6. Isaiah 45:7, “7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.” B. John 1:1-3, “1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.”

Gen 1:26-27, “26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” A. When God said to Wisdom, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness”, the Word of God was thrown out of God’s mouth began forming man from the dust of the ground.
1. The word of God formed Adam with Eve inside of Him which is the mystery of the body of Christ from before the foundation of the world.
2. God gave Eve “dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth” with Adam, just has the body of Christ has dominion with Jesus, not over Jesus.
3. Just as Eve was in Adam when God formed Adam from the beginning, the Church was in Christ when God formed the Word from the beginning.
4. If we can understand Adam and Eve, we can understand the mystery of the Jesus and the Church; if we cannot understand the oneness of Adam and Eve, we will never know Jesus and the mystery of Christ and the
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." Holy Scripture begins with these solemn words. The profession of faith takes them up when it confesses that God the Father almighty is "Creator of heaven and earth" (Apostles' Creed), "of all that is, seen and unseen" (Nicene Creed). We shall speak first of the Creator, then of creation and finally of the fall into sin from which Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to raise us up
John opens saying “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning” (John 1:1) and later, “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us” (John 1:14). In Genesis 1:1 God spoke, and everything was created, similarly in Psalms 33:6 the heavens are depicted as being made “by the word.” Elwell defines the Greek term for word as logos (696). “Word” has a meaning that that relates Jesus to the wisdom of the new testament and law of God
In his essay, Wackenroder decides that words are God’s gift to humanity; language comes from Heaven (44). He arrives at this conclusion through Biblical references in which Adam, the first man, was given the power to name everything on Earth under God.
Entwistle (2004) states that “the book of God 's word referred to the Bible, and the book
Due to the Bible solely being inspired by God, but strictly composed by men, an argument becomes clearly evident that both human and divine elements construct the Scripture. Without the divine component, God’s revelation
Thus the Bible is verbally inspired in every single word (2 Timothy 3:16), absolutely inerrant in the original documents, and infallible, because every word has been out breathed by God.
“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.” Gen1:1-2
The Word of God is a creation of God, just has the words that come out of your mouth are creations of your mouth.
Wisdom derives from the insightful words of wise people, but its ultimate origin is the Word of God. (Gimpel, 2011, p. 21)
The Bible is the word of God but not the Word of God. See what I did there?
As humans we want to know things. It is a natural thing to want to find or, search out, that which is not known. Man, in parallel with this last sentence, has searched for years to find how they began. There is just one problem. The answer is sitting right in front of them, and they refuse to believe it because it admits the insignificance of their own selves.
Creation-God, the excited Father to be was like parents expecting a new baby. Like a child’s parents, God prepared everything for us.(Gen 1). Not only did God create us, but before we were created, he created this world, and everything in it for us.
The Word of God is not simply a collection of Words from God; it is the force of His will and the gentleness of His rest and it is open for us to read and absorb. His word is the Bible and it is full of power; His Spirit lives in and within its precepts and pages. We have His Spirit, therefore we have become living Epistles.
God’s Word is the Bible. God wrote the entire Bible and everything in the Bible is not just a bunch of myths and stories like a lot of people think it is but in fact the Bible is true and everything that happened in the Bible is true. How can someone know that the Bible is true? There are three ways that you can know that the Bible is true. The first way that you can know that the Bible is true is because the Bible has certain instances where what is written in the Bible was well before scientists have actually proven it. In Isaiah 44:27-45:4, an Isaiah explains that the earth is round and in Jeremiah, Jeremiah explains that the earth is a spherical shape. This was written in the Bible around the year of 732 BC. The first scientist to prove that the world is round is Isaac Newton and he did about 3000 years later. (CITE WEBSITE) That is the first way that the Bible is true because of the simple fact that before scientists found that the world was round, it was written down by Isaiah and Jeremiah. The second way to know that the Bible is true is because the Bible contains prophecy. Not only does the Bible contain prophecy that was later fulfilled in the Bible itself, but there is prophecy that was found to be true in real human history. Jeremiah prophesied that Cyrus would conquer the city of Babylon, enter the city into open gates, and that he would dry up a river. All these things were actually true and Jeremiah prophesied that they would. This proves
b. James tells us that God used the Word of Truth to bring about our regeneration (Jas. 1:18).
