God's attributes consists of His Omnipotence,
His Omniscience, and His Omnipresence but
first of all is His Father-nature.

It is the reason for creation.
"Now to him that is of power to stablish
you according to my gospel, and the
preaching of Jesus Christ, according to
the revelation of the mystery, which was
kept secret since the world began,"
Romans 16:25

"But we speak the wisdom of God in a
mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which
God ordained before the world unto our
glory:" 1 Corinthians 2:7

Man was the reason for creation. Man
was chosen for sonship, then God created
this universe to be a home for him.

"According as he hath chosen us in him
before the foundation of the world, that
we should be holy and without blame
before him in love:
Having predestinated us unto the
adoption of children by Jesus Christ to
himself, according to the good pleasure
of his will,"
Ephesians 1:4-5

Before God created the world, in His plan
for man, He marked him out for sonship.
Man was to hold the place of a son in the
Father God's love. He also was the answer
to the Father's desire for children.
Ephesians 3:14-15
"For this cause I bow my knees unto the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Of whom the whole family in heaven and

earth is named,"

It is natural that the heart of the Father
God would long for sons and daughters.
His passion resulted in His creating of a
man who would walk with Him as His
child.
Jesus and the Holy Spirit was with God the
Father in the beginning creating the heavens
and the earth.

In eternity God has been a Father. He has a
Father nature. He has a love and desire for
children.
Matthew 28:19 "Jesus came and spake unto
them saying. . .'Go ye therefore, and teach
all nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Ghost:. . .'"

Here Jesus Himself revealed the Trinity
being the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
One of the times that the Trinity was seen
by human senses was in Matthew 3:13-17;
when Jesus was baptized.
The Holy Spirit
appeared in the form of a
dove, descending
upon Jesus, while the Father
spoke in a voice from heaven,
"This is my beloved Son
in whom I am well pleased."
Israel didn't know who made up the Trinity.

Not until Jesus, the Living Word, was
manifested in the flesh, did man know
that the Trinity consisted of the Father,
Son and Holy Spirit.

In His ministry of teaching, Jesus revealed
God the Father.
The Trinity [God in 3 persons, the Father, the
Son and the Holy Spirit] is hidden through
out the Old Testament.

Many Jews who have come to Jesus Christ as
their Saviour have said that one of the reasons
causing them to realize that Jesus is their
Messiah, was that they saw the Trinity hidden
in the Old Covenant.
"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." Genesis 1:2

"Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are
created: and thou renewest the face of the
earth." Psalm 104:30

These show the works of the Holy Spirit in
creation.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the
Word was with God, and the Word was
God.
The same was in the beginning with
God.
All things were made by him; and without

him was not any thing made that was
made." John 1:1-3

"For by him were all things created, that
are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible
and invisible, whether they be thrones, or
dominions, or principalities, or powers: all
things were created by him, and for him:
And he is before all things, and by him all

things consist." Colossians 1:16-17

The Word of God shows that Christ had a
major part in creation.
Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth."

In Hebrew, the word 'God' is 'Elohim'. This
word is plural, and shows us that the Trinity

[God the Father,God the Son and God the
Holy Spirit] was at work in the creation.
The earth is the reason for the universe.

Man is the reason for the earth.

God is the reason for man.

God desired to create man for Sonship.
He wanted [and still wants] many Sons.

Sons include daughters. There is neither
male nor female with Him. It could be

translated children. We are all to be the
children of God the Father.
God stored up treasures of wealth for man.

He filled the earth with deposits of gold and
silver, iron and copper and many metals,
chemicals and forces.

He covered it with mountains, valleys, rivers
and streams, plateaus and prairies; with all
kinds of animals, plants, flowers, fruits and

vegetables.

He knew man's needs because He created
him and he is the only creature who can use
and enjoy them.
Isaiah 45:18, "For thus saith Jehovah that
created the heavens, the God that formed
the earth and made it, formed it to be

inhabited."

