  • Bane on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    I am beginning to read the Gospel of Matthew and I went to Wikipedia to renew my knowledge about the circumstances how the Gospel was created. And then something occur to my mind that shocked me. A few days ago I red something about white garment in the Gospel of Mark, where somebody (let me be forgiven) supposes that young man with the white garment is Mark himself. Somebody on the internet gives a comment which is a total ignorance, and only a few clicks of mouse away he has a pretty good facts about every Gospel. Who wrote it, when, in what purpose…
    The Holy Bible is not a book of history but WORD OF GOD where He in His (for us strange) ways try to tell us something. Knowing of some facts can not destroy THE WORD OF GOD. SEEK THE GOD TO BE ALIVE. Now I have a question. What is the baptism with the Holy Spirit and did somebody experience it.
  • Vince on Genesis 1:2 - 14 years ago
    The earth was a pretty place before satan was cast out of heaven and came to earth and his sin caused the earth to become dark without form and void.
  • Sherlene on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    This is the first chapter in the Bible and this is to show us that our God is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last. He has the Power over all things. He is the creator and he is God no other besides him, THE TRUE LIVING GOD THAT WHEN SPEAKS ALL THINGS COME FORTH.HALLELUJAH!
  • Garyloyd on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    Joe`s... its not you, its me. Its just the way I talk. I blast people and I got to quit so says my Brother R.C. best way to figure it out is google search E.W.Bulleinger the Companion Bible Appendix and scroll down to appendix # 146 and it will explain the world ages and give you insight.
  • Garyloyd on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    Joe`s. Then what do you do about the rest of the scriptures as @ Peter 3:5 to 7 where its speaks of the world that was and the world of old and when looking up words you find out there are going to be three earth age`s and this one is in the middle. Also then we would have to change Jeremiah 4:23 to 26 or take it out where we all got stupit and all the cities gone and man was taken off the earth and animals/birds gone. Then we best go to Isaiah 45:18 and change how GOD created a beautiful earth in the beginning. Oh! We need to change that fourth word was "hayah" because if you look up code #1961 for was it turns out the earth became without form and void. Proverbs 8:22 to the end would have to be changed where God tells us He had wisdom and created a wonderfull place for His children to live and Him and his wisdom and all the children were shouting for joy because of it was beautiful. We need to go back to Job and make changes with 38:7 where it says the complete family was there and it was beautiful. We would have to go to the New Testamant and change the word "foundation" all when speaking of the creation and what took place in the mysteries of God when you look up the word it is katabole and means cast down overthrow and fits all together with Ezekiel 28 where pride got to satan and he tried to steal Gods throne. Plus we would need to go to Revelation and take out verse 4 where satan as the dragon took a third of God`s children. Oh, yeah! Need to take out Matt 13 where it explains in verse 36 to 44 that satan stold children and cast them to the earth and they are tares. I think we should just keep the scriptures God gave us they all work together just right and that onee word replenish, well, it means just what it means that this is our second time on this planet earth. I say that because God said Jacob I loved and Esau I hated and to say something like that God had to live and knew Esau. Just as when you read Jeremiah and ordained Jeremiah in the first earth age and tells us that He,God knew jeremiah before he put him in his Mothers womb. Let's just study hard and learn the word and not keep one word plenish and toss all the rest of the scriptures out.
  • LISA on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    WE SAY GOD IS A SPIRIT, WHY WE SAY FATHER.IS FATHER NOT A MALE.HELP
  • G.L. on Genesis 1:1 - 14 years ago
    I believe this was millions of years ago and God created a beautiful earth as He said in Isaiah 45:18. At that time we were with Him as its spoken of in Proverbs 8:31 and again the whole family was mentioned in Job 38:7.
  • Sherry on Genesis 1:11 - 14 years ago
    god gave us seed bearing herbs to use. it's in Genesis 1:6-7,and several other version of the Bible.
  • Joe on Genesis 1:28 - 14 years ago
    to better define the word replenish, go to Strongs Hebrew and Greek lexicon web page, and also for other help in defining words, the translation for replenish there is : to fill, be full, fill and subdue, confirm and consecrate. Use that website in concordance with this one!
  • Joe on Genesis 1:28 - 14 years ago
    Rory is 100 % correct in his translation, replenish although is used, to imply thatit means to replace, is like saying that theres such a word as plenish when reading this, but plenish is not a word, I gather thai it implies to keep creation going, to cause it to spread, rejuvenate, procreate, as there was nothing here before. Concerning the phrase before the foundations...., that is a reference as to how God sees time, the past, present and future are all one to him. he knew us beforewe were born, he sees us now, and also sees us in heaven with him, all at the same time, all as one!, howver it is up to us whether or not we truly end up in heaven with him in the end (predestination). Read also the first chapter of John, pay close attention to the 1st 5, or 6 verses!
