GOD Created the Universe and Everything in it

In the book of Genesis, the  first book of the Bible, it says that God created the Heaven and the Earth.  Psalm 8: 3 supports this claim through the author’s glorification of God:  “When I consider thy Heaven the work of thy fingers, the moon, and the stars, which thou hast ordained.”   The book does not explain anything about God.  It simply states that in the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth, and everything that is in it.  As a result, some may then be led to ask who made God.  But that’s why the Bible says that without faith you cannot please God, you need faith to be saved, if the Bible say in the beginning God that is what it means, God was from the very beginning.  We can’t explain God, if we could He would not be God.  It is by faith that we believe what the Bible says.

John 1:1 says in the beginning was the word and the word was God.  Speaking of the Lord Jesus Christ.  God created the World, and every thing in it by speaking the word.  But human beings were special they get the touch of the Master’s hand.  In the creation of man the grace of God was represented, and God’s likeness was given to man to  represent God.  In Genesis 1: 26-27, we get a glimpse  of the Trinity at work when God said “Let us make Man in our own Image, after our own likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and the fowl of the air, and over every creeping thing that creepeth on the Earth.”  So God created Man in his own image MALE AND FEMALE. and blessed them and said “Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth.”

God formed man out of the dust of the Earth and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils.  The woman, however,  was created from the rib of the Man.  Those two first people lived in paradise, but ruined it by their disobedience to God.  The first Sin began in the Garden of Eden through the the urging of the crafty serpent.  The world’s first murder was committed by the first child, Cain, who killed his brother Abel.  Finally things got so bad that God told Noah to build an Ark--a huge boat that was 450 feet long.  For 120 years he preached to the people, warning them of impending judgment (Genesis 7).  No one listened.  God then sent the animals into the boat two by two and they marched in every one after their kind.  When the animals finished coming in, God sent a great Flood which wiped out that GENERATION.  The people who had listened to Noah refused to enter the ark.  Only EIGHT PEOPLE, Noah and his family, believed God and decided to enter the Ark before God closed the door.  When the flood was over, God sent a RAINBOW, which was evidence of His promise that He would never destroy the world again with a Flood.
