The Big Bang Theory vs. The Bible’s Account of Creation

Newton’s theory of universal gravitation is now regarded as a law that supports the Big Bang theory. In the world of modern science, theories can rather quickly become laws. All it takes is for a generation of skeptics to die out and for succeeding generations to be taught that the theory has been proved. Our schools have become indoctrination centers that brainwash children by requiring them to regurgitate the desires “facts” rather than teach us to think critically. Those who “learn” what they are supposed to think are rewarded with good grades and the approval of the system. Skeptics are punished. Those of us who question the globe experience this first hand.

Those who have been indoctrinated to believe in the globe quickly attack anyone who strays from the fold. Once one questions the reality of the globe, one also sees other falsities that are used to support the big lie. The theory or law of universal gravitation is one such lie.

Everyone understands that things fall down when they are dropped. Newton named this phenomenon “gravity.” The laws of density and buoyancy describe this, too. Things fall downward toward the earth until they encounter mass of a greater density. Then they stop. The opposite is also true. Things rise upward if their density is less than the density that surrounds them. Hot air rises until it encounters a less dense environment. Helium balloons illustrate this “anti-gravity” phenomenon well.

Where Newton departed from reality was to posit that “gravity” is a universal law, that all masses attract and are attracted by other masses. As mentioned in my previous article, Newton ascribed to the occult theories of Hermes Trismegistus, who believed that a force emanated from the sun that controlled the rest of the universe. Newton gave this force a scientific name and used it to explain how the sun god was able to keep its subjects under control.

From that occult beginning, modern astrophysics has taken Newton’s supposed law of universal gravitation and used it to “explain” how the Big Bang took place. We now believe that the universe is much grander than Newton supposed. The so-called solar system is considered to be a micro-system within an incredible array of galaxies of stars and planets in an ever-expanding universe of incomprehensible proportions. This universe, it is reasoned, had to begin somehow; so, scientists reason that if we take the universe’s expansion backwards, we will arrive at a place and time when the original “explosion” took place. This is called the Big Bang. No attempt is made to explain where the initial energy and condensed matter came from. It is supposed to have been self-existent. Matter and energy have the eternal attributes that have been traditionally given to God. This shows the purpose of the anti-god theories of the universe – to deny the existence of God.

Since most people accept that something cannot self-generate from nothing, those who reject the Creator as the source require another “god” to account for the emergence of the universe – gravity. Steven Hawking affirms such a belief.

The universe began with the Big Bang, which simply followed the inevitable law of physics. Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist. The universe didn’t need a God to begin; it was quite capable of launching its existence on its own.

Is it any surprise that the theory of gravity has become an “inevitable” law? Einstein’s mathematical equations, according to modern theoretical physicists, allow for gravity to act both as an attractive and as a repulsive force, given the right conditions, which astrophysicists claim existed prior to the Big Bang.

Below is an 11-minute video that explains this impossible to prove position.

Those who ascribe to logic will undoubtedly laugh out loud when we are told that we “know” that, at the time of the Big Bang, what is now all energy and matter was condensed into a single point at extremely high temperatures. Yet such imaginative speculation is now taught as fact at the university level, just as is evolution.

Let us not forget that there is a very great difference between a theory and a fact.

Those who accept a man-made theory over the wisdom of God’s Word become fools.

Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools. Romans 1:22 (NLT)

Just as Darwin’s insights into the process of natural selection gave atheists the scientific “hook” upon which to base their unprovable “theory” of evolution, thereby dispensing with the need for a Creator and making man a meaningless accident, godless astrophysicists use gravity to accomplish the same end. Once evolution entered the vocabulary of the scientific community, every branch of knowledge was affected.

Sadly, many who hold the Bible dear have gone along for the ride, feeling compelled to “reinterpret” the Bible’s words to agree with what is believed to be proven scientific truth and and end up being “ashamed” of God’s Word.

Genesis declares that the Creator God existed in the beginning, and John tells us that the eternal Logos, God’s only begotten Son, spoke everything into existence out of nothing.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. John 1:1–3 (NASB95)

Not only did the Logos create the world; he sustains and holds it together every moment.

And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power... Hebrews 1:3a (NASB95)

He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. Colossians 1:17 (NASB95)

We do not need an unproven theory of universal gravitation to hold everything together. We have the assurance that God does that.

It is a huge error to equate universal gravitation with Jesus. It makes a divine Person an impersonal force of nature and reduces the Creator God to the Star Wars version of deity called “The Force.”

Just because objects on earth fall down until they reach something more dense or rise until encountering something less dense, does not mean that there is some universal force attracting us toward the sun. Genesis teaches that the sun runs a circuit around the earth, and not that the earth runs a circuit around the sun.

