starting churches because he had an experience with who he believed was the risen Christ.

http://www.pclifecenter.com/prayerTalk it over
• How do you typically think about the relationship between science and the Bible?
• Read Revelation 22:13. When you consider science and the Bible as being “both/and” instead of “either/or,” what thoughts and feelings come up?
• Share about an experience that required you to fully trust God, even if you still had questions. How was your faith impacted during that time?
