It is shown that a universe with a time-varying gravitational ''constant'' G necessarily implies creation if the rest mass of matter particles is constant. From Einstein's field equations, the conditions for energymomentum propagation are drawn, from which matter and photon propagation equations are derived. It is found that at an age t=10/sup -40/t/sub 0/ of the order light takes to travel a proton size, Planck's units become of the order of the proton's mass, size and time. Hence, matter particles at this age are quantum black holes. Evaporation of these quantum black holes at this age gives a background blackbody radiation that, red shifted to present time, gives the present cosmic microwave background. A cosmological model of the Friedmann type is constructed. The red shift versus distance relation is derived taking creation into account. The three results for the age of the universe, i.e. radioactive decay, Hubble's constant, and stellar evolution are brought together in this creation model. The matter-dominated era occurs for t greater than 7.6 x 10/sup -3/t/sub 0/ while the radiation-dominated era occurs for 7.6 x 10/sup -3/t/sub 0/ greater than t greater than 10/sup -40/t/sub 0/. The origin of the universe is placed at this last limit, which is Planck's time at the corresponding G, consisting of quantum black holes at a temperature approximately equal to 3 x 10/sup 11/K.
