The Moral Argument for the Existence of God

The moral argument is used very effectively today against the problem of evil. This slide show walks through the basic premises of the argument to the conclusion that God must exist. Feel free to advance the slides as you listen to the audio.

Understanding the Moral Argument

The moral argument starts with the fact that we all recognize real right and wrong. Even those who raise the problem of evil assume there is a standard of good. A moral law that binds everyone points to a moral Lawgiver: God.

Paul wrote that the Gentiles “show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness” (Romans 2:15).

Christians do not need to be afraid of hard questions. The evidence for God is all around us, and careful reasoning leads to Him. Follow the slides as you listen to the audio. For the other arguments in this series, see The Cause and Effect Argument, The Design Argument, and The Moral Argument.

How to use these slides: Advance the slides as you listen, and pause to think through each premise before moving on. Ask yourself whether the premise is true and whether the conclusion follows. These studies are useful for young people preparing for college, for anyone with doubts, and for Christians who want to answer a friend’s questions with gentleness and respect. If you would like to talk through any of these arguments, please contact us.
