How Did This Universe You Live In Come Into Existence?
How did the house or apartment building you live in come into existence? Someone made it, of course. Right? That is only common sense. How, then, did the universe you live in come into existence? Someone had to have made it too. That, too, is only common sense.
Accordingly, Genesis 1:1 tells you, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” How did the universe you live in come into existence? God created it. Time and the history of this universe began with God’s creative activities. Before that there was nothing, only God himself from eternity. And then he began creating the heavens and the earth.
Hebrews 11:3 tells you how God created the heavens and the earth. “. . .the universe has been created by the spoken word of God, so that what is seen has come about not from things that are visible.” The universe and everything in it was made by the power of God’s spoken Word. God said this or that should come into existence, and it happened! And the visible things in the universe that you see did not come about from other things; rather, they were created by God out of nothing. Verses 3, 6, 9, 11, 14, 20, 24 of Genesis 1 tell you how God formed everything he made. He simply said, “Let there be,” and all the things that you see in the universe came into being by the power of his Word!
How long did it take God to create all the things that you see in your world around you? Not long! Surely not millions of years! Exodus 20:11 states, “For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them. Then he rested on the seventh day.” God made everything in the universe in just six, twenty-four days!
So how did the universe you live in come into existence? God created it and everything in it out of nothing in just six days! Amazing! Indeed, God is amazing!
