Trying to be a writer

So I'm not sure if alot of people know but I am attempting to be a writer. And my first book is called Salvation: The Beginning. As I am a massive Sci-fi and I do love post-apocalyptic stuff and so I wrote a book that is set in the future, alot of it is based on themes from the bible as I am a Christian however the book is not the most friendliest book in the world it is surrounded by violence. But hey here is a draft of the first part of the first chapter, The Cleansing:

A world stands…
A world stands in ruins…
The stench of sulfur stains the air, the fires burns higher then buildings, twelve thousand years ended in three hours, everything started and finished in vain now only the destroyed dreams and screams of methane burning remain, only burned destroyed memories are to be seen in a city once full of life and ambition, now the statues of people who once were…
No car horns blowing…
No sounds of construction…
No sounds of the children playing.
Twenty twelve a year of dreams come true…
A year of sport…
A year of records…
All broken, from the dust it came so to dust it shall all return. As with the people from the dust we came so to the dust we will all return…
One day.
Twenty sixth of December boxing day, the rush and excitement had started to calm down, but not in the military bases, presidents being rushed away into bunkers, people of great worth thrown into underground bunkers…
The Generals give the orders… So starts the cleansing of the world… So starts the destruction of people,
Families…
Pets…
Species…
Villages…
Towns…
Cities…
Countries…
Continents...
The missiles launch… A thousand megatons EXPLODE, the atmosphere cries out in pain from mass radiation sickness and blinded by the light and its own dust, a fire ball fifty miles high incinerates the clouds, even the power of the sun cannot be seen, a million souls gone in seconds others in cased in dust, they became their own graves, some shopping, some playing, others just living their lives… Now left for eternity, cars thrown, building fall, pavements crumble, the city melts under the intensity of this million degree monster named Zeus or the B100 Nuclear bomb.
The world cries as all its cities burn, the earth cries as it body is destroyed by fire and scared by craters miles wide, it’s inside spill out from the blasts and its face shakes and cracks. A loving God cries out as His creation destroys itself for no reason,
Angels weep for those not saved… believers called home…
Others face the fire again.
The devastation lasts two weeks, seas evaporate, deserts become glass, mountains fall, ash rains down covering every surface, the earth dies…
SILENCE befalls the once so vibrant land now only silence.
So the silence remains.
