For he spake, and it was done; Psalm 33:9
"Can we definitively know the global structure of spacetime?
Stephen Hawking claimed that the existence of gravitation implies that the universe came into existence from nothing—absolutely nothing.
--The Creator, who has existed eternally, was the source of creation out of nothing.
However that could not have involved standard physics, or some as-yet-undiscovered quantum physics or some description of the alleged big bang singularity.

Stephen Hawking claimed that the existence of gravitation implies that the universe came into existence from nothing—absolutely nothing.
“‘Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing’, he writes. ‘Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist.’”--The universe did not create itself out of nothing, despite Hawking’s faith claim.
--The Creator, who has existed eternally, was the source of creation out of nothing.

In the realm of known physics, matter does not come into existence from nothing.
Matter can be formed from energy,
but that is always pre-existing energy in the universe."
