Creation
Colossians 1:16-17 "All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist."
IN THE BEGINNING:
1. The Universe seems to originate from a single point (approx one-trillionth the size of the period that ends this sentence).
2. From this point, an expansion of the Universe seems to continue.
3. Photons first appeared converting its energy into matter-antimatter particle pairs, annihilate itself, and then back to its photon state.
4. Today we view the universe as follows:
- 68,2% Dark Energy (what drives the accelerated expansion of the universe) - expanding faster than the speed of light
- 26,8% Dark Matter (its has a gravitational effect holding galaxies together)
- 5% Ordinary Matter (stars, planets & everything that we see around us)
The alternative to the above theory (4) is that General Relativity is wrong to the scale of Galaxies and everything bigger.
The universe is however larger than the observable universe as it expans faster than the speed of light.
