XIII        THE CREATOR OF ALL THINGS

 

GENESIS 1:1

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Humm!!
The best explanation Cosmic scientist have on our universe is that it originated from a big bang and because of the explosion, matter, light and energy are still moving away from the original point today. By observing the galaxies moving away from each other and listening to the faint radio waves of the original fireball that we are caught up in, these scientists became convinced that, indeed the universe as we know it had a birth at some point in our past by tracking the movement of our universe, but in reverse.

Looking from the bible viewpoint we can determine that the earth is just short of eleven thousand years old and that is shown by firstly finding out when Adam was created which is said to be around 4004BC +2003 gives 6006(Jew say its5763) then adding five God days of creation which preceeded it. Each of God's days seems to equal a thousand years of ours and the reason that a day of God's is equal to a thousand years can be found in the bible. With the 1000 years of Christ rule on earth it completes the twelve thousand year history of time. (Total number of tribes of Israel 12, total number of apostle 12, {Rev 21-12-14}; Total number of months in a yearly cycle 12).

( In Genesis 2-16(K.J, NRSV, Darby, A.S.V bibles) God tells Adam if he eats from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil(it's this knowledge of sin that corrupts us-if we didn't know how to be evil then we couldn't sin) in that day he will die but we know that Adam didn't die straight after he ate this fruit but lived to be 930 years old, just under a thousand years. God is not a liar so why didn't Adam die in the day he ate the apple? Other verses hint also that one day of God's is equal to a thousand year such as psalm 90-4 or 2 Peter 3-8 and another point to ponder also is that the sun and moon weren't created until the fourth day before that God just called the cycle of light "day" and darkness "night". Six days God created and on the seventh day He rested and dedicated this day as a holy day which brings us to the last 1000 years when Christ will also make holy the world when He comes to rule it after 6000 years of man's rule.)

 

JOHN 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
JOHN 1:3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
JOHN 1:10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.

Humm!!

Energy as we know it, can neither be created nor destroyed but does change from one form to another so where did this energy originate if not from God. We know that from mass we can created an enormus amount of energy(look at the nuclear bomb for an example) and the reverse is also true that from an enormous amount of energy we can create mass and it's through the energy of the all powerful Word(Jesus) everything is made.

God changed some of the energy of himself to make our universe and everything in it and this matter that was created is used in the building blocks of everything we know including ourselves. If an enormous amount of energy was squeezed into matter wouldn't that also explain the vast amount of nothingness in this universe of ours?

The difference between a solid, liquid or gas is the difference on how free the atoms within that body are able to move around.

The less the atoms move around, usually the more solid that object is but also the more individual that object is because the atoms stay together as a whole.

The difference between the elements that make up creation(including us) is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. An element can change into another by adding or subtracting a proton.

Mass therefore is a form of energy that has been locked into shape to give it individuality and where did this source of energy come from but from the all most powerful God.

 

JOHN 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

EPHESIANS 4:15-16

Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

Humm!!
Out of the Word of God the universe and everything in it was created but what is created from God is no longer God no more than a wig created from a man's head is the man unless it is once again brought back to the source. The Word became flesh in the form of Jesus and became our personal God and Savior as sin had entered into his creation. Without Jesus dying for our sins we could no longer be a part of his Body and would be cast away due to the cancerous effects of sin. Man is given the choice of accepting this forgiveness by believing that Jesus did die for their sins and making Jesus the Head of their lives or rejecting this forgiveness. Rebellion against God's perfect way of doing things brings death to our natural bodies and without Jesus who paid the price for our sins we would also suffer death(an eternal separation) from God.

Since Jesus died for the sins of those who believe in Him then those that are part of his Body have paid the price through Jesus the Head of the Body. When were baptized were baptized into the Body of Jesus and when we celebrate Holy Communion by eating the bread and drinking the wine, which is His Body and Blood, were saying Yes we want to be part of the Body of Christ. Hell, a place for sinners, couldn't hold Jesus because He is sinless and since he died for the sins of those that believe in Him then the believers that make up his Body can not be held either as the price for sin has been paid through Jesus death.

 

2 PETER 3:5-7 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God's word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

2 PETER 3:12b-13 That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.

Humm!!
When Jesus reclaims his creation to himself everything that is not a part of his Body will be purged out and then a new heaven and a new earth is made, ' the home of righteousness'.
