From Whence The Big Bang?

Two friends were talking, as friends sometimes do,
About whether God exists, or does not.
One said, "Of course not! We die; we are through!
The grave is the end, where our bodies rot!"
"Without God, there'd be no life; random chance
Could have never formed this earth safe for man.
The Big Bang could not have been happenstance;
What was here before the cosmos began?
God was here; the energy He supplied
Became matter; made the bodies in space;
Only earth is safe for life to abide!
It was planned just for the human race!
God must have done it for some good reason,
Which He will reveal to us in due season!

Matter cannot be unless it is made of energy! Why is it so hard for human reason to accept that an eternal body can be made from a human soul? If matter comes from energy, and returns to energy, why cannot the supernatural come from the natural? Both the natural/supernatural phenomenon and the energy/matter were devised by God.

Albert Einstein first proposed the theory that matter is created from pure energy. The thesis has now been proven and is widely accepted in the scientific world. The basis for the rapidly exploding technology of the past seventy years is owing to Einstein. Scientists have traced the origin of the universe back to a single instant in time 13.7 billion years ago, when a silent but huge burst of energy was released into the void of space. As to what caused the Big Bang, or what was there before it, they are totally stumped! The Bible says God was there. Here's what I believe: It was His energy that was released---His spoken command! It was programmed from the beginning with the entire plan of development, creation of earth, and the details of the lives lived by every man, plant, and animal that ever lived.

Georges Lemaitre proposed the theory leading to Big Bang discoveries in 1927, followed by Edwin Hubbell's finding that all galaxies are speeding away from each other at ever-increasing speeds, in 1929. This means that the original "explosion" of energy is still exploding; we're racing away from ground zero as well as everything else!

Einstein was a Jew who didn't believe specifically in God, but he did believe in a "superior spirit" that allowed man to discover bits and pieces of the world. I believe that spirit to be God. He created all this just so He could create man and prepare a safe place to exist---for a time. He must consider us to be very special. Why do so many of us ignore Him?
