Faith is more than thinking. Need mind of Christ to think properly. Interesting to note that in Chapter 1:26 27. So on point with homosexual marriages and other stuff. But interesting to note is that in the verse 26 where it says, man was created in "our " image, denotes a plurality of aspects within one God. This is known as Elohim and refers to the Holy Trinity or many aspects within one God. I suggest before you put the Bible on line that you need to be Spirit filled.
God said let there be light. Does that mean light already existed and He meant let it be? Did He mean light be created? To begin? When God was with Moses in the desert, His presence was that of a cloud of light fire at night and appeared as a cloud during the day. God said the light is good. I was looking at the sun one day and there were white clouds with in the sky with it. As I looked suddenly instead of continuing to move in one direction, they started to move in opposite direction away from the sun, with the sun in between. As the white clouds moved away, then came out of the sun yellow clouds. Moving in opposite direction horizontally out of the sun. When I saw this, I suddenly felt power enter into me. Though a man suffer all his life, a man is but a blink of Gods eyes. My knowledge is not complete. I am learning continually. I wish I had all the answers and power to bring peace to the earth. But I know God knows all of what is going on in life. To me He always will be beyond my comprehension. This is what I think about. And it 's fun for me to just ponder and ponder. Well, I need to rest. Therefore I leave you. Please email me, with Love David.
Firmament....the ice shell around the earth in the sky that supported the sea above....the floodgates of which were opened at the flood, described as a deluge.. The firmament was destroyed in 70CE the year of Armaggedon .
If only God could open our spiritual understanding,then we will see that God loves us, and has giving us Hope, Joy, power and every good things of life not only to subdue, but also, to be fruitful, flourish, multiply and to have dominion over the earth. We have the joy of everlasting, knowing fully well of our father 's gracious gift to the world. if only we can remember this in our challenges and in every faceth of our lives,then it will see that we have nothing to worry about but to keep our head up and be glad always in the Lord...This portion restores my Soul... its an everlasting promise Halleluyah!
James in response to your question from chapter 1 when God used the phrase "Our image " He is referring to God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit which all is God. In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God...Later the Word became flesh and dwelt among us and we now refer to the Word as Jesus..We are all made in the image of God created in His likeness.. Hope that helps alittle
Reading John 1:1-5, we will find out that The Word was with God in the beginning. Verse 1 says 'lInux the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and God was the word ' '. So if you agree with the Bible, you will know that The word became flesh Jesus . And the Same John 1 says that by the Word was everything made and without Him there was nothing made that was made. That means God was using the Word Jesus to create everything and that means the consent of the Word Jesus , which is also God according to John 1:1 was needed in the creation process. If so, who was God now speaking to that ' 'Let us make man in our own image and likeness? ' ' If not Jesus. Now that said, if you believe in the Word in John 4:24 ' 'God is a spirit: and they that worship Him must Worship Him in truth and in Spirit ' ', then there is no reason for you now not to know that God is Jesus and God is the Spirit. The reason why He is called the HolySpirit is because there can be evil spirit but His own Spirit is Holy. I pray that God explains it to you Himself the Same way He did to me so that no indoctrination will be a veil on your face. Amen!!!
I understand in this text it was he God that created the heavens and earth and everything that was placed in it from the beginning of creation nothing that was made that wasn 't made by him
Genesis 1:7 "And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. " God made the sky a solid vault that divides water above and below said vault? So above our apparently tangible atmosphere there is a literal Heaven, and above that there is nothing but water? Someone please help me to better understand this, because this doesn 't seem to make any sense to me. I am open to other interpretations.
THIS CHAPTER TELL 'S US ' THEIR IS A LIVING GOD " WHO MADE THE HEAVEN 'S AND EARTH AND EVERY LIVING CREATURE IN IT,LETS THANK HIM FOR HIS PERFECT CREATION. AAAMEN.
God wanted light and it was so. He IS the LIGHT. I don 't think he needed permission from the sun to give him light. Remember he created the sun on the 4th day for mans the earths use, not for his.
