1. Universe has constant laws of physics - “I have established the covenant of day and night and the fixed order of heaven and earth” .
2. Universe is expanding - He created the heavens and stretched them out.” and ‘stretching out the heavens like a tent’ - the Hebrew verb form here indicates a continual or ongoing stretching.
3. Universe is decaying - In Romans 8 it’s state that the entire creation has been subjected to the law of decay.
4. Universe had a beginning - “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth”.
What sciences says:
1. Astronomers have look back into time within 200,000 years of the big bang event and have seen no change in the physical laws, and other sciences have not detected any changes.
2. Hubble discovered this shortly after General Relativity published.
3. 2’nd law of thermodynamics (entropy).
4. The Big Bang marks the instant at which the universe began, when space and time came into existence and all the matter in the cosmos started to expand.
What comes in mind here is the law of truly large numbers. Also, it's funny how the verse regarding the Big Bang has been found in ancient Vedas and sumerian scriptures (dating 4000 years back)
If you think logically now. Think about how many thousand scientific facts there are. Is it really impossible that in a book with hundreds and thousands there are some verses that resemble science?
Watch the beginning of this video for a demonstration, it also indirectly shows data manipulation although that was not the intention of the video itself
