Genesis 1:1-2 - In the beginning God

In the beginning God created... 'God created' - such simple words to say, but what huge impact on everything! God existed and he then created something out of nothing.

"Before the mountains were born
or you brought forth the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God."
Psalm 90:2

Before God created the world there wasn't nothing - there was God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit sharing an eternal relationship of love and glory! Wow!

(Here's a bit of grammar for you too... in this sentence 'God' is a plural word and 'created' is singular - this shows the plurality, yet oneness of God. And, in case you're interested, the word 'created' ['bra' in Hebrew] is only used in the Bible to speak of divine creation.)

This song has been going round my head in relation to this passage - it's by Phatfish and the chorus and last verse say:

In the beginning God

In the beginning God created

Life exploded

In the beginning

Right at the start there was the Word

And the Word was with God

Right at the start the Word was God

Yes the Word was with God

And through Him everything was made

Nothing was made without Him

In Him was life and that's the life

That's the light of all men.
