Discuss Genesis 1 Page 170

Hello! You are right Charles, God did not create the earth without form, void, and in darkness, with water everwhere. God created the accorded to Isa 45:18,19. There was an earth age before the age, in which God created Adam and Eve. Its called the first earth age. Adam and Eve was created in the second earth age.

For comment about light. It is not redundant. The first light is Jesus (the light of the world). The dark is Satan. Realize verse 2, God did not create the earth without and void, it became that from the first earth age from Satan and the over throw. In Revelation 22.5 "and there shall be no light there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the LORD God giveth them light: and they shall rein for ever and ever". You should check out these things, and rightly divide the word of God.

It's God's hand-writing so it's perfect

So let me get the order straight here: Day 1 god created light. A few days later two lights were created, one for day and one for night. Doesn't this show that the authors of this book didn't have a clue about the universe?

Sometimes in life you hope for the chance to mend a broken heart. Get a chance to say unspoken words that you wish you could have said. As life goes on you change, you grow. You become the person you always wanted to be and just maybe what someone else needed you to be but at the time you weren't. And maybe, just maybe if they knew that you were that person now would the great love you once shared, the greatest of loves find away together again. And you hope, you pray knowing that you were that persons greatest love. Could they come back to you if they knew that you changed, you were now the person they needed you to be back then. And you wonder if your ever get that chance because not only time has gone by but they are stuck,unhappy with someone that they settled for because you messed up. You hope they could have the strength to leave their unhappy life and leave someone they know they really don't love,they settled for them because of the heart you brought them. And you pray for answers and hope.

Even though the spelling of some words are different they are the same words. There has not been a change to these words. I have no problem with these words. Genesis 1:1-5 tells us plainly that this was the first day of Creation and there was no "gap" between verses 1 and 2 of billion of years. All 31 verses of Genesis Chapter 1 are connected by "and". "And" is a conjunction use to connect sentences together. Genesis 1:1-31 is plainly telling us about the 6 24-hour days of Creation. I trully love God's Word.

Genesis 1 really proves to us that the Word of God is more important that the very thing it produces because without the Word nothing could have existed.

Glory be to God in whose word we should have faith before we see the results. Who noticed how God created Light before He gave us the Sun in order for our human minds to understand light? So there was three days in which there was light without a sun to explain it!!!

God is good all the time.

All praises and thanksgiving to the most high Lord. I worship your name from everlasting to everlasting you are my God and my creator. doubt not the ways of God your Lord for he is worthy to be praise. People of the earth here this word,if a man will take any word out of the word of God he will be dead but if you will add to it you will add more years to your life.

IN GEN 1:3 GOD SAID," LET THERE BE LIGHT....
AND IN GEN 1:14 GOD SAID, LET THERE BE LIGHT..."
ISNT THIS REDUNDANCY ? OR LIGHT IN VERSE 3 IS A DIFFERENT LIGHT IN VERSE 14...ARE THEY BOTH THE SAME ALSO IN HEBREW TRANSLATION ? FOR IF HE ALREADY MADE LIGHT IN VERSE 3 WHY DO IT AGAIN IN VERSE 14 ?.

Gen 1:31...how interesting that God after every day is only interested in the morning and the evening this is indicative of the times of his manifestation he is a God of light "look for God while he can be found,and call him while he is near us" time is running out...

After the fourth day time started, 24hrs per day until today;So the six day is the culmination of the greatest demonstration of love man kind has ever seen,God is reaching down and shows his desire to have fellowship with his creation in a place he called "very good indeed".

CLEARLY GEN 1:4 TALKS ABOUT THE ETERNAL KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, "SAW" MEANS HE "KNEW" IN ADVANCE...GOD REVEALS HIMSELF INTO THE EARTHLY ROUND FOR THE FIRST TIME,AND HIS LIGHT BEFORE HIM DIVIDED THE PLANET IN TWO KINGDOMS "GOOD"OR LIGHT FROM "DARKNESS"OR EVIL..

"... and every winged fowl after its kind..."


So, the insoluble question which comes first, the chicken or the egg, follow the lead in the Bible, it's the chicken.

That is also what any engineer will do, first make the chicken with an egg inside, which chicken will lay the egg and hatch it at the same time protecting it while hatching it.

If an engineer contrives the egg first, how is it going to survive without a chicken to protect it?

See, the Lord is pretty smart, he made the chicken first with an egg already inside; what a terrific package, only the Lord could and did do that.

All praise to the Lord!

1:26-28 explains that God created humans before Adam and Eve were created. The aforemention were not mentioned up until chapter 2.

I found the answer in Wikipedia:

Two stories or one?

