    Okay, I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt, but as usual with people who believe 'Jesus is God'. No evidence...Here are the scriptures you quoted from the NIV...

    Gen. 19:24 "Then the LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah - from the LORD out of the heavens."

    John 17:12 "While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has be lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled?"

    Mal. 3:1 "See, I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messeger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the LORD Almighty.

    If you think these say Jehovah is the Christ, YOU are really stretching it.

    All things were made by Him and without Him nothing was made........(John 1:3...)
    Thus said Jehovah, thy redeemer, And thy framer from the womb: `I [am] Jehovah, doing all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself, Spreading out the earth -- who [is] with Me? (Isaiah 44:24)

    Genesis 5: 1,2-- This is the book of Adam's generations. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him. Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

    Big bang, evolution. Is that what you're getting at? That takes a lot more faith to believe in than believing in God as the intelligent creator.

    Consider this...

    I came from a speck of dust that exploded to create an infinate universe in which the earth resides and rotates around the sun at a perfect speed, rotation and distance so that we are neither squished by the force of gravity, nor shot out into space by a lack of the same. Neither are we burnt to a crisp or frozen to death by the sun. The moon revolves around the earth in it's proper place and creates the tide on the waters. Everything is in perfect ballance and if altered an unimaginably small amount, would cease to exist. Some sludge happened to form in the waters on earth of which all the vast creatures of sea, land and air owe their existence. I'm not only related to a monkey, but a frog, worm, bird, fish, and dung beetle. The atmosphere, which came from nothing protects us from harmful UV rays (thankfully). The rain comes in season to feed the plants and trees of which apparently, I am also related to since I came from the same pile of slime so many billions of years ago.

    With this in mind, the Big Bang happens to be the only explosion I know of that people believe created something out of nothing instead of making nothing out of something. The day you take a stick of dynamite, blow a tree up and that tree turns into a dog I'll believe it. Funny though, if I put a watch in front of you and asked the question, "did this watch have an intelligent creator or did it just happen?", you'd surely agree that it had an intelligent creator. It boggles my mind that the same person could potentially claim that the world in which they live in was not created by an intelligent creator, but "just happened". Wow, that takes faith!

    It's interesting to read all of those replies. Elijah had the same problems too...it's called sitting on the fence.........."And Elijah came unto all the people, How long are you between two opinions?. If the Lord be God, follow Him.But if Baal, follow him. And the people answered him not a word." 1Kings 18:21.....

    PEACE

    Actually the Big Bang was a little bit more like Pandora's box. He opened it up and all this squiggly stuff started spewing out. He tried to keep it in but it just kept coming. The only downside being an errant pubic hair stuck in a tooth...

    ...and thus String Theory was born...