  • Garyloyd on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    To learn more on "foundation" to understan the use of of the word go google serch for levendwater Companion Bible appendix and scroll down to appendix 146.
  • Garyloyd on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    Proverbs 8 the world of old, world that was, Peter spoke of it in 2nd Peter. The first Earth age was destroyed by water in Jereniah 4. We all got stupit in our spirit bodies. I think besides the fact of the cast-down, overthrow or katabole as spoken of if you look up "foundation" in the New Testament,anyway, I think one of the reasons, and with all that was going on during that time of lucifer forming his power system or political system spoken of in the Out line of the Word in Revelation 12 in verse 3 it is told to us his party and him as the dragon has 7 heads with 10 horns of power and with 7 crowns and with that bad bunch they gathered a third to follow that idiot dragon and in 4 it says as the Parable of the sower, and Jesus took the disciples a side and explained it to them in Matt. 13:37 to about 43. The outline shows us and over all view of the word and it is closely nit together. I think with all that was going on we just didn't know what Family and deep love was all about. That and everything else that was going on may have been a reason we all who love God had to come or be borned of the flesh to understand things and to realize Fathers love and life is beautiful. Another thing I want to say, the names of satan in 12:9 are to be understood for each in the word holds something when you search them out as his roll as a dragon,serpent,devil,satan. As dragon he is coming,as serpent,he is a slick talker stealing souls. So when you read the word watch the different ways and actions satan will use against the Children each is a roll that will make himself look just like a sheep who came to save you but he is a dragon who will drag you into hell. He is trying to get us all people and this is serious. His priest are coming with their breastplates of iron on as the Jewish Priest use to ware with the 12 stones of the 12 tribes. These long haired soft spoken preachers is the meaning of their hair of woman. Gold crowns in verse 7 is fake gold and lions teeth to ripp your soul away from God who loves you, yeah, softly ripp your soul away from God who loves you. Read the Word the letter Father send to us so we can make it back home. Christ died for all your and my sins, "all" He did this for Us. He loves us! Ask! Through that blood and its done, He did it so we can get home to him. Oh, that 5 months of satans control that God allows him and the 2 and half months satan and the locust army is here. Don't buy or sale. Barter if you have to for food. During the time of Harvest say july through Sept have your rent paid and bills and wait for Father Christ Jesus. If you study and are prepared to stand for 10 days at any time as one of the elect don't worry Father is and will be with you and just don't make a fuss or fight. Be taken in and blank ur mind and don't think and let Gods Holy Spirit do the talking in tounges so all will understand to turn away from the devil and not par-take in his going to hell system. Stand for God and the way He says. No one flys away we are all changed at the same time on the 7th trump. Be happy have a nice day. God loves you. When you ask for forgivenes, BELIEVE and be happy. Oh! Be good and try not to do it again.
  • Garyloyd on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    God is not male or female. God is Spirit. God can create a man or woman from a stone. Babling confussion will get you struck with a rod of iron like these babling preachers. Judgment starts at the babling pulpit. You may be joking about mother this or that as a god. You just keep reading the word and you will understand there is only ONE Father and ONE GOD and ONE Image that will sit on ONE Throne.
  • Van Neal on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    I am confused with para 26,27. These sections name fish,cattle and whales. God created them male and female, this reference is before eve and indicates when Adam was created a female was created at the same time.
  • Tony Christ on Genesis 1:2 - 14 years ago
    God did not create the earth to be void, dark and formless.
    why do i say that?
    this is because it is inconsistent with the nature of God to make something that is imperfect.
    Jas 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights...
    So God couldn't have created an earth that would become void and dark such that God would have to bring light and reform it again.
    So you may ask? So what is the Bible talking about here in Gen 1:2.
    Now understand this...
    God created the heaven and earth IN THE BEGINNING; not on the first day.
    It was the first day that God started his "creation work on the earth".
    But between the BEGINNING and the FIRST DAY that God started working on the earth, somethings were already happening on the earth because God had already created the heaven and the earth. And it was these things that caused the earth to become void, dark and formless. So God came in to reform the earth.
    Gen 1:1-2 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. AND the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
    God created the heaven and the earth AND the earth was without form...
    note that the "AND" there does not necessarily denote a continuation but can indicate a duration between the event before and after.
    So I believe God created a perfect heaven and earth with creatures living in it but something happened and the perfect earth that God created became void, dark and formless. So God came in to reform that earth for man who was now going to take over the earth; so I support Insights comment that there was an earth age before this age mentioned here in the Gen 1:2-.
