INTRODUCTION

Based on what can be touched, seen, measured and calculated concerning the Universe, Solar System, fossil layers, the DNA molecule and the simple living Cell, the experimental measurable facts of science and the science of probability, the facts are that there is no evidence whatsoever in support of the Big Bang or Evolution. The fact is, as I will demonstrate later in this Chapter, that the Evolutionary Paleontologists who run the museums of the world, the ones who have studied the fossil records and have had hands on study of all the known fossils, are themselves saying that all evidence indicates that Evolution is not possible. What they are saying instead is that life from other planets came to earth in a spaceship and placed life here. To explain the fossil records they are saying that a catastrophe occurred like a huge meteor hitting the earth and resulted in rapid deposition which prevented decay. What I present in this Chapter is a brief highlighted summary, after several years of research (1973-2003), of the tangible measurable facts of science which have led to these present conclusions.

Yehovah, the name of God who created the Universe, tells us about Himself through the Prophet Isaiah:

"‘You are My witnesses,’ declares Yehovah, ‘And My servant whom I have chosen, in order that you may know and believe Me, and understand that I am He. Before Me there was no El formed, and there will be none after Me. I, even I, am Yehovah; and there is no Savior besides Me.’" (Is 43:10-11)

In this passage God, El—short for Elohim, makes plain to us that He is eternally existent, He had no beginning. He also makes plain that no one existed before Him or will after Him. There is only one God from eternity past.

Moses wrote in Genesis 1:1, "In-the-beginning⁷⁷⁶." Before anything existed, God, Elohim, existed and Moses tells us that God created the heavens and the earth.

Who is this God who created all that is? Jesus speaking said in John 5:46-47,

"For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote of Me. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?"

Jesus tells us that Moses was writing about Him: Our God and Creator! The Apostle John writes about Jesus, "All things came into being by Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being" (John 1:3).

After God has finished creating all that was created, Moses tells us in Genesis 1:31, "And Elohim430 saw all which He had made, and behold, it was very good. and-there-was2051, 1961a evening and-there-was2051, 1961a morning1242, day3117 sixth." God declared that what He had created was good. He stated this before there was sin and death in the world. Therefore, before Adam and Eve sinned and brought death into the world, Creation reflected God’s character and Person and thus He was glorified through His Creation.

John wrote in Revelation 4:11 about the twenty-four elders before God’s throne in Heaven that they bowed down to God and said,

"Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You did create all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created."

Paul tells us that God the Creator was Jesus Christ. He wrote in Colossians 1:16

"For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities— all things have been created by Him and for Him."

Again he stated in Romans 11:36, "For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things."

Scripture shows us that the purpose of Creation is to bring glory to God. What He did He did according to His will, His purpose and His idea to bring His plans into reality.

God creating, however, does not mean God lacked anything. Again, He created to his own glory. He was perfectly satisfied in and of Himself, eternally happy and self-sufficient, thus needing nothing outside of Himself. Therefore, the reason God created was so He would have creatures that saw Him in His true glory. Secondly He created the universe to show His love and His love for us. Before creation there was perfect love in all eternity between the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. As we look at the world we can see the great beauty and love that God has.

God’s Creation brings Him glory by making Him known. Psalm 19:1-4 states,

"The heavens are telling of the glory of El; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words; their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their utterances to the end of the world."

The Psalmist tells us that the Creation reveals God to us continually without words: His care, beauty and provision. God’s Creation also testifies to His Character and power. Psalm 148 states that all of Creation praises and exalts God.

However, there is a difference between all of God’s Creation and His creation of man. While the rest of creation glorifies and praises God by their very existence, man was created in God’s image and thus glorifies Him with His intellect and words. Creation is a dumb, non intelligent, non verbal praise, but man praises God with his words. This means that man is the crown of His Creation, the choir director if you please. Therefore the whole thrust and teaching of Genesis one on Creation climaxes with the creation of man.

Creation is also so designed to draw us to God our Creator. Paul brings this out in Romans 1:20 when He states,

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."

