Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1223302

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 2022407

We can say the word "metaphysical," meaning that which exists outside of the physical, but we cannot comprehend the metaphysical. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1203687

The mystery that remains in the sunset is the riddle of why and how a mixture of seemingly inert, unthinking atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and several other varieties can produce humans capable of having the subjective experience we refer to as beauty, or the love that would have us kiss our kids good night. Science is no closer to answering those questions today than it was a century ago. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1584528

From the tiniest grain of sand to the brain of an Einstein, all existence, animate and inanimate, is the product of the same ninety-two elements that are themselves the harvest of the energy of the creation. At every turn an underlying commonality, a unity, emerges from within the diversity. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 612622

Knowing the plumbing of the universe, intricate and awe-inspiring though that plumbing might be, is a far cry from discovering its purpose. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 685449

Light beams became alive, and became not only alive, but self-aware, and acquired the ability to wonder. The wonder is not whether this genesis took six days or fourteen billion years or even eternity. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 952061

Yet knowing the physics steals none of the wonder as the sky turns from blue to crimson, then deep purple, and finally embraces the black of night as Earth's rotation — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1004957

Now if there is anything in this universe for which we do not have an "inkling," it is the ultimate goal of the Creator. Erroneous notions regarding this goal often stem from the misconception that all existence exists for man alone. The foible in this perception of the universe is the failure to realize that existence itself is good. The Five Books of Moses are bracketed by explicit statements of the worth of being. At the start we are told: "And God saw all that was made and behold it was very good" (Gen. 1:31) — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1294478

It simply lies beyond the capacity of the human mind. And if the Bible is correct, then what created our universe, God, was and is metaphysical. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1399191

The further philosophical problem of there having been a beginning arises with the idea that the beginning of our universe marks the beginning of time, space, and matter. Before our universe came into being, there is every scientific indication that time did not exist. Whatever brought the universe into existence must of course predate the universe, which in turn means that whatever brought the universe into existence must predate time. That which predates time is not bound by time. Not inside of time. In other words, it is eternal. If the laws of physics, or at least some aspect of the laws of physics, did the job of creation, those laws by necessity are eternal. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1483310

Peter 3:8: Unto the Lord, a day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as a day. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1597142

The claim in Psalms that "the heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament proclaims His works" (Psalms 19:2) is not a mere metaphor. The study of nature, even with all its intellectual rigor, is filled with spiritual wonder. — Gerald Schroeder

Gerald Schroeder Quotes 1609055

According to our best understanding of the universe and equally according to the most ancient commentaries on the book of Genesis, there was only one physical creation. Science refers to it as the big bang. The Bible calls it the creation of the heavens and the earth. Every physical object in this vast universe, including our human bodies, is built of the light of creation. — Gerald Schroeder
