HOW THINGS BEGAN

What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see. God gave his approval to people in days of old because of their faith. By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen.

Hebrews 11:1-3

The author of Hebrews has the answer for those who offer alternative theories (Big Bang, Evolution) to how the world began. In a nutshell he says it comes down to faith.

The Bible says, “In the beginning God…” You and I weren’t there and neither were the evolutionist. They offer theories. Believers offer their faith in God’s Word. “By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command…”

Stop arguing with unproven and un-provable theories. Teach your children God’s Word and explain to them that faith is the key to gaining God’s approval. “God gave his approval to people in days of old because of their faith.” He has not changed.