Until the latter half of the 19th century Genesis 1 and 2 were seen as one continuous, uniform story with Genesis 1:1–2:6 outlining the world's origin, and 2:7–2:25[19] carefully painting a more detailed picture of the creation of humanity. Modern scholarship, citing (1) the use of two different names for God, (2) two different emphases (physical vs. moral issues), and (3) a different order of creation (plants before humans vs. plants after humans), believes that these are two distinct scriptures written many years apart by two different sources, chapter 1 by the Priestly source and chapter 2 by the Jahwist, with the bridge the work of a "redactor", or editor

I thing Genesis is one of the must importantist
chapter in the bible in the begining.

I'm studying Genesis with Dr. J. Vernon McGee's "Thru The Bible" 5 year program. The program has been very helpful to me in studying Genesis.

WAS THERE SOMEONE HERE BEFORE ADAM AND EVE,OR SOME BEINGS.

Genesis is powerful it shows the power of God he spoke just spoke everything into exsistant,and it shows how the creation of man and women was created.

In the beginning God created heaven and earth. What was God doing before he created the heaven and earth and what was the next day before he created this.

This chapter shows God's absolute power. And when he calls us his own, his children! Can you imagine being a child of some one more powerful than anything that has ever existed and will ever exist? That is unexplicable.

why is God using such terms as us,our and such? Sounds like he was not alone??

I Believe that this is were life started because darkness was a type of death and the spirit of god moved on the face of the water is he put life in the world when he breath on it.

genesis 1 verse 28 God gave a man a full package of blessings,so that he can be fruitful meaning that he can have abundance, multiply- a person can expand through diversification in each and every area of life to the extend of replenishing all the God given resources, the power of prevailing against each and every hindrance on earth that is the power to subdue aaaand having dominion over all the resources given by God.

replenish mean to redo over again.

Jesus in the flesh lived and died on the cross 2000 plus years ago. You have a flesh body and a spirit body inside as Paul through the Word says. Jesus also has a Spirit. His is Father,Son,Holy Spirit. His image was talking to ours,His children. He gave us that name and we believe in all He is and has done and that name Jesus opens up the way so we can speak to Him as His children.

In 2 Peter 3:5 pick up on the fact "were of old". And in verse 6 "the earth that was" being sunk in water, "Perished" and then in vs. 7 the fact Peter is speaking of the earth that he is standing on at that moment, this earth is kept in store for fire,judgement, death for ungodly men. So we see one earth, the world that was sunk in water and saved. Then the fallen angels left their first estate "heaven" satans bunch in Gen. 6 and keep trying to mess up the Plan of God by targeting that area where the Blood line of Christ was to come through, so, God sunk the angels and people who got involved with them. Noah didnt , him and his were clean. God has a plan. God is fair. God wants His children back, the ones that want to be good. So, God has let satan to "cause" the wicked to earth, Parable of the Sower.

After Jeremiah 4: 22 and on in the first washing then we read Gen.1:3 God turns light on. 4. God started feeling better. His emotions started feeling some better over what happened. God is love I think at this point He saw the children that loveand loved Him and as we read the scriptures we notice the prophecy for the children of the light are given in days, solar and them of the darknes, satan, given in moons or lunner. As we look at solar calender it is perfect because it never changes. The spring equinox hapens the same year in and year out. We determine with the solar calender Passover. 14 days plus one after the spring equinox and we have Passover. God was with us and the light was there and the light was good. Why? It was our Father! In Revelation 21:23 we read and see we need only Father and His. Shechinah Glory. No sun created by Him for us. Why? Because God is there!

Job 38:7 all the stars and sons of God that's every soul ever created. Revelation 12 dragon satan drug or caused one third of God`s stars/children with his tail to earth.(Parable of the Sower Matt 13:36-40 I think Jesus takes His students aside and explains it there about the tares/kenites(sons of cain. Check first chron 2:55. We know from that 2 of every flesh was on the Boat. In Jeremiah 4:20 that Hebrew says God took the earth and wash it in the first flood sunk it in water and after the 2nd flood with Noah God set a rainbow and won't flood earth again but reserve until fire where He will burn evil off but that 5 months of Noah will happen again so wait for the true LORD don't get caught with a religious harlet with a false prophert(antichrist or instead of Christ) the devil Stole a third. Where ever God is-is Heaven. On earth there was a war God against a thief satan who stole Gods children. God mad turned the lights and Replenished the earth with the Good seed and the wicked one sends his tares/wicked seed.

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Everything was created by Him. Now about who sits near to Christ or if your color makes you first I wouldnt worry to much about all that if I were you. You need to seek Love in God for God is the Judge. God is Spirit and your worried about what you see and it is matter.
