Transcript

Many Christians believe God used the big bang. But this idea has some big problems.

You see, the big bang is a story to explain the existence of the universe without God. It’s supposedly an explanation of how everything in our universe came about by the natural laws we see around us today. This idea of naturalism is at the core of the big bang.

When Christians say God used the big bang what they’re really doing is taking one part of the secular religion of naturalism, which is really atheism, and trying to add God in. They’re mixing two religions!

Instead of borrowing from a different religion, we need to believe God’s Word.
