Rather than point to gravity, antigravity, dark energy, etc., as the "invisible glue" of the Universe, we simply need to acknowledge the existence of the One who made all things out of nothing at all, merely by His Divine Word and Will, and for His own pleasure no less. The Bible tells us that He merely spoke the word, and it was done. As I have mentioned before, there is nothing wrong with being curious. It is a part of our human nature. In fact, I view it as a wonderful thing, because curiosity motivates us to study, conduct research, learn and grow. In my particular case, the many articles and series which I have written over the years, are in large part a result of my own personal curiosity and desire to understand the ways of God and things that pertain to the Scriptures. My personal curiosity has motivated me to investigate and study a wide variety of topics and issues, in order to hopefully arrive at the truth, which I now gladly share with you, my readers. At the same time, we must also demonstrate humility, and recognize that there are certain things in this life, and in the Universe, which we simply are not meant to understand, at least not for the time being. In fact, some things are simply beyond our capability to understand with our human minds, and other things, God has purposely hidden from us, for His own reasons. Thus, we find verses in the Holy Bible such as the following: "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."- Isaiah 55:8-9, KJV "Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number."- Job 9:10, KJV "O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!" - Romans 11:33, KJV Concerning the notion of an accelerated expansion of our Universe, the writer of the article in question theorizes that if this acceleration continues at its current pace, or at an even faster rate of speed, billions of years from now, the inhabitants of the planet Earth may look up into the night sky and only find utter darkness, because other stars and galaxies will have moved so far away from our region of the Universe, that even their light won't be able to travel back to us. Upon reading this, it occurred to me that even the concept of the Universe rapidly expanding may possibly be hinted at by the following verses that are found in the Book of Revelation: "And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them." -Revelation 20:11, KJV "And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea."-Revelation 21:1, KJV So, what we see then, is that once again, modern science may only be verifying what the Bible has told us for almost two thousand years now. God's Word clearly informs us that not only does the Lord have intentions to dispose of the current Earth and heavens, but He also intends to create a new Earth and new heavens. God is in fact going to make all things new as we see by this verse: "And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful." -Revelation 21:5, KJV It is interesting to note that the previous verse from the Book of Revelation states that "the earth and the heaven fled away". The verb "flee" suggests that they will move away with haste, and that is exactly what astronomers are now suggesting when they say that galaxies are moving away at an accelerated pace. So we must wonder: Why would entire galaxies move away from us at an accelerated pace? While we can simply accept man's wisdom, and his theoretical explanations of antigravity and dark energy, is it possible that God, who sees past, present and future as one, has foreordained these events, because He has planned some great event which will occur in our corner of the Universe, which will so astound those who behold it, that it will leave them utterly speechless? Is it possible that God is clearing the region, and preparing a place for what we might refer to as Big Bang II when He will make all things new? A profound question indeed, and one which I obviously cannot answer. In the meantime, and until that day arrives, each time that you look up into the night sky and behold the beauty of the heavens, please remember the following verse, and give honor to whom honor is truly due: "[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.] The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork."Psalms 19:1, KJV True indeed! I personally cannot help but marvel when I look at the beauty of the night sky. It is a constant reminder of our Heavenly Father, and the great Power that He possesses. With these thoughts, I will bring this article to a close. I trust that you have enjoyed it, and that you have blessed by it in some way. And remember; there is nothing like God's Word; absolutely nothing! Study it, and you will grow wise beyond your years. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" /></blockquote>
