Our creation model begins, not with the space-time dimension, but with the Creator Himself. George Ellis, co-author of The Large Scale Structure of Time Space stated, "The construction of nature points to a purposeful designer". Can we identify the God of creation?
We believe we can identify Him both Biblically, and scientifically.
In studying the man-made religions of the world, ancient creation myths, and pagan deities, there are found common tenets that express the characteristics of their gods. These include:
Only one creation concept is unique in not sharing these characteristics, and that is the account of creation as told in the Holy Bible. The God of the Bible is the only God that satisfies man's own observation of what life teaches him. Knowledge shows that the "First Cause of Creation" or "The Creator"

The great philosophic questions of life that have been asked by all cultures are as follows:
Who Am I?
Where Did I Come From?
What Is My Purpose Here?
Where Am I Going?
These can be addressed by the study of the "First Cause of creation"-The Creator Himself. Is it possible that the Creator originally designed the earth to benefit the one He would ultimately create on the final sixth day of the literal week of creation? We say yes, it is possible. This one - MAN - would be created in the image of his Creator, to fulfill His purpose, and to be in charge of the creation. This original creation with its protective firmamental canopy, supporting internal infrastructure, and myriad life forms would be an environment in which man could flourish.
We find the Creator the "First Cause of creation" described in Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God"
