Bible Minute: In the Beginning

In Genesis 1:1 we read that in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. The first sentence of the Bible brings us into the presence of the living and true God. This verse is the door through which we enter into the rest of the Bible. If we can believe this verse, we will have no trouble believing anything else that is written in these precious pages. In Revelation 4:11 we find out why God created the heaven and the earth. "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." And for us to please God, we must have faith. And faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
