The Creation

God's Handiwork Gen 1:1-2:25

The purpose of this section of Genesis is not to give a scientific theory of Creation, but to state the fact that one God created all things.
Genesis records the beginning of everything except God, who was 'in the beginning and He is the –

    Author of Creation
Genesis 1:1 In the. Beginning God
Moses does not attempt to prove the existence of God but begins with that assumption that He is. Instead of the Creation. The Bible asserts the Being of God as a self-evident axiom of truth which requires no proof from man. There is no introduction to enable us to reach the conclusion that there is a God, for God reveals Himself not by human logic but by divine revelation. Though the wonders of creation display the wisdom and power of the Creator they do not of themselves reveal the character and being of God. Infinite conclusions cannot be drawn from finite premises. A God who can be proved is no Good; for the ground of proof is necessary above the thing proved by it.
Genesis chapter 1 describes not so much the greatness of creation as the wisdom and power of the Creator. The Bible is essentially the revelation of God to man, in creation, in history and in redemption. The only explanation of the origin and the process of creation is God.

The more deeply man delves into the mysteries and secrets of creation, the more evident the existence of a Creator becomes. So it is recorded without explanation or argument that ' in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth,' Genesis 1:1.

    Authority in Creation.
Genesis record bears the stamp of sovereignty. God's word is but the expression of His will- He willed and it was done. It may be asked, Why did God will to create ? The new Testament provides the complementary truth that behind the sovereign will there was the Divine love, for God is love. The essential nature of love is to communicate and so in doing to find satisfaction. We may reverently say that creation was a moral necessity, a way by which God could exhibit His love.
Everything in Creation bears the stamp of Divine authority; God created; God moved, God said, God divided, God called.

    Agent in Creation
A careful study of Genesis 1 reveals that there is one God but a plurality of persons. 'In the beginning God (Elohim, plural) created the heavens and the earth' shows an unfamiliar grammatical construction, for the plural, Elohim, is joined to a singular verb, created. Later in Genesis 1:26 'God said let Us make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness.’ How are we to understand these collective pronouns ?
We reject the idea that God and the angels are intended, since man is not said to have been created in the image of angels but in the image of God.
The sevenfold repetition of the phrase, 'And God said demonstrates that the Divine will found expression in the Divine Word, the sole agent in creation. The new Testament reveals that the Word of God was none other than the Son of God.
The earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving on the face of the water, Genesis 1:2.
Though the Hebrew word for ' Spirit', like it’s Greek equivalent signifies 'wind or air', the verb 'brood' indicates that which has life, the Breath of God, converting choas ( without form) into cosmos. The Spirit of God continues to be active throughout the Bible, essential and sovereign in the 'new creation' as cleary taught by the Lord Jesus Himself. John. 3:5,6,8.

    Apex of Creation.
The work of the days was an obvious preparation for the appearance of man. There was light, air, water, herbage, fruit, seasons, fish of the sea, birds of the air and cattle of the field, and man was to have dominion over all Genesis 1:28. Here is the great gulf between man and the beast; he is made in the image of God and as the result of Divine counsel.
Man's body was made from dust, that dust he is and to dust he will return is clearly stated. But man is more than body for, ' the Lord God breathed into his nostril the breath of life and man became a living soul. He has not only life like the animals but is capable of converse with God, of obeying or disobeying the very commands of God.
There was one thing God said 'not good ', that man should be alone and remain a solitary creature.

By
WHAT IS SIN ? Sin means Satanic In Nature. In the beginning, sin existed before the creation of man and other creatures that live on Earth, that is sin only came through man to the world due to man disobedient to the instructions of God concerning the forbidden fruit. Man was created in God likeness (Genesis 1:27), man was created with a well defined purposes and functionalities (Genesis 1:28-31). It was expected of man to carry out the functionalities God assigned to him in accordance to God instructions and rules. The Coming of Sin into the World and the experience of Sin in Human race Man was created without sin, for some divine purposes and in the likeness of God, but was cut off from these purposes and privileges as the result of sin.

The Blood of Christ Jesus

By
The Blood of Jesus Protection Through the Blood of Jesus “When I see the blood, I will pass over you.” –Exodus 12:13 (KJV) In Exodus, after nine devastating plagues, Pharaoh still refused to let God’s people go. So, God sent a final plague—one of judgment—to “smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt” (Exodus 12:12). As sons of Adam, Satan knew the children of Israel had broken covenant with God and were also due judgment. God could protect them, but “not without blood.” They had a covenant relationship with God through Abraham, but they needed to stand in that covenant. They needed to choose the covenant over the curse. So, God instructed them to take the blood of a lamb and paint it on their doorposts. They did, and the angel of death passed them by. Was it really the blood of a lamb that stopped them from being killed? No! It was the blood of the Lamb (Jesus) who was slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8, KJV). The Blood of Jesus answer a question f...

Daniel Chapter 7 Prophecy.

By
THE LITTLE HORN OF DANIEL 7 WE ARE STARTING A NEW STUDY THAT BRINGS MORE LIGHT TO PARTICULAR PARTS OF DANIEL'S PROPHESY.. IN OTHER WORDS WE ARE DIGGING DEEP TO FIND THE SPECIFIC PLAYERS IN THE END TIME BEAST SPOKEN ABOUT IN EZEKIEL, DANIEL AND REVELATION.. WHICH WE PRAY WILL MAKE IT EASIER FOR YOU TO READ THESE BOOK AND UNDERSTAND THE LORD'S WARNING MAY GOD ADD A BLESSING TO THE READING OF HIS WORD... AMEN LET US GET STARTED The Little Horn of Daniel: What is it? Can we accurately identify it? Does history once again prove prophecy authentic? And before even considering what this little horn entails, how does prophecy define a “horn?” We need to know this because the Word states that, "no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpretation." in 2 Peter 1"20. That means I can in no way tell you my opinion of what a prophetic symbol means in prophecy. I must allow the Bible to identify them. By the way, this is an easy way to expose false prophets...
