Is there any Christian theory to explain the creation of the universe?

Question

Does all Christian theory assume the existence of god and therefore not explain the creation of the universe, merely its change by god? Or is there any Christian theory that starts with nothing and then explains how the universe came into existence including god?

Answer 1

God is by definition the cause; however, there is no consensus among scientists regarding the cosmological details of how this universe was created or even how many universes exist.

In essence, and by definition, God both created Himself from nothing AND is eternal (having neither beginning nor end).

Answer 2

Your subtext is confusing. So I'll go with the bold type. If you say Christian, the Jews will say, that's the Torah. I'll say read Genesis, then look at all the ' discoveries ' since scientists have
' allowed ' for the obvious fact of intelligent design. Scientific American had an article on the construction of the eye from microphotography last year. No way that just happened.

I think all subsequent, rock solid reliable ' discovery ' of how things work just catalogs how it was done. By intelligent creation. Just like it says.

Evollution, or the big bang, to me, seems like expecting an unabridged dictionary to result from an explosion at a print shop.

Answer 3

Yes, God spoke the universe into creation. From nothing God spoke and created everything. Read Genesis chapter 1.

Answer 4

Christian theory starts with God, who always was. He did not begin to exist, He just was. And He created everything else. To quote a t-shirt, "I believe in the big bang theory... God spoke, and BANG, it happened."

Answer 5

No! No theory's what so ever! But we do have fact. It is found in Gen 1:1-2:3.

Answer 6

Christians dont have theory. The believe GOD so they beleive
He created everything.

Answer 7

No, it starts with God. Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God...".

Answer 8

Psa.33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.


Nobody created God. God is eternal without beginning or end. Do I understand this, no.

Heb 7:3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.

The only thing we know is that God acquired wisdom in eternity past.

WISDOM SPEAKING
Pro 8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
Pro 8:24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
Pro 8:25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
Pro 8:26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
Pro 8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
Pro 8:28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
Pro 8:29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
Pro 8:30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
Pro 8:31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.



There are 3 heaven and earth ages, same heaven and earth but different ages.

II Pet.3:5-7 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 7 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.
……………………………………….
THE WORLD THAT THEN WAS
Gen.1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

To that earth age the world that then was, belongs all fossils and remains. Scientific estimates or guesses; universe or heavens 20 billion years old, earth 4.6 billion years old, moon 200 to 300 million years younger than earth, dinosaur extinction 65 million years ago, Ice Age 2.5 million years ago.
………………………………………………………………
BEING OVERFLOWED WITH WATER PERISHED
Gen.1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

AND THE EARTH WAS
The word “was” (hayah) in Hebrew, was not distinguished by the Revisers, that is the verb “to be” from “to become”. The same Hebrew word “hayah” is translated “became” in Gen.2:7.
AND THE EARTH BECAME

WITHOUT FORM H8414 tohu (to'-hoo) From an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), that is, desert; figuratively a worthless thing; adverbially in vain: - confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness.

VOID H922 bohu (bo'-hoo) From an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, that is, (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin: - emptiness, void.
AND THE EARTH BECAME DESOLATE AND EMPTY
Earth was not created that way but became desolate and empty due to Satan’s rebellion. A global overflowing of water, but not Noah’s deluge. Darkness was upon the (face) of the deep, in other words the whole earth.
Into this we can read; dinosaur extinction, destruction of Atlantis, breakup of Gondwana Land, and the Ice Age.
………………………………………………………………………...
BUT THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH WHICH ARE NOW
Gen.1:2 And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Gen.1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

About 63 A.D. Peter writes, the heavens and the earth which are now. The heaven and earth age we are in now, today.
BY THE SAME WORD ARE KEPT IN STORE
RESERVED UNTO FIRE
AGAINST THE DAY OF JUDGMENT
AND PERDITION OF UNGODLY MEN
PERDITION G684 apoleia (ap-o'-li-a) From a presumed derivative of G622; ruin or loss (physical, spiritual or eternal): - damnable (-nation), destruction, die, perdition, X perish, pernicious ways, waste.
Some will perish eternally and not see the third heaven and earth age.
