Genesis - In the beginning

Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
Genesis 1:2 "The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters..."

Interestingly, there are 101 things that could have happened between verses 1 and 2. So the first book in the Bible 'Genesis' we are reading, is not really 'the beginning', but the beginning of human race. Does that really matter? Perhaps not. Because God is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, who is and who was and who is to come (Rev 1:8)! God is not controlled by time for He created time (He created and made all things, by the way) and He lives in eternity! So it does not really matter what happened, but Who you know!

That reminds me to dig out my notes about evolution, historical facts about the earth and its species including human kind, and many others that will help defend my faith. Faith is not build on imagination, but facts! Hey, God is not a figment of your imagination, a pie in the sky & a sweet bye & bye.. Neither is He a fictitious imaginary figure that we conjure up at the back of our mind. God is a real person! Check out Answers in Genesis for more mind-blowing truths!
