In the Beginning God

IN THE BEGINNING GOD

September 11, 2014

Moses said of the CREATOR:

“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

I like David’s description on how GOD created the worlds and all that is within them when he said:  By the WORD of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.  For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.” Psalm 33:6, 7 and 9

Yea CHRIST JESUS was the WORD of GOD by whom GOD created the worlds.  Hebrews 1:3

And the blessed HOLY GHOST is the Breath of His Mouth. For on the day of JESUS’ Resurrection John said:  And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:”  John 20:22 

Therefore, when FATHER GOD said let there be…His WORD, CHRIST JESUS, and His SPIRIT the blessed HOLY SPIRIT, moved swiftly and in unison and created all things visible and invisible. 

Now pay close attention to this: GOD created the earth on the first Day of Creation.  But said Moses: He created the sun, moon, stars and planets on day four.  Doesn’t that set at naught: “The Big Bang Theory?” 

Solomon got it right when he said: The LORD hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” Eccles. 3:11

On the radio call-in program “Cross Talk” a good man called and said:  “The scientists of our day are correct on their calculation of “The Big Bang Theory.”  But he said their timing is off.  Then he quoted where the Apostle Peter said:  “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:10  (Isn’t that great?)

The Holy Godhead was also the co-creators of man.   On the Sixth day of Creation GOD said: “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” Genesis 1:26-27

You know what? When GOD said let us make man in our image, He made Adam in the image wherein JESUS should come later.   For Paul said concerning the creation of Adam: “who is the figure of him that was to come.” Romans 5:14-b  

May GOD add His blessing.  Amen!

CREATION, AND NOT THE EVOLUTIONARY THEORY

April 19, 2010 

Moses wrote: “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Genesis 1:1

Why did God create the heaven and the earth?   John said of the creator: “… For thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” Revelation 4:11

And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.” Genesis 1:16

Notice that Moses wasn’t long winded; he only used five words to describe the vastness of space and its indwelling hosts for He said: “He made the stars also.”

How did God create them?   The Psalmist said:  “Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created.”  Psalms 104:30  That Spirit was His Son, and the Holy Spirit; for God is one Spirit.   Both the Son of God and The Holy Spirit are understood to be co-creators of Heaven and earth from what saith the scripture.   Christ Jesus was God’s Word and it was His Spirit that moved upon the face of the waters and divided the waters from the waters.  Genesis 1:2

The Hebrew writer said of the Son of God: “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” Hebrews 1:1-3   

The Psalmist sums it up, by saying: “By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.”

Psalms 33:6

Jesus Christ is His Word, and the breath of God is the Holy Ghost.   Remember?   On the day of His Resurrection Jesus breathed the Holy Ghost upon His Apostles?   John commented by saying: “Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.   And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:” John 20:21-22  Therefore, the breath of God is The Holy Ghost.

Listen to this you foolish that believe in the Evolution theory.
The Preacher said: “God hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” Ecclesiastes 3:11

Again saith the preacher: “I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea further; though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.”  Ecclesiastes 8:17

The Psalmist was right on target.   He said: “The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.”  Psalm 33:10

Paul told the Romans in Romans 1:18-23.

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.   For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.  Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.”

I like what the Psalmist had to say on behalf of the Creator.   He insisted: “Let all the earth fear the LORD:  let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.   For he spake and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.   The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.   The counsel of the LORD standeth forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.”   Psalms 33:8-11 

May the God of all of creation be praised as we enjoy the beautiful things that He has made.

Amen!