Einstein and others have said imagination is necessary to comprehend theoretical physics. When we go to a movie or watch a television drama, we are expected to suspend our sense of reality and enter into a fabricated world of imagination. For the past several decades, Walt Disney and Hollywood have provided us with movie after movie presenting to us the imaginary world of “outer space” travel. Every classroom has the ever-present globe. Many corporations use some version of the globe in their logos. Every movie produced by Universal Studios begins with a picture of the globe. Once we see this, we will realize how much we are being brainwashed.

We are taught to imagine that the universe of the astrophysicist is real and the cosmos described in the Bible is archaic and primitive.

Nobody that I know of in my field uses the so-called scientific method. In our field it is by the seat of your pants, leaps of logic. It is guesswork.  —Michio Kaku, C-SPAN Interview (Source)

Theoretical physicists ask an admiring population to go along for the ride when it comes to what gravity can do and the cosmos looks like.

For example, it takes the entire planet Earth to attract a feather to the floor, but we can counteract Earth’s gravity by lifting the feather with a finger. The action of our finger can counteract the gravity of an entire planet that weighs over six trillion trillion kilograms. ― Michio Kaku, Physics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration of the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation, and Time Travel

We are expected to believe that a force that compressed the entire universe into a mere point in space at the time of the Big Bang and then paradoxically caused it to explode, now holds impossibly big planets enthralled in synchronous orbits AND can be easily overcome with the least amount of effort. We are expected to believe that the force that holds untold tons of ocean water to the surface of a curved earth against the incalculable centrifugal force generated by its over 1000 mph rotation at the equator is gentle enough to allow droplets of water to ascend heavenward when two waves slap together. Anyone who has tried to hold on to a spinning merry-go-round knows that this is an astounding claim. Common sense tells us that if gravity can hold water to the earth’s surface under such conditions, it would crush everything.

Once we surrender our minds to the imagination of people who have rejected God’s Word, we end up believing unbelievable things. It seems that nothing is impossible for gravity.

And what about the paradox of gravity allowing smoke to ascend effortlessly while simultaneously restraining the incomprehensible power of the supposed vacuum of “outer space” from sucking away our atmosphere? This defies all common sense and known laws of physics, too.

Adopting the anti-biblical heliocentric view requires the earth to rotate at about 1039 mph at the equator to account for the motion of the sun, moon, and stars. Astonishingly, we who live on this “planet” feel no such motion, supposedly because only acceleration can be felt, not speed. We are also expected to believe that our atmosphere is in the grip of gravity as well, which is why we do not feel any wind generated by the earth’s rotation. If that is true, how then is it possible for us to feel gentle breezes and forceful winds going in all sorts of directions?

I believe that this confusion is the result of rejecting the Bible’s geocentric cosmology.

I firmly believe that the Word of God tells us that God created a stationary earth first and the sun, moon, and stars later, which move around it. Heliocentrists regard this to be a foolish, uninformed, archaic position. However, I believe that it is impossible to come to any other conclusion, if one accepts the Bible as our authority.

A stationary earth agrees with our sensory experience and common sense. It also conforms with the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment. But since Einstein had already concluded that the solar system is heliocentric, he ingeniously “nullified” the “threat” of these findings by developing his theory of special relativity, which claimed that the metal box in which the experiment took place shrank. Cleverly, he mathematically rendered invalid Michelson-Morley’s demonstrated proof of the earth’s being at rest, claiming that his new theory removed the possibility of even being able to test whether the earth is in motion or not. This circular logic is an example of how the devil cleverly obfuscates the truth. Nicola Tesla, a contemporary of Einstein, recognized BS when he saw it. Here is what he said about that man’s theories.

“It’s a magnificent mathematical garb which fascinates, dazzles and makes people blind to the underlying errors. The theory is like a beggar clothed in purple whom ignorant people take for a king…” – Nicola Tesla

 

More recently, several experiments were conducted to measure cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. Astoundingly, the results indicated that earth is the center of the universe, just as the Bible claims! The red shift that scientists say they detect in the stars show the same thing. (If you are interested in learning more about this, here is a link to a movie entitled, The Principle.) Edwin Hubble, after whom the famous telescope was named, refused to accept the obvious geocentric conclusion on philosophical grounds.

…Such a condition would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the ancient conception of a central Earth…This hypothesis cannot be disproved, but it is unwelcome and would only be accepted as a last resort in order to save the phenomena. Therefore we disregard this possibility…. the unwelcome position of a favored location must be avoided at all costs…. such a favored position is intolerable…Therefore, in order to restore homogeneity, and to escape the horror of a unique position…must be compensated by spatial curvature. There seems to be no other escape.”(The Observational Approach to Cosmology)

This avowed determination to contradict the Bible should be extremely concerning to all who pursue God’s truth. I can almost hear the serpent’s hiss: ” Has God really said?”

I believe that the only way back from the abyss of godless astrophysics is to embrace the truth of God’s Word and acknowledge the Creator.

The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. 2 Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. 3 There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard. 4 Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, Psalm 19:1–4 (NKJV)