    Note: What God told man right after He created him:
    Gen 1:28...God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH the earth, and subdue it...
    God told man to REPLENISH the earth. God would not have told man to replenish the earth if at a time it did not have life on it before man came. So man had to refill that once filled earth.
    You may ask,"what was the earth fill with" You may also ask "what happened to the perfect earth that God created for it to become void, dark and formless". Well I can't go into that now; maybe another time.
    But the reason why the Holy Spirit did not reveal it into details to Moses was because this Chapter was talking about man so what was happening before the age of man is not that "necessary".
  • Carolyn on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    THE BEGINNING CAME OUT OF ETERNITY: EXAMPLE ETERNITY-(INFINITE DURATION) ITS LIKE A COMPLETE
    CIRCLE-[O] (IT NEVER ENDS. BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS WERE BROUGHT FORTH, OR EVER THOU HADST FORMED THE EARTH AND THE WORLD, EVEN FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING, THOU ART GOD- PSALM 90:1.
    GOD IS ABSOLUTE. HE IS ETERNAL OR SOVERIGN. HE IS THE BEGINNING AND END.WISDOM BEING STYLED AS A FEMALE- PROVERBS 8:1-4. SAYS THE LORD POSSESSED WISDOM IN THE BEGINNING OF HIS WAY, BEFORE HIS
    WORKS OF OLD (ANCIENT)WISDOM SAYS SHE WAS SET UP FROM EVERLASTING, FROM THE BEGINNING, OR EVER THE EARTH WAS. WISDOM SAYS "WHEN THERE WERE NO DEPTH, I WAS BROUGHT FORTH; WHEN THERE WERE NO FOUNDATIONS ABOUNDING WITH WATER. BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS WERE SETTLED, BEFORE THE HILLS WAS SHE BROUGHT FORTH:WHILE AS YET HE HAD MADE THE EARTH, NOR THE FIELDS, NOR THE HIGHEST PART OF THE DUST OF THE WORLD" .WISDOM SAYS, "WHEN HE PREPARED THE HEAVENS, SHE WAS THERE- IN OTHER WORDS SHE WAS THERE BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD.GOD HAD THE PLAN OF SALVATION FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD- IT JUST DID'NT BEGIN IN THE BEGINNING. CHRIST IS AND WAS IN GOD...AND SO WERE AND ARE WE. MS. THOMAS
  • Garyloyd on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    I think after being in Vietnam and other parts of the far east where they raise fish and live that life I saw, that if, your from the far east, maybe so. When God made all the 6th day children and re-plenished the earth He may of just started there. It looks as if He started them first the way the Word reads.
  • TED ARDA on Genesis 1:27 - 14 years ago
    Does it mean the image of God combines all the traits and character of each races on earth. (i.e., chinese, african, whites, indians, etc.) -
  • TED ARDA on Genesis 1:26 - 14 years ago
    until now we are still muddling along the meaning of the word LET US. logically, the word requires nothing but a simple comprehension that it would be very impossible to create man and woman following one singular image and character. i therefore conclude that there was and there is a MOTHER (female), i repeat, A MOTHER GOD. lets free our mind from the doctrine of a singular GOD housed inside the character of SINGULAR FATHER GOD, otherwise, we are decieving ourselves and we are denying the existence of every women, who like our mother, maternally held us for nine months and raised us until were capable of tendering for our own existence.
  • Riley on Genesis 1:21 - 14 years ago
    which the waters brought forth aboundantly; is this in some way stating the life did indeed come from the waters?
  • Rory on Genesis 1:28 - 14 years ago
    the correct word is "fill the earth and subdue it , its speculation contrary to Genesis 1 to think that this Adam was replacement , also Rev 13:8 the founding of the "World " is not the planet but when Adam and Eve had children , the World of people, that God loved
  • Yomi on Genesis 1:28 - 14 years ago
    My understanding about the verse is that,God has provided everything for man,but want us to use wisdom to discover them.
  • Ben on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    This is a heavy scripture and I don't know if you mare of God or The Other One? One thing I will tell you is that was a Spirit at the time of creation and the Earth was created Spiritual first and then He made His Creation! Can you understand this, if you don't then you'll be confused about all else?! Find my Facebook page and write to me?!
  • Abren Williams on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    with the world as it is you almost wonder why God is as good as he is.It not hard to to figure out that we have gone out of our way to show our unthankfulness. ABut when I read the Bible I see that God is so much larger than our petty views and loves us far beyond any thing wwe could possibly imagine.
  • Delicia on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    the story of earth's creation is deep and i always for sum odd reason find myself back at the creation before i read anything else in the bible
  • Iris on Genesis 1 - 14 years ago
    For a being to create something from nothing lets me know that it's more to life than life.
