Chapter 2
IF THERE IS GOD
DID HE CREATE ALL OF THIS?
Genesis 1:1, says, “In the beginning God, (אֱלהִים, Elohim), created the heavens and the earth. Verse 2. And the earth was a formless and desolate emptiness, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Verse 3. Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. Verse 4. God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. Verse 5. God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening and there was morning, one day.” (etcetera).
So, yes. God, Elohim, created all of this.
I will say again, since there is no credible way to deny that GOD IS, then I will continue to base our thesis on that fact that GOD IS.
(NOTE: If you want to pursue a study on the existence of God, please do so. I would recommend studying the Bible with a good concordance. Also, find some serious theological studies which strive to fairly examine the existence of God and the manifest evidence that God exists. (Sort of like quarks and dark matter. You can’t prove them experientially, but you know they exist by what occurs).
