Heavens Declare Glory of God:
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky proclaims the work of His hands.
Psalm 19:1
Can you fasten the chains of the Pleiades or loosen the belt of Orion?
Can you bring out the constellations in their season and lead the Bear and her cubs?
Do you know the laws of heaven? Can you impose its authority on earth?
Job 38:31-33
Hallelujah! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.
Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His hosts.
Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars.
Praise Him, highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens.
Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He commanded, and they were created.
He set them in position forever and ever; He gave an order that will never pass away.
Psalm 148:1-6
Is the universe the end result of some Cosmic Big Bang accident? Are the constellations arranged randomly as a result of this Big Bang? The Bible tells us a different story. The heavens were created by God and they reveal His handiwork. New evidence now appears to confirm this. As John Hartnett of CMI writes:
The very process by which the galaxies were created on Day 4 of Creation Week may be visible in these observations. This is potentially the most exciting discovery for creationist cosmology since Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter, which began the re-emergence of reason over dogma.
Excerpt:
The observational evidence, documented and described by Halton Arp, provides a starkly different story about the location and distribution of galaxies and quasi-galactic objects (including quasars) in the universe from what is promoted by big bang cosmologists and the popular press. Instead of uniform randomness on a large scale, it seems that the matter in the universe is arranged in enormous spiral and quasi-spiral structures that are repeated on many scales in a grand hierarchy. Arp’s evidence for galaxy formation by ejection of quasars from the centres of active galactic nuclei is extremely compelling. His photographs of galaxies may well be revealing direct visual evidence of the creative hand of God during Day 4 of Creation Week. In fact, his astronomical observations may well be the most significant for creationist cosmology since Galileo….keep reading
