    No. Even that which are called miracles come from God.

    Source(s): The holy spirit My spirit confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus. I confess that Jesus is the Son of God. I believe that Jesus is the Christ. The King James Version bible is scripture in English.

    I don't know.

    But given that the sum total

    of all the matter and energy

    in the universe seems to add up to

    just about zero,

    maybe everything

    is just a very fancy nothing.

    Quantum physics allows for nothing

    to become something,

    that can do some interesting things

    and then go back to being nothing.

    Perhaps the entire universe

    is an example of this sort of thing

    on a very rare and freakishly large scale

    or is inside a black hole

    where time and space are . . .

    strange.

    Science explains the big bang was not from nothing but from a singularity that was all the matter and energy in the universe compressed into a single point that then expanded rapidly!!

    So in answer to your question it was always here!!

    But why are Christians always claiming the big bang came from nothing? Are they that ignorant? Did they sleep through school or is it that they know the truth but think they can twist it because everyone is gullible?!

    Now you try explaining where god got nothing from how he is supposed to have then produced everything from nothing!

    Where did the raw material of the Universe come from?

    WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God is the Source of infinite power, or energy. (Job 37:23)

    This is significant, because scientists have

    learned that energy can be converted into matter. The Bible says that God himself is the Source of the "vast dynamic energy" that produced the universe. (Isaiah 40:26)

    God promises to use his power to sustain his creation, for the Bible says regarding the sun, moon, and stars: "God keeps them established for ever and ever."Psalm 148:3-6.

    WHY IT MATTERS The astronomer Allan Sandage once said: "Science cannot answer the deepest questions. As soon as you ask is there something instead of nothing, you have gone beyond science."

    Not only does the Bible explain creation in a

    way that harmonizes with science but it also answers questions that science cannot-such as, What is God's purpose for the earth and for mankind?

    Probably not, because it is starting to look like the concept of nothing existing is not realistic in the first place. So basically there was never nothing, so something could not have come from it.

    Look at air. Can something come out of nothing from the past like a time machine? No. Put a rock down. Watch it for hours. Did it do something? Did it get up and walk away? No. Something cannot come from nothing. You have to put work to it for it to come from nothing. You see a blank test? You have to write your answers down yourself. The same logic goes to everything.

    Don't know, but both sides of the controversy is claiming something came from nothing but the religious side is the only ones claiming they "know" something can't come from nothing (except god for some reason).

    Your god seems to have come from nothing and then created a universe from nothing, so i guess so.

    Well, I've seen a lot of politicians pull crazy conspiracies out of their azzes. Does that count?

    Nope. Which kind of shoots a hole in the claims of creationists.

    The singularity which expanded in the Big Bang, of course, was something, so everything in the universe came from something.
