Genesis Chapter 1 Discussion Page 6

So God {THE FATHER} {God the Son} and {The Holy Spirit} Were all there in Genesis chapter # 1 verse 26

Dear Olive,

I agree with you that God created energy. It is a force like gravity and governed by natural laws. God's nature is not governed by anything outside of Himself. He is the only Being that is eternally self-existent. He does not derive any aspect of His nature from outside of Himself. But energy is something man God and man can control and manipulate.

Therefore, I do not believe that energy is a divine aspect, but, like matter, was created by God at the creation of the universe.

i wold say that you are right on but we are living souls; and I look at that as living energy as I think that soul, among other things, means energy; bur regardless, we are living souls and we also have a mind where we can choose right from wrong to preserve our living soul. I believe that our living soul is just below the soul of an angel and that when we preserve it; we become angels; and that all babies are little angels until they start to develop their minds and then it depends on what we and they put into it until they are mature at say 30 years or so. Thank you for a wonderful comment. Take care and be save. So far I have avoided COVID

We will never completely understand God, But he is not energy, he created it. We will never completely understand how this is possible, but I trust God on this one.

I posted a previous comment but probably did it wrong as I don't see it; but in that comment i said that it Eve was probably created on the 6th day, as that was when Adam was created but I wasn't sure because God rested on the 7th day; and thus I wondered did He create her after He rested; but now I am sure He created Eve on the 6th day not only because I think the Bible says he rested after all His creations; but also Time does not mean much to God if in fact it means anything; but it does mean a lot to me and Adam and other people as we only live so long; and thus He created Eve to be sure in Adam's time and of course she had children for Adam etc.....

wasn't that on the 6th day? I think that Eve was created from Adam but God rested on the seventh day and so I really don't know when Eve was created whether it was before God rested or after? I would have to reread about it to see if I can see the sequence.

What day did god create Eve

one of the bigger laws of physic is that energy can not be created or destroyed, So where did it come from? It had to always existed. Can you imagine there being nothing, not even energy. I can't. So I have to accept that it all started, with energy. So what is GOD if not energy and obviously that energy must be good; and energy can create matter; and in the beginning, God created Heaven and earth and his spirit, his energy, moved upon the face of the earth; and He created man and man became a Living soul, living energy; and He talked with Adam; but Adam sinned and took the power to tell right from wrong, Adam's mind; and so we are living soul with a mind. Now a search on the internet confuses and speculated how the the soul and mind are the same; but it is not according to me and I think the Bible if you tke it in sequence.

Hello Shelves,

God did not come from anywhere. He has existed always. He had no beginning and will never ceases to be. This is why He gave Moses His name as "I AM WHO I AM" or "I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE" which speaks to being everlasting, eternal, being self-existent. This means that God is Life Itself. His existence is derived only from Himself, not having acquired life or existence outside of Himself. Existence is internally Who He Is. In many places in the Scriptures God speaks of Himself as the Eternal God, Everlasting Father, Everlasting to Everlasting, ( Isaiah 63:16; 1 Chronicles 16:36; 29:10; Psalm 41:13; 90:2; Isaiah 9:6; 40:26; Psalm 93:2; Genesis 21:33; Jeremiah 10:10, etc.)

We are to understand by these Scriptures that God always IS eternally so. He alone has this eternal existence, that is why He alone is the only true God. Hope this helps.

Fake gods come from rebellion against GOD ALMIGHTY. Acts 19:26, 2Kings 19:18,

1Timothy 2:5,

The imagination of man; to ignore the obvious all around: that the earth, our very being, molecules that aren't created, only slightly manipulated by man, asks an answer beyond some comprehension.

The question itself seems to derive from rebellion. Isaiah 55:8, Isaiah 29:15,16, Psalms 94:5-15, Psalms 139, Job 38:2-41, Job 40:7-13,

GOD gave some of us very deeply inquisitive minds, to invent witty things, Proverbs 8:12, some build imaginative creations, that in ourselves deep questions of consciousness & core beginnings arise at times. In these gifted minds of power & powerful thinking, faults sometimes into arrogance of belief to define The CREATOR & make a beginning. Because in limited understanding we have beginning & perceivable ending in flesh. Yet in our core perceive there is more in the supernatural, outside the flesh. 1Corinthians 1:27,

We as humans are like gods ourselves we can choose to do mighty evil or good in our days, we can cause other's to cry in distress or rejoice with gladness but in the end we will all answer to GOD ALMIGHTY the maker of heaven & earth. Psalms 82, Leviticus 25:17, Romans 14:12,

It's also amazing that a creator would care so much for what HE has created that HE would still have a plan of redemption even after rebellion: John 3:16

Where did god come from

I love god

The day you were born

Mike Gyver, about the division of the waters during the Creation time, where the Warters were placed above "heaven" is speaking of our water in the sky, which is basically a lot. He had it in a great place of early time. If you read in the Genesis, it says it did not rain, but had due to water the plants. When the flood of Noah's time came, God opened the gates and let the water come back to Earth as the Flood. After this went by, God set in evaporation to gradually send the waters into the atmosphere in the form of clouds. Then is when rain began. It is a gradual pace over the Earth, so there will never be another Flood of the sots in Noah's time. We do have floods dome of the time, on some of the Earth, but not all at once. People cause the floods by turning away from God. Just as with droughts and storms. When people start obeying God in life, He blesses us with good weather.

Hi Gregory. If I have your question correct, 'now that I am a believer trusting in Jesus only to save me from sin's penalty, when did the promise of eternal life with the Father in Heaven commence?'

