Hi Georg,Interesting thought but I think the angels were created, not begotten and not sharing in the nature of God, they are not the same “kind” as God. I believe they are created heavenly beings and they were created through the Son, not born of the Son. IMOKathi

Hi there Jeremy,Welcome, I am glad you are here! The same thing happened to me about 16 years ago.

Hi t8,I agree. I would suggest however, that the term “Most High God” would by definition be uncreated and infinite, without beginning. Not simply “God” be that by definition. I say that because if the One that always was, reproduced, then there would be another one like the first except the reproduced one would have a beginning and the original…[Read more]

Hi Georg,Gen 1:11-1211 Then God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind with seed in them”; and it was so. 12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it…[Read more]

Hi Irene,Yes, I am aware of different translations. I lean on NASB because it has the reputation of being more literal.I think that “the earth began” could mean began as a formed established earth. Remember, it wasn't established until it got its name on day three.All these different translations and ideas just keep it interesting

Nick, Irene and Georg,You are rewriting the Bible and adding to it IMO. The Bereans searched SCRIPTURES to see if what was being said was true. If we search scriptures to verify what you say to be true we can not find “re”create, or “became formless and void.” We do find that a day to GOD is but a thousand years so the six days in Genesis may…[Read more]

Nick,Yes GOD was before Genesis…He always existed and had no beginning, the earth didn't always exist, the “Word” did not always exist. Words have origins.You asked “was the Word with God in the beginning?” In the beginning of what Nick? Again, the beginning of “what” was before Genesis in your opinion?
