You decide: Was it Faith or faith?

The Big God Theory

I admit ... I don't have unequivocal proof that God created the universe. The preponderance of evidence indicates that universe was NOT created by fate, whatever that is. Both matter and energy had to originate someplace sometime. That leads me to believe that God created the universe! “The Big God Theory” is in fact a theory. You should not accept it as scientific proof. Likewise, “The Big Bang Theory” should not be accepted. Both are theories for a reason” both require faith! Whereas believers in God readily admit that, scientists never talk of “faith” in presenting their own theories.

Whereas science asks the question “Where did matter and energy originate?', Judeo-Christians honestly admit, God created it, but we don't know where God came from. He just IS and ALWAYS WAS. His name is “I AM THAT I AM” or for short “I AM”.

Exodus (KJV) 3:13”Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they ask me, 'What is his name?' what shall I say to them?" And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.”

The Bible is the written history of the world. It is not a book of fiction nor mythology. Where secular history has questioned biblical history, the Bible has remained accurate. Secular history has been wrong. Why? Because the Bible is not a book of lies and inaccuracies. It's a book of Truth!

Secular science says that matter and energy was spontaneously generated at some point in time. As matter began to accumulate the central mass became greater and greater. As the mass increased gravity became so strong that light could not escape. Eventually all the mass throughout the universe accumulated in one great ball. The ball generated so much energy that we had a “Big Bang”. All the mass in that big ball was hurled throughout the universe forming galaxies, suns, planets, asteroids, red giants, white dwarfs, and whatever else is out there. The physical laws of nature says that this very event could never have happened. Scientists admit that, still claim that it did and call that one act a “discontinuity?. I call it unscientific and a lie!

Let's look for a minute at “nothingness”. “Nothing” means to “have no existence”. The definition of nothing contradicts itself because “nothing” is “something” and it exists! Outside the known matter and energy of the universe is “nothing”. A theoretical spaceship could travel for eternity through that nothingness with a simple gentle initial propulsion. The abilty to travel through “nothing” means it is “something”. From where did “nothingness” come? Scientists can't explain that. God can! He created everything and as I have shown “nothing is something” so it does exists! The belief that God existed before and was and is eternal is called “faith”. Likewise the scientific theories of the same are “faith”. The former is faith with a claim, the latter has no claim ...it just happened.

What if everything did come from the “Big Bang” as they claim. It's circular reasoning because the matter and energy had to come from someplace. Scientists know this and some claim that the “Big Bang” was cyclical. That explanation is still open-ended and requires “faith”, but “faith” with absolutely no evidence. My faith has a source. God tells me from man's history book how it started:

Genesis KJV) 1:1”In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
6And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

Biblical history tells our origins! If you're a Christian and believe in God you only need to believe this (faith). If you claim to be a Christian and don't believe God', you may as well stop pretending and apostatize. God is either Truth or lie. He's not a mixture of both truth and fiction! If you're not a Christian, put aside your thoughts for awhile and read the entire Bible. Start with John, then read Matthew, Mark and Luke. Then come back and read Genesis. It should all then make sense. The Bible and God have what's called “internal consistency”. Although it was written from start to finish over a 2000 year time period, it never contradicts itself. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. God is Truth and God is consistent.

Now read scientific theory over the past 2000 years. Scientists “knew” that the earth was flat, scientists “knew” that Sargon, the greatest Assyrian King, never existed, scientists “knew” that gold could be created from base metals, scientists “knew” that “Nebraska Man” was an early ape and developed a culture around him (this later was admitted to be wrong), science “knew” that “Lucy” was the ancestor of all mankind and even that has now been retracted. Scientific “evidence” is circumstantial, hypothetical and dynamic. Scientists readily admit that, but still claim to have “the truth”: silliness quantified and justified! Where God's word is unchanging science changes as we speak. What will be the new theory tomorrow?

Science and Christianity do agree on two things: 1) Someday the known earth will end and 2) you can't change that. In which theory will you believe? Will it be the fatalistic thought of scientists or the HOPE of God? You may go with the empty cup ...I'm going with the full one! I'm going with God.

Matthew (KJV) 26:39 “And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.”

The “full cup” is Jesus. It is his life, his existence. He gave it up according to God's will, that you may have this “hope” of which I speak called “eternal life”. You may chose death, but I like God's promise! The One who said that he created everything then tells us that you can live forever, but there is a condition: You must believe. You must believe it all and that unshakeable belief is called “faith”. This “thought” started with faith and ends with faith. That's your part. Salvation is through Jesus only for he is the “I AM” of Exodus!
