In The Beginning God
Genesis 1:1-3
In the beginning God
created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void;
and darkness was upon the face of the deep.
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said,
Let there be light: and there was light.
Genesis 1:26
And God said,
Let us make man in our image,
after our likeness:
and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air,
and over the cattle,
and over all the earth,
and over every creeping thing
that creepeth upon the earth.
Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.
Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God
formed man of the dust of the ground,
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living soul.
Psalm 33:6
By the word of the LORD
were the heavens made;
and all the host of them
by the breath of his mouth.
John 1:1-3
1 In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him;
and without him
was not any thing made that was made.
John 1:14
And the Word was made flesh,
and dwelt among us,
(and we beheld his glory,
the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)
full of grace and truth.
Romans 1:20
For the invisible things of him
from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made,
even his eternal power and Godhead;
so that they are without excuse:
Ephesians 4:1-6
I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord,
beseech you that ye walk worthy
of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
2 With all lowliness and meekness,
with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit
in the bond of peace.
4 There is one body, and one Spirit,
even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6One God and Father of all,
who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Colossians 1:10-20
That ye might walk worthy of the Lord
unto all pleasing,
being fruitful in every good work,
and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11 Strengthened with all might,
according to his glorious power,
unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12 Giving thanks unto the Father,
which hath made us meet to be partakers
of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Who hath delivered us
from the power of darkness,
and hath translated us
into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14In whom we have redemption
through his blood,
even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created,
that are in heaven, and that are in earth,
visible and invisible,
whether they be thrones, or dominions,
or principalities, or powers:
all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things,
and by him all things consist.
18 And he is the head of the body,
the church:
who is the beginning,
the firstborn from the dead;
that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father
that in him should all fulness dwell;
20And, having made peace through the blood of his cross,
by him to reconcile all things unto himself;
by him, I say, whether they be things in earth,
or things in heaven.
Hebrews 1:1-12
God, who at sundry times
and in divers manners
spake in time past
unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days
spoken unto us by his Son,
whom he hath appointed heir of all things,
by whom also he made the worlds;
3Who being the brightness of his glory,
and the express image of his person,
and upholding all things
by the word of his power,
when he had by himself purged our sins,
sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4Being made so much better than the angels,
as he hath by inheritance
obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 For unto which of the angels
said he at any time,
Thou art my Son,
this day have I begotten thee?
And again, I will be to him a Father,
and he shall be to me a Son?
6 And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world,
he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 And of the angels he saith,
Who maketh his angels spirits,
and his ministers a flame of fire.
8But unto the Son he saith,
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever:
a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness,
and hated iniquity;
therefore God, even thy God,
hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness
above thy fellows.
10And, Thou, Lord,
in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth;
and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
11They shall perish;
but thou remainest;
and they all shall wax old
as doth a garment;
12 And as a vesture
shalt thou fold them up,
and they shall be changed:
but thou art the same,
and thy years shall not fail.
Hebrews 11:3
Through faith
we understand that the worlds
were framed by the word of God,
so that things which are seen
were not made of things which do appear.
Revelation 4:11
Thou art worthy, O Lord,
to receive glory and honour and power:
for thou hast created all things,
and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
