“But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of
this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the
face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all
these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

— Jesus, Luke 21:34—36

The Big Bang Finally Figured Out! Well, Maybe Not Exactly.





     It simply amazes me every time there is fresh breaking news that someone has figured out how the big bang or some other evolutionary myth happened. Shockingly, proponents of these stories feel they have finally figured out what occurred billions of years ago. By the way, I should add as a disclaimer that I do not believe the world was created anywhere near billions of years ago. Read this recent article from Fox News: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/11/09/scientists-create-worlds-mini-big-bang/?test=faces.

     I would like to see the scientific community first remove all the tools they used to simulate this experiment. Then remove everything else they used. Then remove all the air that is in the experimental zone. Then remove every force that might influence the experiment. Additionally, they could not use anything in the experiment. If they can simulate the big bang after that, then we would have some breaking news.

     The Apostle Paul warned that the day would come when people would believe in myths rather than God’s truth, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” 2 Timothy 4:3, 4 (NKJV). I believe we are living in the day that Paul was talking about.

     Because not one of us were eye witnesses to our world’s creation, the only way we could ever know what occurred in the beginning is if someone who was there tells us. Fortunately for us, the One who created our world told us, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1 (NKJV). And speaking specifically of the second member of our Triune God, Jesus Christ, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.” John 1:1—3 (NKJV).

     Don't allow science to create a false god in your mind through the myth of evolution and the big bang. Consider the Apostle Paul’s sermon to the Athenians, who worshipped many gods that they created in their minds:

     Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious; for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription:

          TO THE UNKNOWN GOD.

     Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you: God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands. Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’ Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man’s devising. Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”

     And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, “We will hear you again on this matter.” So Paul departed from among them. However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

Acts 17:22—34 (NKJV) (underlined emphasis added).

     Don’t keep groping in the dark for the unknown god who evolved the big bang. The only true God is the God of the Bible, and He is not far from you. The scientists of this world will come up with newer and newer theories on how our world was created. Forget them! Listen to the One who was there!

     If you hear His voice, do as Jesus commanded, “Repent, and believe in the gospel.” Mark 1:15b (NKJV).
