LESSONS FROM THE VERY FIRST VERSE!

“In the Beginning” Time Time as we know it had a beginning (Titus 1:2) One of the dimensions of our universe May only move forward in but identified in three ways: –Past (remember) –Present (experience, live in) –Future (anticipate, fear, hope)

“God” NOT “in the beginning God was created” –God existed before the beginning (time) “God’ (Heb. Elohim) teaches a plurality of persons in God –The Triune God –John 17:5; 20:17; Heb. 1:8, 9; Matt. 3:17; Heb. 1:1, 2; Jn. 5:23; Gen. 1:2; Acts 5:3, 4 Father Son Holy Spirit

“Created” Tells of the original energy source for the creation—the infinite power of God! Hebrew “bara” found three times (Gen. 1:1, 21, 27) –Signifies the creation of something which previously did not exist Material substance (1:1) Living substance (1:21) Imperishable substance (1:27)

“The Heavens” Space Not nothingness One of the dimensions of our universe –Observed in three dimensions Idea of stretching out the heavens (Is. 40:22)

Matter The way the universe functions may serve as a signature from the Creator –Hebrews 1:3 –Romans 1:18-20 “And The Earth” How Much energy would be released if every atom were split?

The Answer of “God!” Solves the riddle as to “how” and “why” the universe came into existence Nature cries out that there was a beginning –Nature alone does not answer how the beginning began—resulting in endless speculation –Bible answers that the beginning began with an eternal God

What is the Relationship Between God and the Dimensions of Nature?

Time As creator of time, God is over and outside of it –“Behold, God is great, and we do not know Him; Nor can the number of His years be discovered” (Job 36:26) –2 Peter 3:8

Space Since God created space, He can know what happens everywhere in the universe –“‘Can anyone hide himself in secret places, So I shall not see him?’ says the LORD; ‘Do I not fill heaven and earth?’ says the LORD’” (Jer. 23:24).

Matter God’s nature is superior to matter “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth” (Jn. 4:24) Seen in the prohibition to make images (Deut. 4:15ff) Seen in the insufficiency of dwelling in a temple made with hands (Acts 17:24)

While the universe and everything in it needed a beginning, God does not Asking “Who created God” would be as silly as asking “Who created the Creator?” Only the answer of a Creator-God can solve the riddle as to “how” and “why” the universe exists
