The true source of Energy
the kick start origin

Energy can not be created nor destroyed; it can only be transform from one form to another. That century old definition of energy defines the boundary of energy as renewable. So if this is the case then we should not have energy crisis, on the contrary energy crisis is not actually energy crisis per se, but oil crisis, because energy is not actually consumed but only transform from one form to another. Upon close observation, all energy on earth gets its source from what is now called the Big Bang. Although the source energy of the Big Bang itself is not clearly known, its potential energy is very visible on the universe. A number of energies are identified, gravitational energy, nuclear energy to name a few.
But one Book of reference has data on what kind of energy kick started the Big Bang ... The Bible.
The beginning of all life started on the Word "Let there be light" Genesis 1:3
So the Term energy can not be created nor destroyed but can only be transform from one type to another has a debate topic on its own. If its not created then were it came from? This can be the question of who goes first the chicken or the egg?
It is very clear that all energy came from the Big Bang, but unless there's a strong evidence that its not created but only has transform from a source, its origin can only be said that its created.
Albert Einstein gives us a mathematical formula of energy. E is equals mass times the speed of light square. In this theory the foot print of the law of thermodynamics that energy has transformed from one form is very evident. To put it on Einstein perspective, mass is energy and energy is mass. If you have mass you have energy. On my view Einstein formula also included if you have energy you have mass, plain and simple. An alchemist perspective will say to you that you can convert anything to gold. Einstein theory not only suggests you can create gold from anything, but also if you have energy you can create gold, and not only gold but anything you can think of. It's really a glimpse on how God created heaven and earth.
