big bang experiment update

If you read my previous post then here is a link regarding the big bang experiment:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7604293.stm

Now my questions are:
1. How long before this 'thing' creates an earth?
2.When will a cave man pop out of the "thing"? Geico should be standing by and waiting to shoot a commercial.


In all sincerity hear what the scriptures say:

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Gen 1:1

"But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, ... He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures. Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. " Jer. 10:10-14


"By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect." Psa 33:6


"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." John 1:1-5

big bang theory

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 1 Cor. 1:19-25

I read an article earlier today about a group of scientists who are preparing to "recreate" the "big bang theory".

The "big bang theory" as I understand it, is the supposed way our universe came into being. Allegedly, billions of years ago the universe came out of nowhere and began to expand into what we see today; but I digress. Back to the experiment, this experiment is taking place near Geneva, Switzerland about 300 feet underground in a thing (Large Hadron Collider) approximately 18 miles long.

The plan is to run protons around in the 'thing' at the speed of light, these protons will eventually collide with one another and theoretically recreate the earliest stage of the "big bang theory".

It never fails to amaze me to what lengths man will go to disprove God and His creation. The natural man cannot discern the word of God. Man refuses to believe the scripture; "In the beginning God created ...." hence they reject God and His truth so we conclude with a thought from the apostle Paul, "the world by wisdom knew not God."

Green earth?

For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven. Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. They (heaven and earth) continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants. Psa. 119:89-91

Man will reject God and His word and supplant Him and His truth with their own wisdom and "higher cause". While their is nothing wrong with living responsibly in this world by picking up trash or keeping our rivers clean, or using less fuel, etc., the "Save the planet", "green earth" movement reveals that man in principle rejects God. At the heart of this 'movement' is the core belief that man and the earth are the center of all. After all, life is all about us and therefore we should do everything in our power to maintain it for now and in the future, right?

I say this as kindly as I can, this movement is a house of cards built upon a foundation of sand. It is another lie hatched by the father of all lies to deceive people into another "just cause" and draw them away from God.

If I may for a moment reason with you from the scriptures: our text in Psalm 119 says the earth was established by God, that is, He created it, He framed it, He spoke it into existence. In Colossians Paul wrote; "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.




He not only established the earth but it abides, that is, it remains, it stands, it continues to this very day. Our text indicates the heaven and earth are his servants. They will remain and perform until He finishes with them. After all they were created "for him" (Col 1:16b) Man has the idea that the earth was created for him, however, the scriptures teach differently, all of creation (including you and I) are and were created for Him (Rev. 4:11).

Peter confirms for us in his second letter that the heavens and earth are kept and reserved by His word. If God is keeping His earth why are we so frantically trying to 'save' it? I assure you, by the authority of the word of God, it will remain functioning and intact until God is finished with it. The scripture even tells us what He will do with it when He is finished with it, He is going to burn it up by fire in the day of judgement.

"But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. 2 Pet 3:7-14

So, what is man to do? Man should glorify God, you should bow and submit yourself wholeheartedly to Him. You should seek Him and His righteousness. You should repent of your sin and believe the Lord Jesus Christ from this day forward. You should then spend the rest of your life growing in grace and in knowledge of Him for He alone is worthy of all our praise, worship, and efforts.
