Creation and the Big Bang Theory compares the biblical Creation accounts in Genesis chapter 1 and other parts of the Bible, particularly Hebrews 11:3, with the scientific theories of the Big Bang Theory and the Theory of Evolution. Between these theories, they claim to have established how it is that there is a Universe with one planet, among countless others, containing abundant plant animal and human life. The Bible, on the other hand, tells us it is only by faith that we will be able to understand how God spoke the Universe into being and created all life upon the Earth. Faith is the key and it is faith which divides the population of the Earth. There is this division, and this book seeks to add substance to the claim of the inerrancy of the Bible, in matters of science as well as these of faith.

Walker K Stewart is a retired Free Church of Scotland minister. After being soundly converted at a Bible study in South Africa, he returned to Scotland to study for the ministry. He studied at the Free Church College in Edinburgh and passed with distinction. He was licensed to preach by the Presbytery of Edinburgh and Perth. He was called by Sleat and Strath Free Church on the Isle of Skye in 1999. Inheriting a run-down church building from the 19th century, with no manse and a handful of worshippers, the Lord singularly blessed his ministry. The congregation grew, a new manse was built, new members joined, and a new, modern church building was erected in 2004. Walker Stewart and his wife retired in 2007.

‘Drawing on a series of articles written regarding the origin of life matters, this book contains a useful compendium of information regarding the central biblical doctrine of Creation and also reviews the development of various scientific challenges to it. The work is written from the perspective of the inerrancy of Scripture, and seeks to harmonize data gained from scientific observation and calculation with the statements of Scripture. The author’s standpoint is the absolute truth of the Christian Scriptures. The facts to which he draws attention, and the points he makes from them, provide a challenging stimulus to further reflection on this key aspect of revelation and how fairly the evidence is assessed by prevailing majority view. Throughout his work, the author displays his desire to address the spiritual and intellectual questions which this theme generates for the discerning Christian reader.’ John L. Mackay,Formerly Professor of Old Testament and Principal Emeritus,
