Theories
Scientific discovery has led us to many amazing things, not all of them are intended to show the amazing glory of God the Father. If a mind can manifest amazing theory, can that consciousness lead us back to the divine creation of the universe? After all, it was God who manifested that consciousness in the first place. Below is a study of how physics shows that it is neccesary for something outside of the fabric of Space/Time to put it into existence. This study shows that it cannot happen by itself.
The Universe is in Motion
To me, the fact that the universe is in motion is enough evidence to show that it was placed into existence rather than spontaneously existing all by itself. How does anything exist spontaneously from an absolute vacuum all by itself? If there is only an absolute vacuum, how does anything appear into it if there is nothing to appear into it in the first place? The fabric of space/time itself cannot manifest itself because the first law of thermodynamics won’t allow it. The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, the same is true for matter, gravity and space. The simplest observational fact is that all of those exist. The mystery of them existing while the law says they can’t be created by any physical intervention should be enough to convince any scientist that something had to put them into order because there is law. Unfortunately, it doesn’t so let’s look at the next simple observational fact of the universe. It is in Motion. Everything with mass is in motion from the largest galaxy down to the smallest molecule. Even a stone which seems solid is in motion at the molecular level. What put it into motion? Issac Newton’s third law of motion states for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So, if object A acts a force upon object B, then object B will exert an opposite yet equal force upon object A. If everything in the universe is moving (object B) What put it into motion? (object A) It can’t happen by itself. Object B can’t exert a force upon itself to make itself move. Let’s look at this analogy…
Say you are sitting in a rowboat in the middle of a lake. It’s calm, no wind, the water is perfectly still. You decide you are done for the day and want to go back to shore. How do you get back? Does the boat suddenly move itself? No, you need to start rowing. The action of you rowing the boat causes the reaction of the boat moving forwards. The same law applies to everything in the universe that is in motion, which just happens to be everything. Since everything is in motion something had to have exerted a force upon it to put it into motion. Because the universe is in motion, something outside of our fabric of space/time had to have put it into motion. What is that force? The word of God.
John 1 KJV
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.
The Second Law of Thermodynamics
states that all spontaneous processes in the universe tend towards increasing entropy, which is a measure of disorder or randomness. This means that systems naturally move from a state of order to a state of greater disorder. This law also shows that the universe cannot assemble by itself. If the universe is in a state order but there isn't a law that shows it will progress that way, then it shows that the universe cannot organize itself. This brings up the question, what put the universe into order in the first place? This law, I believe shows that God is neceasary for the universe to exist.
The first law of thermodynamics
is contradiction to the universe. The universe obviously exists or you wouldn't be conscious, you wouldn't have thought or life. The law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, the same is true for matter, gravity and space/time. The universe exists, but you can't add to it or take away from it. Because this is true, the only logical explanation is that something must have put it all together and shaped the law around it. What is that something? In the Beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth. Genesis 1:1
What is the Big Bang Theory?
The Big Bang Theory stands as the most widely accepted explanation for the origin of the universe. According to this theory, the universe began as an infinitely small, hot, and dense point, which rapidly expanded and continued to stretch over 13.7 billion years. This initial period of rapid inflation set the stage for the vast and still-growing cosmos we observe today.
Somehow the most common conclusion amung physists says that out of an absolute vacuum all of the matter, energy, gravity space and time suddenly spontaniously came into existence without an explanation of from where or how. Arguably the greatest moment in the history of anything, happend without anything causing it. No action at all created the biggest reaction is histroy. At one moment before moments existed there was nothing, and then in the moment of the very forst moment there was all of the matter, all of the space, all of the energy and time. Not only is it there by itself but it is also moving by itself.
Something had to cause it to be, there are only 2 options, either the universe created itself, or something or someone created the universe.
Why the universe cannot expand out of a singularity...
To understand why, we need to understand what escape velocity is. Escape velocity is the velocity needed for anything with mass to escape the gravity well of its realtive planitary body. If you were to take a stone and throw it up in the air, as soon as it leaves your hand it will begin to slow down. This is because gravity it consistantly pulling on everything and as upward energy is no longer being applied to the stone, gravity slows it down. The stone will eventually stop moving upwards and will fall back to the earth. The harder you throw the stone, the higher it will go because it takes gravity longer to slow it down. If you realease the stone with enough energy, its velocity will be so large that the gravity of the earth will not be able to slow it enough to pull it back and it will leave the gravity well of the earth. That velocity on earth is roughly 25,000 miles per hour from the surface.
If you took all of the matter and energy in the known universe and combined it into one singularity, its mass produce a relative gravity well so large that it would not be able to expand from itself.
Here is a more detailed explanation, we can solve this with basic math and really big numbers.
Let's say we combined all of the known stars in our universe. (for this example I will use our star as an estimated average because it's impossible to know the mass of every star out there and there are many larger and smaller than out star.) The escape velocity of out star is 1,381,710 miles per hour.
The current estimate for the number of stars in the observable universe is around 2 trillion galaxies, each containing roughly 100 billion to 400 billion stars, leading to a total estimate of around 200 billion trillion stars, according to Little Passports and WorldAtlas.
That's 200 billion trillion stars. That’s a 2 with 23 zeros after it. 200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
If we multiply that number by the estimated escape velocity 1,381,710 mph we would get an estimated overall escape velocity of. (2 X 1,381,710 = 2,763,420 then add 23 zeros to that)
276,342,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 MPH
That's roughly 276 octillion mph. This is just the velocity needed to escape a mass containing all of the stars. this does not include the added mass of all of the planets, asteroids, comets and every other celestial body out there. Einstein's theory of relativity shows us that the universe has a maximum velocity of 670,616,629 miles per hour in a vacuum. The velocity needed to escape from a gravity containing all of the stars in the known universe would be 412 Quintillion times faster than the universe would allow. (276,342,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 ÷ 670,616,629 = 412,071,499,646,633,426,980)
In conclusion, it is impossible for the universe to expand from a singularity. Genesis 1:1 say that in the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth. How? It's says He did it with His Word. His word would explain the necessary action to put everything into motion, it would explain how the fundamental laws were put into place. Dr. Kent Hovind said the creator of a computer isn't running around inside of it changing the numbers on the screen. He is out side of it. The God that created the universe is outside of it and has to be to put it into place and into motion.
The book of John says
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
