The Doctrine of God - Ontological Argument for the Existence of God

"For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God." (Hebrews 3:4)

The word ontological comes from the root "being" and is a deductive argument that only indicates the probable existence of God. (See Rom. 1:20 and Ps. 94:9 for stronger arguments.) It reasons that the idea of a perfect and infinite Being cannot be derived from a finite and imperfect human being. Therefore, a perfect and infinite Being who exists must have placed the idea in mankind.
