520 _a"Creation out of Nothing" provides a full-fledged exploration of the doctrine of creatio ex nihilo (creation out of nothing) that focuses on biblical, theological, extrabiblical, philosophical, and scientific support for the doctrine.
520 _aThe book begins with a statement about the significance of creatio ex nihilo that clearly defines what is meant (and what is not meant) by the concept. The doctrine is discussed within the context of the Old and New Testaments and extrabiblical material. The book includes discussions of the philosophical issues of creation versus conservation and the finite versus infinite past before addressing the scientific confirmation of creatio ex nihilo.
