In The Beginning

Where did everything come from? In the beginning, God created the Heaven's and the Earth. God has always been, but everything else has a beginning because God created everything else. What is the purpose of Genesis chapter 1? The purpose is to tell us that He created it and why He created all things, but not specifically how. Although God created everything, that does not mean that He created everything we see in its present condition. We should not rebel against a God who knows everything, even our thoughts and reasons why we do things. There is no reason why we should fear because God is created everything and He is in control of all things. Our job was not to rule the Earth but to manage the Earth for the Ruler. We need to appreciate the beauty of the world, even after the fall. We are walking miracles. God designed us to be a magnificent representation to reflect God's glory.
