Bible Note: Hi Lorna GEN.1:1-2 Right from the opening two verses of the bible we have the Godhead mentioned , God the father , who through his son as seen in Jn.1:3 made the heaven and the earth , and the Spirit of God which is of course the Holy Spirit. The three words form , void and darkness are words used to describe what the earth looked like before God moved upon the face of the waters. Now lets take these two verses and apply them to us. We were made from the dust of the earth , we to were in darkness full of confusion and empty until God the father sent his son Jesus Christ to die for us and inpart the Holy Spirit in us. Now God always works by degrees he could have made the heaven and the earth all at once but he didn’t , he used six days for his creation. This shows us that nothing or no one was ever made perfect all at once for God never works that way , even Jesus Christ was not perfected until he died on the Cross. We as children of God grow by degrees just as Jesus did for he learned as we do by the trials we go through. |
