Anyway, here is a few more things.
Creation (Geneses 1-2)
As the book begins we see these words untarnished by the ages, In the beginning God creasted the heaven and the earth. In these few simple words we have the Bible declaration of the origin of this material universe. God called all things into being by the word of His power. He spoke and worlds were framed (Hebrews 11:3).
Know this, God created man in His own image to have fellowship with Himself. Man cut himself off from God by sin. It is only when sin is removed that we can have fellowship again. This is why Jesus Christ came to this earth: that He might bare our sins in His own body on the tree ( 1Pet 2:24). Read in 1 John how sin keeps us not only from fellowship with God but with one another. First John 1:9 tells us what we can do to have a restored fellowship.
More later...

It also says, "In the beginning God created.
No debate, just a statement of fact that Elohim created it.
What beginning? The beginning as a reference point for God's relationship with his creation.
Just some thoughts.
