Did the ‘Big Bang’ really happen?

This is the question I am going to answer today: Did the Big Bang really happen? Using quotes from both sides, verses from the Bible, and just logic, I will tell you what I think about it, and let you decide for yourself what you believe.
In the Beginning God created the heaven and the earth…’
                                                                               -Genesis 1:1

Do you recognize that one? Not everyone will, but it is the very first verse in the Bible, and I believe it makes more sense than:

There was nothing, then a bang, and there it was
                                                                             -Evolution

I know I am paraphrasing a bit there, but you get my point right? I do not believe that this could have happened by chance; no it needed a Creative Creator! This is what is simply (or not so simply) stated by this:

  "Questions of origin have always been the most difficult ones to answer. But perhaps the most fundamental of all questions concerns the origin of the universe. Many astronomers and physicists today feel they have found the answer. They believe that the Universe was created at one instant in a hot explosion, called the big bang, and the basic structure was decided in the first billion-billion-billion-billionth of a second (10-36 seconds). But this hypothesis has serious deficiencies, which the results from the satellite COBE have already served to highlight. 

There are three major problems with the big bang model. First, as a theory of physics, it breaks a cardinal rule by violating the law of matter and energy…‘Secondly, the microwave background is believed to be the strongest evidence. Yet such a fundamental feature of radiation cannot be deduced from any calculations of the early Universe. Its value is assumed.

The third problem is that big band cosmology is supposed to explain the origin of most nuclei. But although it can with some success explain the formation of helium and deuterium. It runs into problems…The knots into which big band theorists have tied themselves in the post-COBE era convinced Fred Hoyle, Geoffrey Burbidge and myself that we should seriously explore an alternative framework for cosmology."
Narlikar, Jayant, “Challenge for the Big Bang,” New Scientist, vol. 138 (June 19 1993), pp. 27-30

The just of it is, in an evolutionist own words; there are three major problems in the big bang theory and it is enough that it would convince three evolutionists that they needed a new way to explain our origin. I believe that way is God.

Look around you, what do you see? Just out of my window I see yellow flowers, green leafs and grass, and brown bark of the trees, do you suppose that happened by chance? How could something so beautiful be created by an explosion? If I showed you a beautiful oil painting and I told you that a monkey thew a candle into a barrel of oil and when the exploded, it created that! What would you say? You would probably say 'NO WAY! Who was the artist really?'

Our world is like that beautiful painting, I believe that our world is like that beautiful painting, God is the real artist, and the big bang is like, the crazy monkey being an explanation to where the world came from.

So who will you decide to believe in, the monkey of chaos…or God?

From Prison to Peace

It’s been quite a while since I have been able to write! I have had a wonderful, crazy summer! From dance camps to just swimming, I’ve had a great time. But I’ve returned, with more words that God has put on my heart. I hope you enjoy! The enemy is constantly trying to steal our peace. He is trying to steal our Joy. He is trying to keep us in bondage. Whether through deaths, broken relationships, or just day to day arguments, he is after us all. Tonight I realize why he does this. In Ephesians 6, Paul writes about the armor of God. As some of you will recall, this includes the shoes of the Gospel of Peace. When people trap or enslave others, they remove their shoes, to keep them from attempting escape. The Devil does the same thing. He has lulled us to sleep, and ensnared us in a dreary circle of apathy. Then, he removes our shoes, our peace, to ensure our detainment.  It is time to rise up and end our bondage! Even though Satan works to steal our peace, we can receive a...

Truth Over Lies

It starts as a small, still voice. Hiding in the back of your mind saying “is that REALLY true?” And just like that, the seed is planted. Even when you push it away for awhile, it still comes back, over and over. And one day, you realize you believe it. And that doubt, that lie, has become your truth.  You know what else starts as a still, small voice? Gods direction. You just have to stop and listen. Sometimes that means asking Him about your doubt or issue, sometimes it means simply focusing on Jesus and His beautiful power that surrounds you always.  Fear grows with attention. So does doubt. So does a 3 year old temper tantrums. So does your faith. Where is your attention going? What is clambering for your time, and what is winning? Because just as a 3 year old eventually gives up when he doesn’t get their way, Satan eventually stops trying. It may seem like a LONG time, and he usually tries to come back with something else, but you CAN win. In fact, we already...

Starting to Swim

“ …Your grace abounds in deepest waters Your sovereign hand Will be my guide Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me You've never failed and You won't start now.” Most of you have probably heard this moving song before by Hillsong United. It is a touching melody about allowing God move us into deeper waters. This theme, of going deeper into God’s heart, has been a recurring thought for me, and now I want to share those thoughts with you. The soft sand beneath your feet. The cool water at your fingertips.  The smell of salt in the air.  For me, this discribes one of God’s beautiful creations, the ocean. Though I am surrounded by land, I love our annual trip to Alabama’s coast line. It is refreshing to hear the waves crashing and just soak in God’s glory. But one thing is at the back of my mind whenever we go. Sharks. Although I know we will probably never swim far enough to actually encounter one, they have a powerful presence in the wat...
