Hi, GodIsAwesome, welcome to WWGHA. I hope you'll stay with us for a while, rather than being a "drive-by", which unfortunately we see all too often.
God created the world and the laws it abides by.
Evidence?
It is infinitely more miraculous for us to experience God work inside the laws he's created on Earth rather than for Him to not abide by them.
Since this is an opinion, not an assertion of fact, I can't really address it in any way other than to say that I disagree.
Outside of this world God can do anything and everything, as I'm sure many people have posted verses from the Bible stating such.
Yes, many people here have made that
claim. However, when pressed on the matter, they tend to be rather lacking in the evidence department.
In this world, He chooses not to do so
Then how do you know he can do them at all? If I say I can float in the air like a soap bubble and never demonstrate it, do you assume that I have the ability and choose not to use it, or do you assume that I'm lying about having the ability?
outside of Him coming to Earth in human form as Jesus and raising from the dead.
The historicity of this event is, to phrase it generously, highly controversial. Or, to put it another way, if it were a settled historical matter, then there would be far fewer non-Christians.
There are many example of this. Read about the 10 plagues of Egypt. Then find, somewhere on the internet, a scientific explanation of these events.
Here's a perfectly scientific explanation: the plagues are a myth. See how easy that was?
Christianity and science should not be viewed as rivals.
Then why is it that, for the past several centuries, whenever the Church has said one thing about the nature of reality and science has said something different, the Church has always been wrong, without exception? And why is it that the Church's response for so many centuries was not to say, "OK, yes, we were wrong about this, we will therefore change our doctrine," but instead to murder, or threaten to murder, whoever it was holding the contrary view?
God is the ultimate scientist
What does that even mean? Science is a human invention. I mean, Is God also the ultimate FORTRAN programmer?
and His greatness is shown in all things of this world.
In what way? Or ways?
An amputee regaining a limb would, clearly, not abide by the rules he created so very long ago.
This is patently false. In the Gospels, Jesus states, more than once, that if you have faith, you will receive anything you ask for in prayer -- no exceptions. For example:
Matthew 17:20 -- For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.
Mark 11:24 -- Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
John 14:12-14 -- Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son; if you ask anything in my name, I will do it.
So quite contrary to what you say, it is very much in "the rules he created so very long ago" that amputees should be getting their limbs back. And yet, it never happens. Why do you think that is?
