Hi Blurtlatan!
Hope you are all doing good?
It is my delight to bring to us this topic today "The Beginning of Beginnings".
This is one of the thoughts that is beyond the scope of human but can only be explained by the inspiration of the Spirit of Him that knows all things before their existence.
Many theologies, philosophers and scientists have tried in their human knowledge to explain this, but they can't because it takes the acknowledgment of Him that was and is and is to come to reveal this to us that are interested to know.
So, don't be quick to conclude the topic without getting the full points of the post.
In respect to our different religion, permit me to use the "Holy Bible" for clarity in this matter, but Why the "Holy Bible"?
I prefer the Holy Bible because it is the Book of books that has the record of every truth right from the beginning to the end of the world and eternity - Genesis to Revelation. Though we will look into it in our subsequent topic next time for more explanations.
Come with me let's go to where and when it all began:
GENESIS
Genesis just as it meaning is "the Beginning" so it does give us the record of "the beginning of all things (Creation)" Starting from Heaven and Earth and everything in it including Man - Gens. 1-2.
For the purpose of our topic - "The Beginning of Beginnings " let's take Genesis 1:1 for our focus text :
"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth" .
Meditating on the text, you will see the "Beginning of Beginnings" after the first 3 Words "God" before "the heaven and the earth" being mentioned.
This shows that the beginning is not "the heaven and the earth " but "God". John 1:1 made it more clear by saying :
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
John in better revelation by the Holy Ghost stated it very well by saying that the "Beginning" was not "the heaven and the earth" but... the "Word" who is "God".
Hebrews 1:3 also adds by saying :
... the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."
So, all these affirms that there was a "Beginning of Beginnings - The Creator of Creations, " the Him that was before the beginning of "Time" without Him was no "Time of Beginning" until He started the "Time" by His Word of "Let there be Light" that shines forth everything we see.
Since there is no Creation without a Creator.
The Creator that made the Creation of "the heaven and the earth and all that is therein (Ps. 24:1-2) is the Personality all should know and acknowledge as God.
With this, we will be looking at the next Post on the Topic - "GOD".
Do have a Blessed Day!.
