In Proof Week 4, Pastor Brian presents the argument for God based on biblical prophecy.

In Proof Week 3 Pastor Brian will reason that God gave moral laws, also called objective truth, that all cultures throughout time have followed. The argument then follows that if God does not exist, than neither does objective moral value. However, as objective moral values do exist, then God must exist.
