Hi twinbanj,
Welcome to EvC.
I am one of those literalist who believe in creation by God.
I do not believe in nor do I believe the Bible teaches the universe was created 6k years ago in six days.
I believe it was created in 1 light period as declared in Genesis 1:1.

Isn't it possible for the energy in the theorized big bang, to be a god?
If the big bang happened the energy had to be a God.
Because it was all that ever was, is or ever will be.
God makes that claim in the Bible.
Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
I AM everything that exist.
Acts 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
In God we have our being (existence}
Colossians 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
If you check you will find the Greek preposition translated by is the second meaning with the first being, in.
If you check you will find the Greek verb ‘‘ translated consist the primary meanins is 1) to place together, to set in the same place,to bring or band together.
So this passage says all things are banded together in God.
So my definition of God is, everything that ever was, is or will be.
God Bless,
