FOREWORD

It is interesting to note, being that God made man a free moral agent, and Just a little lower than the angels, that man at times very seldom take the time to Acknowledge his creator. This being a truth, God made man to glorify him, worship Him, to adore him, to fear him, and above all, to honor him. These words could never really give the justice of God’s omnipotence, neither, can man imagine his Constant being. Having said that, we will now explore the question, which also is The title of this book. We pray that God will reveal himself to the reader of these Pages, in his own way as he so chooses.

ABSTRACT

CHAPTER ONE

IN THE BEGINNING

In the book of Genesis chapter one verse one, In the beginning GOD created the heaven and the earth, Verse two, And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of GOD moved upon the face of the waters. Verse three, And GOD said, let there be light: and there was light. (The first day: light diffused.) Verse four, And GOD saw the light, that it was good: and GOD divided the light from darkness. Verse five, And GOD called the light day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day." (KING JAMES, Scofield Reference Bible, 1909)

The second day: vapour above, water below. Verse six, And GOD said, let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. Verse seven, And GOD made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. Verse eight, And GOD called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. I think the reader has received the message, only GOD could have created the earth HEAVEN and MAN.

Moving ahead to the sixth day: (the creation of man) Gen, 2:7, 21-23 chapter one verse 26: And GOD said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Verse 27: So GOD created man in his own image, in the image of GOD created he him; male and female created he them. It is pertinent to notice that, GOD, when he made man, he made male and female and notice verse 28; "And GOD blessed them, and GOD said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. (KING JAMES VERSION OF THE HOLY BIBLE, SCOFIELD REFERENCE BIBLE, 1909)

I would like to challenge the reader to tell me, how can man replenish the earth without a female. It is important for us to understand the wisdom of GOD. Look at Lev, 18:22, Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Verse 23: Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion. Verse 24: Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you: One might say, well that is the old testament, I am glad you might have said that. Take a look at Romans 1:24, Wherefore GOD also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves."

Verse 25, Who changed the truth of GOD into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. Verse, 26: For this cause GOD gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature. Verse 27, And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet." (KING JAMES VERSION OF THE HOLY BIBLE, SCOFIELD REFERENCE BIBLE, 1909).

Verse 28: And even as they did not like to retain GOD in their knowledge, GOD gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Verse 31, Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Verse 32 Who knowing the judgement of GOD, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

REFLECTIONS

CHAPTER TWO

THE CREATION OF MAN

GOD in his wisdom gave man all of the ingriedience to survive in the world, which he created for them. Verse 31, And GOD saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Chapter two verse one, "Thus the Heavens and the earth were finished,
