Thoughts on Creation



I was just thinking about creation as my son Jimmy was talking about God as the creator:
1. The Holy Spirit hovered over the deep, energizing the raw materials for the creation...
2. God SPOKE and all things came into being. He used his WORD.
3. Jesus is the great LOGOS, the WORD who was there at creation.
4. When God created man, he didn't use words. He "formed" man with his own two hands. Then he breathed into man with his spirit.

HOW COOL! Man is totally different from all other creation. God used words to create everything else, but he used his own hands and breathe to create man. This is why murder, abortion, gossip, abuse, violence and hate are so wrong. These sins attack God's highest creation, man and woman, which he created in His image.
