Genesis - Order out of Chaos Part 1 - Notes

 The seven steps in God's creation.

Days one and three rectify without form. He divides light from darkness.

Day one and four go together 

Day two and five go together

Divide, fill, divide, fill, divide fill.  What God wants out of us is to separate from the world. Come out of her my people, separate and divide. We divide out and then we get filled with the Holy Spirit and the word of God. 

The Memra is distinct from God but is God

The Memra is the agent of creation Psalm 33. By the Memra the Heavens were made...

The Memra is the agent of physical and spiritual salvation

The means by which God signs His promise

The Memra is the logos of the New Testament

The Memra is Jesus but the Rabbis could not admit it: The Logos.

God is the Architect, Jesus initiates and the Holy Spirit puts the energy into creation.

John 1. In the beginning was the Logos/Memra...and without Him nothing was made...that life was the LIGHT of men and the light shines in darkness....

Isaiah 60:1. The light of the world would illuminate Israel.

What is this light? The Shekinah glory of a special light for creation.

Why create light before the sun, before the luminaries? Yahweh is not  dependent on the sun and the moon. 

And God saw.

El Rohi, the all seeing God, the God that is omniscient.

The seeing God. Whatever you do in the dark will come out in the light.

The seeing God: You are doing all these things in the sight of The Lord.

Light is good. Darkness is NOT good.

Light is a metaphor for revelation, revelatory information that only comes from Yahweh. 

God is dividing good revelation from the darkness.

I am the only one that can give you the right information and I am putting boundaries around it by separating light from darkeness.

Isaiah 5. Woe unto anyone who calls evil good, and good, evil.

It is good if it benefits mankind.

Only God can establish reality, this is good, this is bad.

The eternal God does not change and it is foolish for anyone to challenge God in what is good and bad.

God sets the boundaries, and they are fixed. 

Darkness to light, chaos to order. The day starts with night and then it works into the light/morning. 

God stands always facing the light, as He is creating, the darkness is behind Him and He is always facing the light. Always coming out of darkness into the light, looking for the dawn of the new morning. 

Jesus is the Morning Star.

Yom/day occurs 290 times. 24 hour days.

Young earth evidence.

  • Red blood cells found in dinosaur bones tissue.
  • The magnetic field is dying <10,000 years old.
  • Radioactive release of Helium is going on. If earth is billions of years, all would be escaped. 
  • Supernova explosions only stage one and two. 
  • The moon recedes from it's orbit one inch per year. The moon would have touched the earth.
  • Meteoric dust: no major layer of dust. The moon dust was only about an inch of dust.
  • salt in the water. If we are old, the oceans would be very salty due to erosion. 
  • Rapid formation of geological strata. Rapid deposit of mud and sand and instant fossilizing. 
  • Upright fossilized and petrified trees in fossilized layers.
  • Erosion of the continents, they would all be eroded. 
  • Dinosaur tracks, allover the planet you can see dinosaur tracks running in a herd trying to get away from something: water. Dinosaur graveyards in water.

If you don't take genesis literally, you are opening the door to immorality. 

If you reinterpret days, what will stop you from redefining anything else? Marriage, life, etc.

Application. Matt 6:32...if therefore the light that is in you darkness, how great is that darkness?

Eyes are the filter of how you see reality. If your eye is good, if your eye filters reality through the word of God, your whole body will be full of light. 

If your filter does not use scripture at all, you are gonna act in darkness. How bad could you act?

Are you filtering reality properly?