If correct, it is my belief that the promise of eternal life began immediately upon your new birth by God's Spirit. When we look at the Scriptures referring to eternal life, we see that it is synonymous to believing/placing one's trust in the Lord. John 3:36: "He that believeth on the Son HATH everlasting life." John 5:24: "He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, HATH everlasting life." John 6:47: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me HATH everlasting life."

1 John 5:11-13: "And this is the record, that God HATH GIVEN to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that HATH the Son HATH life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that YE MAY KNOW THAT YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."

All these verses indicate that eternal life is our present possession, i.e. 'you have it NOW'. As soon as our hearts were renewed & the Holy Spirit came to indwell us, our sin was dealt with, we became God's children, and our earthly walk was no longer uncertain, overcome with sin & living without hope in God's Love. And that is why the Apostle Paul stated in Philippians 3:20, "For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ". Paul understood that our conversation (Gk. politeuma: citizenship) had already begun in the heavenlies; that our earthly life now, is just an earthly sojourn - "our affections are set on things above, not on Earth" and "for here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come."

When once this earthly life was probably our only joy & hope, now IN CHRIST, we are but pilgrims here, gazing upward, confident & secure towards eternity.

What was the main reason they imposed taxes in Bible?

God created a wonderful earth and sky animals fish birds and insects and man it was good in the beginning

Before God was created the creation, I could see the first Trinitarian from the beginning of the Genesis:1:1-3, I feel what God carried out the things from his word, it was His power of the Spirit, and the same word could seen the transformation took placed in the Mother Mary womb when Jesus had to born, and thus it meant by John say in the gospel to us 1:1, In the beginning was the word, and the word was with the God, and the word was God, So I could see the first Trinitarian stood side by side,

I would like to know the Biblical referemce of the parable of the fig tree ?

There an time when God Spoke unto me with His great Holy voice and with authority and power and there was an time when mine Lord Spoke unto me NO WHAT YOU BELIEVE ARE MAN'S RULES AND LAW'S AND NOT MINE OWN WHAT DOES MY WRITTEN WORD SAY ? And I felt as if mine Lord was making known me that He would me read His written Word and I had thought what am I going to do try and read through the whole Bible to try and find what it is He is trying to show me and then I had thought oh well I'll try and I had believed there to be a Bible lying on the floor next to me and when I looked to my left to try and see if I could see The Bible there right next to me was what appeared unto me as bright shimmering light's and as I leaned backwards it was revealed unto me that it was a portal/Porter/Gate way and on The other side was an open Book of scripture sitting on a table in someone else's Home and I moved and got before it for at the first it was to the side of me and at the first I had seen it from the same side so I moved and gotten in front of it and I read all of the herb's and erbs of thee Earth are for man to eat and CONSUME.

Dear Mike Gyver,

The Godhead made the heavens and the earth. So, Genesis is saying that all that exists, whether earthly or heavenly, whether made of physical matter or are of spiritual substance was made by and for Himself. So, Before the beginning of creation, only the Godhead existed.

It says that God made the heavens first, and then the earth. So, it may be that He made the heavenly, spiritual realm first, then the physical realm. We do not know all that God created in our physical universe, nor all that He created in the spiritual realm. We are discovering some of what is out in space bit by bit, but some reaches of the universe we will never know in this life.

After God made the heavens and the earth, Genesis said that the earth was void and covered with water. And the Spirit hovered over the waters before God continued to create the habitat and inhabitants of the earth.

I do not read in this account where there is frozen dark water out in space. Can you cite your source for that? If this is true, then the Genesis account does not reveal this, we have discovered it through scientific exploration.

Heaven existed before God began creating. Everything wonderful and beautiful; mysterious and plain, came out of God. He is the Great God of all wonders!

How cannot we worship and love the God who made all we know? Our souls came from Him. When we give ourselves fully to Him, He comes and makes his abode within our hearts, and abodes with us.

We are completely conscious that he's in our heart, mind and soul. The Creator of all that we know of. Merciful and Kind.

He is Holy. Our souls know this, but sometimes the fleshly, earthy part of us can rebel against true reality, that humans are not gods. We were born to be the receivers of the love He desires to give to us.

We cannot be gods ourselves apart from God. This is what Satan tried to do. his future is completely recorded in the Bible.

God exists inside of Time, and outside of Time.

He knows you and desires that you will choose to live with Him in Heaven. We will see Him every day.

After all the end times wars are fought between nations_it will be finished. 2 Peter 3, teaches that Earth will be burned up. All of man's scars upon it will be burned. God will re-create it again. Those who chose Jesus to save their souls, will return to the New Creation.

What will be different is that Satan the Destroyer will be chained up in hell 1000 years. He will be let out to tempt the people who who survived the horrors of the Tribulation (physically), and called on God to save them. They will still be human. In Heaven they will have that 1000 years to choose Jesus as Savior and Lord. Satan will try to recruit them to fight against God, one more time. It's a short period of time.

At the end of that war in heaven, Satan and those who fought With him, will be judged. Satan will be thrown into the Lake of Fire eternally. That's his final END. He will never escape again.

Choose Jesus NOW. Everything I wrote is scripture in the Bible. I saw Jesus at my salvation in a vision. HE IS ALIVE!!

Because God is the God of all creation He do what He like He is creator sustain everything Himself . He is life everything .

Hi dear Mike Gyver, Now you think earthly. Our home country is in a different dimension in a way. See: Ephesians 6:12-18 and Hebrew 4:12

If you want to study this correctly, you will understand that the sky is more than what the eye can see. We need everyone to look up to this Kingdom of God. Good luck with your studies. God loves you in the name of Jesus, i in christ.

How is their frozen dark water in the universe, surrounded by the Spirit of God, before the creation story?

its the best bible ever
