AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God (Elohim) created [by forming from nothing] the heavens and the earth. [Heb 11:3] |
Subject: God's beginning |
Bible Note: First I would like to put God in his proper place. As a reader whom is the auther should be first, there is none before him. God, in the beginning created the heaven and(also) the earth. Said this way there was nothing before him. God is the prime mover of all thing's posible. Now in Gen 1:2 this verse should be takin in it's entiready, it's great in its simplisity. He's giving us a picture of what he see's. What do you see, if you move over water? Right, yourself. Now he said it was dark. What would you see? Right, nothing. Proof of this is in the next verse. Gen 1:3 and 1:4 it does not say he saw himself but, he did see the light he created. God did not number his creations from first to last in order. There where thing's created before light but, nothing after the sixth day. We must note what God say's and egually what he doesn't say. He didn't say first I created this or that. We need to study to know what came first and in what order. The word does tell us, it interprets itself. Leaving no self interpritation. |
