“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Genesis 1:11In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. (Genesis 1:1).
God Himself has told us about His wonderful creation of the heaven and the earth. No one else could have told us.
When a boy wants to make a wagon, he has to have wood, nails, and wheels: or if a girl wants to make a doll dress, she must have cloth with which to make it. But God had nothing to make the heaven and earth out of. He made them by His power, and everything He does is perfect. He does not tell us how long it remained so, but in the 2nd verse we are told,
“And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.” We are not told when the change took place, but now God was going to prepare it for people to live on.
“Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” Hebrews 11:44By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. (Hebrews 11:4).
“For every house is builded by some man; but He that built all things is God.” Hebrews 3:44For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God. (Hebrews 3:4).
“He hath made the earth by His power, He hath established the world by His wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by His discretion.” Jer. 10:1212He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. (Jeremiah 10:12).