So here, the Bible says that God created it
to be inhabited (lived on) by man. When
God created the earth, He met every need
that man would have in his life upon earth.
Only when God created man in His own image
and put him on earth was there a reason for
creating this universe.

God enabled man with the ability to enjoy the
beauty of His workmanship and to use its
resources.
Man was the goal of God's creation. He was
the last and the highest of His works.

The earth has no reason for existing outside
of man.

Unconscious nature can't enjoy its beauty,
think or use what it produces.
This earth is so small that a thousand of
them could be lost in the sun yet it is the
reason for the universe.

Man is the reason for the earth. Genesis
1 gives the account of Creation. It is a series
of acts by God. These creative acts end with
the creation of man.

When man was created God rested because
He was finished, not tired.

The planets
are in the
heavens to give us

seasons, to be signs,
and to be servants

always ministering
to the earth.


The heavens are the
earth's timepiece. No
watch or clock that
man has made can ever
be as perfect.

But God who knows the path of the stars,
knows that every star, sun, or planet, will
pass a certain point in the great schedule
of time.
The tides of the oceans and seas are influ-
enced by the heavenly bodies; also heat and
cold, drought and storms.

Storms can be predicted for certain areas
and localities by the position and influence
of certain planets.

Frost and heat waves are predicted months
ahead by the sure knowledge of planetary
positions.
The sun is about ninety-three million miles
from the earth, yet it causes climate conditions
of heat, light, rain and winds, which makes the
planet able to nourish vegetable, animal and
human life.

This little earth with everything on it, floats

around the sun completely protected by its
atmosphere.

The bible says, "To let them be for signs and

for season."



In Genesis
1:14-19
the earth is the
reason for all the
heavenly
bodies in space.

Science doesn't deny the fact that there
isn't
a planet, sun, moon, or star in the
universe
which doesn't have influence
on the earth.
Our earth is so small comparing to the size
and number of the heavenly bodies, and is
the only planet known to have human life.

The first chapter of Genesis tells that the
earth holds a place in the plan and purpose
of God.
The Bible is God's revelation to us (mankind).
We have no other way to know Him or con-
tact Him.

We have to go to that revelation in order to
find out what He has told us and for His
reason for creating us.
God desiring man to know Him, has put His
thoughts and purposes into words which man
can see with his senses.

1 Corinthians 2:12-13, "But we receive not the
spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from
God: that we might know the things that were
freely given to us of God. Which things also we
speak, not in words which man's wisdom
teacheth, but which the spirit teacheth:
combining spiritual things with spiritual words."
Man cannot find God by himself. God has to
reveal Himself to him and He has. God has
given a revelation of Himself to man.

He had to give the revelation on man's level so
that man could contact Him. This is called
'Revelation Knowledge.' We get it throught our
recreated spirits from the Word of God.
God is a spirit, and man has no contact with
Him. In his own spirit nature, man cannot
contact God. The only contact he has with the
universe or reality, is through his senses (like
sight, hearing, feeling, taste and smell).

He has learned alot about physical nature, but
he had not been able to find God personally or
the reason God created him.
Because man wasn't able to find a reason for
creation, he became skeptical. Science became
atheistic giving us a mechanical explanation of
the universe.

As scientists continue to understand it more,
they are becoming God-conscious. They are
realizing that there has to be an intellegent
Creator.

But science hasn't been able to find Him, or
His purpose. But they are working with just a
sense knowledge. . . .knowledge that comes
only from the five senses.
The purpose for creation seems to be to
provide a suitable environment for mankind.

If mankind were taken our of creation, it with
its resources and beauty has no reason to
exist.

If God created the universe as a home for man,
He must have had a reason for creating man.

Down through history, man has looked in vain,
for the reason of his existence.
We as human beings are faced with an un-
explained creation that we are a part of.

This creation and it's fixed laws, reveal to
us a Master Designer. This Master designed
creation to fulfill a purpose, the reason it
exists.
