Creation Groans For Redemption!

Revelation 4:11 “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” Commentary: We need to examine the word ‘created’ used in this passage. We will look at two Greek foundational words. Words have creative power! God created everything by his word! Words are like pieces of a puzzle! You put the pieces all together and you get the big picture! A picture of God’s glory, power and his majesty! We marvel at his creation! His words speak of more than we can comprehend! He causes us to wonder and awe! Who can compare to him? The word ‘created’ has two root words with two different meanings depending where the word is used in scripture! This word can also mean two different things at the same time. The first meaning is created means God made something out of nothing! This is the opposite of evolution and Darwinism where this crazy man tries to link one form after another to try to prove his theory! What evolves out of nothing? Nothing! This first meaning is in reference to the creation of the earth! Now what about the creation of man? If you follow the six days of creation in Genesis Chapter one God creates the earth and all creatures before the 6th day when he makes man. So God created man out of the dust of the earth joined man to the Spirit of God! So Adam here was created out of pre-existent matter joined with God! Very different from other creatures and the earth! We are created in the Image of God! This gives us value! So funny Darwin digging through the dust yet he was dust! Just call ancestry.com or call 1-800-DUST! Our dust or flesh will perish but our Spirit is eternal! Jesus will give us a new body when he raises us from the dead! God through his word encourages to pursue life in the Spirit! Born again! Another interesting meaning for the word ‘created’ means the one who owns us! Possesses us and acquired us and purchased us! It is the idea of proprietorship through manufacture! We were bought with a price! With his blood on a Cross! Born again is a spiritual birth! Not a reincarnation as in Hinduism but a new creation through the incarnation of God becoming man! God took our dust or mortality and gave us immortality! Eternal! Immortal the only wise God! Time does not change us! Evolution is powerless to change us! Any evidence through history man is getting better? Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! You were created for God’s pleasure! When will we stop giving him anymore pain? The Cross was enough! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
