Thank you for your view
Genesis 1:2
2. 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.
lets begin:
genesis 1:2:
2. for the creation of earth was only its shape. for there were no mountains, no sky, no trees, no land; there was nothing; only water throughout.
also there was only darkness throughout till GOD’S glory shined forth from the darkness and moved upon the waters; the logos; being the very spirit of GOD.
one must also question what was this spirit of GOD moving about upon the waters. and we discover that the logos is GOD’S HOLY LIVING WORD. for the logos is all that was, that is, and that shall be before the very foundations.
in other words; the logos is the pure essence and the pure word of GOD that came forth from GOD and is a part of GOD in every essence; and within this pure essence and pure word of GOD came forth our LORD JESUS CHRIST and every true son and daughter of GOD before the very foundations.
for this is were GOD our father, which is a spirit form of GOD in us, and then GOD’S only begotten son came forth from the logos of GOD creating the sonship of GOD along with every true son and daughter of GOD.
this is GOD in three different offices; and not three coequal individuals as trinitarians believe. GOD is not a unitarian; for our LORD JESUS CHRIST cannot be his own father. GOD is also not a binitarian as well; for our LORD JESUS CHRIST is a man indwelled with GOD, not two equal GODS.
GOD/ LORD/ GOD in heaven
GOD/ JESUS/ GOD on earth; in a 100% man ( JESUS CHRIST ) indwelled with 100% GOD; as prophesied
GOD/ CHRIST/ GOD in us; HOLY SPIRIT
also contained in that logos of GOD was the holy bible already fulfilled and glorified. it just had to be manifested and played out on earth.
for the logos is the very word of GOD that first was a thought, then that thought became a spoken word of GOD, and then that spoken word of GOD became manifested. so the word of GOD is eternal and just as the holy bible states is going to remain when all else to destroyed.
also if the logos is the pure essence and word of GOD and is eternal; then; the true sons and daughters of GOD have always been eternal and we have always been a part of GOD’S manifesting word before the very foundations as to also being a part of every event that occurred throughout the holy bible. for the pure essence and word of GOD is one body, one mind, and one word always producing and manifesting.
so in other words; the logos; has been moving throughout the holy bible producing and manifesting the true sons and daughters of GOD at its appropriate time from the logos of GOD and has always been a part of GOD’S works and will before the very foundations of GOD; for we have always been a part of the spirit of GOD moving throughout the bible.
now try grasping all this and meditating on it for awhile till it truly sinks in for a moment; it will blow your mind as it did mine.
Charles (Post 32): Thank you for clarifying.
Re post 31, Roland, just to clarify, I absolutely do NOT blame God for anything. My point was clearly that God does NOT inspire false information, and therefore he could not have inspired Genesis.
Charles (Post #30): People blame God for lots of things He does not do. If He does not get worked up, I should not either. Thank you for sharing your point of view.
Roland, I agree with points 1, 2 and 3 in Post 9, but your last point doesn’t follow. How can God inspire false information?
Charles (Post #28): “It’s the simplest of all logical deductions…..” Indeed it is the simplest of all deductions:
1. In Genesis there is insufficient detail, so man and science cannot explain
God’s handiwork.
2. Man and science remain ignorant of God’s creation.
3. Man and science cannot answer simple questions about lots of stuff such as,
“How did God do that?”
4. Ergo, Genesis MUST be God-inspired.
Well, Roland (post 27), it’s the simplest of all logical deductions:
1. In Genesis there is gross ignorance of the solar system and the cosmos.
2. It CAN’T be that God is ignorant of his own creations.
3. Ergo, Genesis CAN’T be God-inspired.
Charles (Post #26): Let me guess. You are thinking the Book of Genesis is a fable. Right?
In previous posts you discarded the veracity of at least one or more other Bible books because you do not believe they are God-breathed and inspired. May I ask, how many books of the Bible you find are God breathed and inspired? Or, is the whole Bible just a nice book to study as literature?
SOME MATH ABOUT THE GAP THEORY
The gap theory cannot be dismissed altogether because between Gen. 1:1 and Gen. 1:2 the counting of the days had not yet begun. But once the count starts… “the evening and the morning”… then there is no doubt that the Bible is talking about actual 24-hour days.
Well, let’s hold off for now on that 24-hour day! The argument that the days were longer has no basis whatsoever either in science or in the Bible, but it’s the last line of defence for those who believe the Biblical creation story to be true. So let’s leave it open for now.
We DO know that Earth has been revolving around the sun for 4.54 billion years. This we cannot just pretend it’s not true. What the gap theory does is that it puts 4,539,994,000 of these years (4.54 billion less 6,000 years) in the gap, and thus reconciles science with the Bible (as far as Earth is concerned). With the longer-day argument we don’t even need a gap. We could say that each of the six creation days lasted 766,665,667 years (4,599,994,000 divided by 6) and still reconcile science with the Bible (again, as far as Earth is concerned). I suppose the days returned to normal immediately after God rested because I can’t imagine Adam living 930 x 766,665,667 years, thus dying at the age of 13 billion years!
Now let’s take the sun. This is where every Biblical theory falls apart because the sun is actually 60 million years OLDER than Earth. Gap or no gap, the Bible puts this sequence in reverse. Same thing (even worse) if we try to explain the stars.
So the longer days don’t help, and the gap doesn’t either. By having Earth existing before the creation of the sun and stars no argument can help defend the Genesis account.
