Biblical Astronomy Forces: How Did The Universe Get Here?

548 Words3 Pages

Biblical astronomy forces scientists to answer three important questions. Number one: How did the universe get here? Evolutionists say that a Big Bang exploded, and this explosion just happened to turn into our universe. There are scientific, and Scriptural problems with the Big Bang Theory. One major scientific trouble lies in the fact that the universe is perfectly balanced. Too much matter in space would make everything too heavy, and the universe would collapse. On the other hand, not enough matter in the universe would make everything too light, and it would “fly apart”. (Lisle, 2010) An explosion like the Big Bang would not have created the perfect balance we have today, in fact, it would have destroyed it. The Scriptural problems with this hypothesis should be self -evident. There is no such thing as a “Big Bang” in the Bible! God spoke, and everything was created. That is the Biblical explanation for the existence of the universe. …show more content…

The Bible supports the idea that the earth is young. Creation week, according the records, happened around 6,000 years ago. Scientific data affirms the Scripture’s testimony in this matter, as we shall see shortly. If the universe were millions of years old the following things would be true. The moon is receding away from us currently. Therefore, we would have to mentally reverse the moon’s progression in order to see where it would have been millions of years ago. If we reverse the moon trajectory path millions of years, we would find that the moon would have had to touch the earth- an illogical impossibility. The Biblical model of a young earth makes much more sense. It would explain why we still have comets and spiral galaxies, and also why we still have a strong magnetic field in our universe.

    After Brady says everything in the Bible is true, Drummond says: “now if what you say factually happened--if Joshua halted the sun in the sky--that means the earth stopped spinning on its axis; continents toppled over each other, mountains flew out into space. And the earth, arrested in its orbit, shriveled to a cinder and crashed into the sun. How come they missed this tidbit of news” (Lawrence and Lee 89). Brady looks ignorant as Drummond demolishes him with facts. Drummond considers that Brady says everything in the Bible is true, but why did all these facts get left out from science?

    Those that view the earth as old believe this rest began at the time of God’s resting at the point of creation and will remain until Jesus Christ returns to earth the second time. Lastly, they believe that the earth is 4.5 billion years old. They think this because that is how far we can see into space and how far away is the farthest star we can see in the atmosphere There are a few similarities found between the young earth creationists and the old earth creationists that must be taken into account. First of all, both agree that God the Father created the earth in some form and time period of six days.

  • Does Genesis Contradict Evolution

    Genesis 1 contradicts all of evolution as a theory, stating that an Intelligent Creator (God) created all of the earth along with all of the organisms, animals, and human beings (us). Genesis 2 and 3 state that the Fall of Man brought forth disease and death to the earth, while evolution, on the contrary, states that death and disease were existent even before the evolution of mankind. Finally, Genesis 6-7 gives clear evidence that due to the Flood, many rock layers were formed, contradicting the theories of old earth based off of evolution. As clearly seen above, Genesis (and even the Bible in its entirety) resists any attempt to correlate with evolution and the evolutionary

  • The Big Bang Theory: Similarities Between Science And Religion

    The Biblical standpoint states that God created the universe from complete darkness. Now when comparing it to scientific theory, the Big Bang also started from in an abyss of nothingness and resulted in the creation of the cosmos. In essence, utilizing both of these scenarios, one can say that the Big Bang and the God’s creation of the cosmos are the same events. Now, while religion keeps it at that, by using science, they can delve deeper into this phenomena in order to see how the universe came to be. Not only will this answer the question of how we came to be, but what caused this event to happen.
