In The Beginning!

On our journey of getting to know Jesus intimately we’re going to start at the beginning.

In Genesis 1:1 In the beginning GOD created the heavens and the earth. In the beginning is the ” dateless past. ” Exactly when this is has not been revealed to us. It is infinity, something without limits. All we know is that a time came when GOD began His creative work.

Next we see that GOD was there creating. To accurately interpret the Bible we have to look at the language that was used. The word GOD in Hebrew is ELOHIM. This translated means GODS. Elohim is a plural noun which shows us that more than one person is indicated by the word GOD. Thus Elohim is not one GOD, but three Persons, one in unity. We have GOD, the Father; GOD the Son; and GOD, the Holy Spirit.

In Genesis 1:26 GOD said, Let Us (Father, Son and Holy Spirit ) make man in Our image, after Our likeness. We see again that the word GOD is Elohim, the Trinity, three Persons, one in unity. I hope you don’t get confused if this is new to you, but it is relevant to our understanding the Person of Jesus. He is GOD, the Son. Jesus was there in the beginning of creation.

As individual Persons each can be called GOD and together they can be spoken of as one GOD because of their perfect unity. They each have different functions but operate in unity.

I pray you get the revelation of how awesome this is. Jesus came to earth as a Baby, but He was there when the creation of the earth was happening. Until next time.
