The Beginning and The End

In The Beginning

 If God created the world; as the Bible plainly states: How long did it take God to create the World?

This question has been debated & theorized about for thousands of years.

Cosmologists insist that because of the vastness of space and the relative speed of light; that the universe must be billions of years old. In fact the great vastness of Space is due to the fact that God “stretched” out the heavens; and in so doing created the appearance of eons of light years!

Many theologians will suggest that the world is approximately 6-10,000 years old; and that God created it in just 6 days!

Still other commentators suggest that there was a Gap between the initial creation process and the finished product. Some even support the Big Bang theory and a type of Theistic Evolutionary oversight over a long period of time.

But all of these educated guesses miss the mark entirely. They do not take fully into account what the “Creator” himself has said about how long it took to make the world, and all the things that exist!

The simple answer is: It took God absolutely “NO TIME” whatsoever to make all that exists in our universe! Yes; you read that right, it took God No Time at all! None!

Psalms 33:6-10 indicates that by the mere power of the Word of God, and upon his audible pronouncements, it came into existence!

Hebrews 11:3 indicates that God did not even need pre-existing matter to produce his designs!

Oh, I know full well that Genesis One conveys the idea that God created the world in 6 days. But these 24 hour creation-modules that would later become designated as “Days” were pre-designed for mankind’s affinity for judging time.

Time did not exist until God finished his great 6-Phased construction project! In fact, God is beyond time and space; and in reality invented our concept of dimensional time! God was not, and still is not confined to our dimension of time-progression, distance, nor even to our universe of matter and energy!

In fact, everything God brought into existence in his grand Construction Project was designed upon completion to be a perfect habitat and environment for mankind to Live in.

Isaiah 45:18 For this saith the Lord that created the heavens, (space) God himself that formed the Earth, and made it, he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited! (By man)

Only the Earth was so prepared! And God did all this outside of TIME!

Then just before God created Man, and planted him upon Earth, he formed the Sun, the Moon & the stars for Light, and also placed them perfectly for enabling the calculation of TIME by man.

Sir Issac Newton, the great scientist; once postulated; “the reason I know there is a Creator, is because “Motion” has been imputed into everything in the cosmos.” Everything moves with great precision and can be calculated in its circuits.

Thus, when God completed his 6-stage pronouncements of Space, Matter, Light, habitat for men and provided the Stars; he stepped back; inspected it all for accuracy and goodness; then He gave it all MOTION, MOTION! Motion begat Time! Then TIME began! Time has been ticking ever since; and Time will continue until God stops it!

How long did it take God to create the world?

NO TIME AT ALL / HE’s GOD! He dwells in the non-dimensional realm known as ETERNITY!

Perhaps; you should consider the hope of enjoying Eternity with God, when your time on earth expires.

Rev 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

BedfordBaptist Church

I will be presenting a special prophecy message at Bedford Baptist Church in Bedford, Kentucky on an upcoming Sunday night April 6, 2025 (7:00pm EST) 

My topic in focus for the evening; “The Perpetual Hatred of Israel” will be taken from Ezekiel 35:5:

“Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:” 

Why is antisemitism so rampant in our world today? Why is there a world wide maniacal scheme to wipe Israel off the map? Who is perpetuating this venom of Hatred against Israel?

How close are we to the “Time of Jacobs Trouble?”

This ages old demonic madness has its roots in “The Perpetual Hatred of Israel.”

Bedford Baptist Church is located in Trimble County at 1425 US Highway 42E, Bedford, Kentucky.

The Parable of the Good Samaritan

The Parable of The Good Samaritan 

FOJ: In Jesus simple, but wonderful parable recorded in the tenth chapter of Luke about the Good Samaritan, the story highlights the actions and or virtues of six different characters:

1) the Lawyer

2) the Priest

3) the Levite

4) the Thieves

5) the Good Samaritan

* The sixth character who is so often overlooked is the poor Wounded man himself!

1) The Lawyer never so much as even recognized the wounded man as a man.

2) The Priest purposely avoided the wounded man; passing by him on the far side, as he was more concerned about his own piety and purity.

3) The Levite; like the Priest also avoided any personal contact with the wounded man; as he considered himself too valuable to risk being physically defiled.

4) The Good Samaritan of course is considered to be the hero of Jesus parable because he personally tended to the wounded man’s physical needs. 

5) Then, there is also the Thieves in the story. It is apparent that there were two, or maybe even more than two thieves. They not only robbed the poor man; but beat him half to death! 

(The thieves obviously are symbolical of Satan and his evil cohorts in this world)

This brings me back to the Sixth character in Jesus parable; “the poor wounded man himself.”

(The poor wounded man, left robbed by the thieves to die represents a lost and dying humanity in an evil infested world)

* It is of course obvious that the Good Samaritan is called GOOD; because he took time and care to tend to the wounded man’s PHYSICAL needs!

Now let me ask this very poignant question: “Of the other five characters in this story; who do you suppose did, by far the most Harm to the development of the poor wounded mans Spiritual needs?”

Answer: The Priest and the Levite! (the two most religious of the whole bunch)

Moral of the story: Never let it be the case; that as a Christian, that we not only fail to be a spiritual witness; but that we allow ourselves to become a major harm or stumbling block to the salvation of a poor lost Soul!

Why Does it Seem that the Second Coming of Jesus is taking so long?

Is the Second Coming of Jesus Being Delayed?

I am occasionally asked why it seems that the second coming of Jesus seems as though he might be tarrying long , or that his coming is being delayed. 

In actuality, the second coming of Jesus is not being delayed; or replanned in anyway. His return is a “Set”event (Psalms 102:13) on the providential timeline of God and is therefore right on schedule. 

II Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack (delaying) concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

The fact of the matter is; there is in this Last Days, more “Lost or unsaved” people on our planet than there has ever been in world history!

This unfortunate reality about the Last Days is, and has always been foreknown by God! 

That is the reason for his long suffering patience, to simply allow a timely span for the gospel of salvation in the Church Age to be fully availed to Earths people before He executes judgment.
