THE BEGINNING |
||
| INTRODUCTION |
THE CREATOR, whom we call God, came into being by Himself. He is the SwayamBhu. People call Him so .No scientists has any other satisfying answer for the question: how did you come [ps 148:5]in to existence? .Even the wisest, the ablest, the foremost scientist himself stands before Him mute and wonder-struck afraid of asking Him, “how did you come into existence, when was it, and where was it, where were you and so on. God was the first that came into being before the existence of any thing in the universe. There was nothing before Him. There was a time when nothing else existed .That God existed in a wonderful TRINITY ie One in THREE PERSONS. HE can exist also in mere-oneness and threeness too.The second was speaking for the other two and so he was named as the Word ,the spokesman, who speaks on behalf of the three. His word has the creative power. Psa 32:8; 148:5Scientists name it as the BIG BANG. The third was spreading to reach even the end of the earth in no time on behalf of the other two and He was therefore named as Pneuma which means the (SPREADING) Spirit like the air. The air too has the quality of spreading. All the three united thus became ONE most wonderful , all- knowing, almighty, and present everywhere. All the Three united become a wonderful, unique Almighty one. They are thus able to create anything by themselves. No other creature in the world is so powerful to create new lives of different DNAs independent of each other. In Genesis we see that wonderful creation work. If any one tries to argue, “no, a living thing or cell came into existence by itself" it will be a foolish statement. But, God with all His wisdom and ability came into existence by Himself. There is not a second (person) like Him. The three occupied a very small space in the wide space of the universe just as an egg is seen with the petty chicken embryo inside. Then the God expanded His making bigger and wider as we see the universe today. The Triune God sat in the extreme north of the universe circle of which we read as the mount of the congregation of the three in the north. That became the Sanctuary of God in the later years as we read in Eze. 28:14 and Isaiah 14 onwards. The three in Godhead CREATED using their unparallel wisdom, intelligence, engineering , mathematical accuracy etc, the world in all its fullness as we see today : with the starry heaven up heaven, the entire earth, brought into existence everything that is seen today in the earth, the sea below, the hell in side in the bottom abdomen of the earth as we read in Numbers 16: 30- 33 and the innumerable planets up above the high heavens. It also exhibits the entire scientific and mathematical accuracy, the engineering skill, its notable architecture, their orderly movement while circling, everything keeping its own appointed path with the earth as its epicenter, the burning sun far above spreading its light and heat around and deep down on the earthen globe upon the various lives down in the sky, and up in the sea up above too. Gen 1 mention about the water above. There was a time when nothing existed except the Almighty God; and He existed in a wonderful manner. The mystery of His coming into existence will be ever be a wonder until man reaches the heavenly realm in the way the present multitude of the heavenly angels came into existence in the higher regions of the celestial realm. The upper heavenly region was divided into the 1st heaven, the IInd heaven and the IIIrd heaven and, then the third airy region. In the lowest region the earth was created with the fiery hell in its belly. The Triune God made the highest or the third heaven His office viz. the mount of the congregation, like the parliament house of any country. There were a huge number of angels employed in various heavenly duties connected to the Mt. of congregation and the other heavenly and earthly and hell regions. The head of the angels in the mount of the congregation was named as Lucifer with thousands of angels under him. Everything went on very well for a number of unknown years.
