"The Argument from Contingency" (sometimes called the Leibnizian Cosmological Argument)

by William Lane Craig

1.  Every existing thing has an explanation of its existence, either in the necessity of its own nature or in an external cause.
2.  If the universe has an explanation of its existence, that explanation is God.
3.  The universe is an existing thing.
4.Therefore the explanation of the existence of the universe is God.
