Biblical Redemption/Atonement — Part One by Dave Hunt

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy, the stuff of which the universe is made, can neither be created nor destroyed. Two conclusions follow:1. The total energy in the universe remains constant, and2. Energy must be self-existent and eternal—exactly what the Bible says about God.Is science promoting energy as “God”?The second law of thermodynamics states that while total energy remains constant, usable energy and order continually decrease as entropy increases. Common sense tells us that all fires eventually burn out. Neither our sun nor the other stars could have been burning forever. There must have been a time when neither stars nor the energy of which they consist existed. Clearly, the universe had a beginning, as the Bible declares: “In the beginning...” (Genesis 1:1).
