    Genesis 1:2 Words in italic type have been ADDED for clarity. They are NOT found in the original Hebrew or Aramaic.

    Genesis 1:5 Lit. And evening was, and morning was, a day, one.

    Genesis 1:6 expanse

    Genesis 1:16 luminaries

    Genesis 1:20 souls

    Genesis 1:20 expanse

    Genesis 1:26 Syr. all the wild animals of

    Genesis 1:28 moves about on

    Genesis 1:30 a living soul

    In Genesis 1:1 "In The" is not joined to the word Beginning.

    This is the teaching I heard long ago.

    The first thing God created, spoke, is:

    Beginning

    He created TIME for mankind. It would tick down to zero when He stands up___and the Age is closed out.



    I missed the explanation because I was still reading it, as, In The_____

    GOD did not create TIME in Genesis 1, or around 6.000 years ago, no, absolutely no.

    What prevails is the Word of GOD, do you agree? The WORD is GOD.

    Proverbs 8:v.22-23 and 30-31CJB, among others: (CJB-Complete Jewish Bible)

    22 "Adonai made me as the beginning of his way,

    the FIRST of His ancient works.

    23 I was appointed before the world,

    before the start, before the earth's beginnings.

    30 I was with Him as someone He could trust.

    For me, every DAY was pure delight,

    as I played in His presence ALL THE TIME.

    31 playing everywhere on His earth,

    and delighting to be with humankind.

    Many times before the GOD's Plan of retoration of all things, as was revealed to Moses, i.e. Genesis, there was a multitude in the Garden of Eden ruled by a Cherub, the son of morning, but today is the sosns of perdition, the man of sin. Isaiah 14:v.12 to 15 reveal:

    12 "How did you come to fall from the heavens,

    morning star, SON of the dawn?

    How did you come to be cut to the GROUND,

    conqueror of NATIONS?

    13 You thought to yourself, 'I will scale the heavens,

    I will raise my throne above God's stars. (God's stars? Read Daniel 3)

    I will sit on the Mount of ASSEMBLY

    far away in the NORTH. (In the NORTH? Psalm 48:v.2 CJB - (2) beautiful in its elevation, the joy of all the earth,

    Mount Tziyon, in the far NORTH, the City of the Great King. See, the City of the Great King is in the NORTH)

    14 I will rise past the tops of the clouds,

    I will make myself like the Most High.'

    15 "Instead you are brought down to Sh'ol,

    to the uttermost depths of the pit.

    GOD - the Word is GOD - has not begining , neither ending, GOD is from Eternity to Eternity, JESUS is the beginning and the ending, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

    I know what I heard from the Holy Spirit...who is the Spirit of Christ. He did Create Time.

    You skipped over all these verses:

    Genesis 1:14

    And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for SIGNS, and for SEASONS, and for DAYS, and YEARS.

    Psalms 104:19

    He appointed the moon for SEASONS: the sun knoweth his going down.

    1 Thessalonians 5:1

    But of the TIMES and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

    Leviticus 23:4

    These are the feasts OF THE LORD, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.

    Acts 1:7

    And he said unto them, It is NOT FOR YOU to know the TIMES or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his OWN power.

    Psalm 31:15

    15 My TIMES are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

    This shows that God created, and is in control of Time. He said: In Beginning. The word THE isn't even in the Hebrew or Aramaic languages.

    For me, it would be sin to argue with God about a Rhema word given. He doesn't give those out like candy from His pocket.

    How many people do you think reject Gods part in Creation, because of archaeological discoveries and carbon dating? Why would not, now, introduce clarity? When "they" are digging up what they need to build the Third Temple.

    Your argument is with God. Not me. I hear, I speak. He's going to watch over His Word. Not me.

    I dare to say, there will be a huge harvest in the scientific community. They've been looking for aliens and planets they can colonize. Mining asteroids to see what materials they can make power with, for their space colonies. Sources for water. They just don't know that TIME is almost up.

    The Fig Tree is blooming. What is happening in Israel is not temporary. It's unprecedented. My only defense, is my Attorney, Jesus. Take this up with Him.

    Pray for the Harvest.

    Hi Mishael.

    I agree with you, God created time. He's outside of time and he created it for us.

    This does it for me:

    Genesis 1:5. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening AND THE MORNING WERE THE "FIRST DAY."

    God bless you.

    In the beginning - Genesis 1:v.1 - has nothing to do with TIME, but a PERSON, In fact the TIME and the PERSON existed much before, include in the Garden of Eden when they heard the voice of the Lord GOD walking in the Garden in the cool of the Day: so the Word of GOD is being twisted according your conceptions. I am saying this because I am of the Day, not of the Night, GOD separated one from another.

    1 Thessalonians 5:v.4 to 11

    4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that Day should overtake you as a thief.

    5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

    6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

    7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

    8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

    9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

    10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

    11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

    I did not skip any of the verses you have quoted in your message, for I referred to Genesis 1:v.1 to say to you, I repeat, that "GOD did not create TIME in Genesis 1 or around 6.000 years ago, no, absolutely no"; indeed, to say so would be ridiculous, and cause for mockery against God's people.

    So let's agree that we disagree. I will discuss this no more.

    I think your other posts are really good.
