Worlds Framed?!

Post date: Nov 11, 2010 2:45:58 PM

"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.” (Heb 11:3).

The first chapter of Genesis makes it plain that God created the universe, including our heaven and earth, out of nothing. There was a time when there was no matter. God simply created all material substance by His word and formed it as He pleased.

Atheists, skeptics, and other so-called intellectuals believe that matter is eternal. Some believe that God and matter are the same thing. In other words they believe the universe is “God,” but the Bible teaches that God is a Person -- not just a mass of mindless matter. God is immaterial; He is a Spirit. (John 4:24).

How can one believe this? How can one literally believe what the Bible says about Creation? Only if God has given him faith. Without faith a man can no more understand this than a dog can understand a man’s world.