Here Paul tells us that there is no such thing as an atheist because God has clearly revealed His existence through what has been made. That is what this Chapter is all about, the revelation of God our Creator through Creation. God’s end intent is that His creation would lead us to desire to know Him and have a relationship with Him. The best way we can glorify God is by coming to know Him, to then seek His will and then carry out that will through our lives. Paul wrote in Ephesians 2:10, "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." Jesus talking about His own humanity and purpose on earth in John 17:1 & 4 stated,

"Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You. . . . I glorified You on the earth, having accomplished the work which You have given Me to do."

In creation God did three things: He set forth to accomplish something He designed to do. Because of sin, the creation is not what God intended. For this reason the Book of Revelation reveals to us that God will create a new heavens and a new earth (Rev 21:1). Peter tells us that righteousness will rule over this new creation. Peter wrote, "But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells" (2 Peter 3:13). Among other things it means that there will be no sin or death in the new creation.

"And He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any death; there shall no longer be any mourning, or crying or pain; the first things have passed away." (Rev 21:4)

Secondly, Creation reveals God to us. It tells us who He is and what He has done. Third, He created us to have a relationship with Him and to know Him personally.

God’s Creation also involves our accepting His sacrifice of Himself for us on the cross. God is ultimately glorified through His redemption of man through the God-Man Jesus Christ on the cross now and throughout eternity.

The primary evidence of a Creator of the Universe is the fact that the universe is running down; that is, the energy that it is expending is not retractable. Once all the suns of the universe have expended their energy, the universe will experience heat death. This is known as the 1st and 2nd laws of Thermodynamics.^393/152 The first law is the law of conservation of energy. This law states that the amount of energy in the universe is a constant. Energy may be transformed from one form into another and energy may be transformed into matter and matter into energy, but the total quantity remains constant—energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

The second law relates the usability of that energy to do work. This law was first understood through the study of the energy consumed and the work produced by heat engines. As these engines were used to perform work, without exception some energy became unavailable for further work. In other words, energy can never be 100 percent converted into work. Later it was discovered that this second law of thermodynamics applied to the construction and maintenance of complex systems. All organized complex systems, from molecules to man made machines, in time become more random and disorderly, not more orderly, and eventually break down—death, decay, dust. To maintain these systems requires expenditure of energy and as this energy is consumed to perform work, some of the energy becomes no longer available and thus the system eventually runs down and deteriorates. This also applies to the transmission and storage of information. In time information becomes lost or garbled. This is called informational thermodynamics.

All around us every day we see the laws of thermodynamics in operation: every time we have to go out and buy new clothes, new cars, replace computer parts, see a love one die. Observation of life shows us clearly that things do not move from less complex to more complex spontaneously, but rather require lots of energy to produce the complex machines and more energy to maintain the order and workable complexity.

Evolutionary Scientists will try to tell you that the universe and life as we know it came about spontaneously. Laying belief in Creation aside, this is a demonstrable scientific impossibility as we will clearly show under the heading in this chapter "Miller’s Spark Chamber" and under "DNA & Information"

Scientists like Carl Sagan and Isaac Asimov have tried to get around the laws of thermodynamics by postulating the idea that the universe is an oscillating universe meaning that the universe expands then collapses upon itself and then expands again repeatedly through time. This however still does not answer the question of how the Universe started in the first place because each time the universe would expand and collapse it would expend energy that is not retrievable, so eventually it would still end up in heat death. Also, it is now known that there is far too little mass to stop expansion and allow cycling in the first place, and no known mechanism would allow a bounce back after a hypothetical "big crunch". The only answer is that something or someone placed the energy in the universe we see. "In-the-beginning God created the heavens and the-earth" (Genesis 1:1).

The Lord said to Abraham, "‘Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.’ And He said to him, ‘So shall your descendants be’" (Genesis 15:5). The unaided human eye can see a little over a 1,000 stars. With a pair of binoculars man can see over 3,300 stars. Up until 1915 astronomers believed that our galaxy composed the entire universe. In 1925 the astronomer Edwin Hubble used his new one-hundred-inch mirror telescope on Mount Wilson to discover whole galaxies of stars that were as numerous as the stars in our Milky Way Galaxy. Recently, due to the Hubble Telescope we have discovered a universe five times larger than recently thought and Astronomers are now aware of more than fifty billion galaxies with each containing more than two hundred million stars. The Psalmist David wrote,

"By the Word-of-Yehovah the heavens were made, and by the breath of His mouth all their host. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast" (Psalm 33:6,9).
