General revelation argument

[CeaselessMedik]

The “general revelation” argument for God’s existence was stated to me as, “we are aware that the beauty in nature is intentional and loving.” What is the actual argument?

Dear CeaselessMedik,
Essentially, general revelation is knowledge about God and spiritual matters that is discovered via natural means, i.e. observation of nature, or logic through philosophy and reasoning.
For example, it can be reasoned that God exists because the universe is created, and nothing does not create something, so there must have been a Divine Being to create matter and start the universe.

Only someone who hasn’t seen very much of nature would buy that argument.
