When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
(Job 30:26) KJV
Christ’s sacrificial death on the cross and the darkness immediately after it picture creation in the moments BEFORE God said “let light be,” BEFORE nucleosynthesis, the fabled “Big Bang.”
In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
(1 John 4:10) ESV
Propitiation is the price paid for our redemption. This was Jesus himself. He lived a sinless life and his sacrifice was sufficient to pay for the sins of the whole world.
It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
(Hebrews 9:23) KJV
Here’s another example showing how, theoretically, atomic nuclei can be built by fusing Hydrogen atoms.
This comes directly from mainstream science and it isn’t some kooky religious mumbo-jumbo. It’s worth noting that the popular science (SciPop) paradigm requires conditions for the early stages of the universe (the Big Bang) that are met in the testimony of scripture.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
(Genesis 1:1-2) KJV
The only thing necessary for the “scientific” explanation of nucleosynthesis is a source of hydrogen atoms, and this comes from the molecules of the deep.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light.
(Genesis 1:1-3) KJV
The first major split between Matty’s Paradigm and Creationism is in answering the question: What’s the source or nature of the light that the Lord created on the first day of creation?
