"...and in Him all things hold together."
So scientists had to go looking for an explanation of why the nucleus of an atom doesn't fly apart and concluded that the "strong force" is responsible for it. The Bible addressed the issue way before scientists even thought of it. My question is "How did the ancients know that things needed to be held together?" IOW, what ever gave them the concept that everything needed to be held together? I don't believe that there was anything in their experience that would have led them to that concept or conclusion.
Scientists can deride the Bible all they want about it being inaccurate and not a science textbook as if that cuts into it's credibility; but when I see things like that along with the correlation between the Creation account and what science teaches about the beginnings of the universe, I don't think the Bible gets enough credit.
