The Cosmological Argument
Question
The cosmological argument comes to prove that someone created the world and that He Himself was not created. Does it also prove that He exists even after He created the world, or from the perspective of the cosmological argument is there no proof that He exists beyond the moment of the world's creation, and it could be that He ceased to exist (Heaven forbid) a moment after He created the world?
Answer
In principle, no. You can't derive His eternity from that argument.
Discussion on Answer
I don't think there are.
Are there proofs for the eternity of the Holy One, blessed be He, or do we know that only from tradition?
