The Word, water and spirit are factors in: | ||||
|
The Creation of the Earth |
(John 1:1-3 KJV) "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. {2} The same was in the beginning with God. {3} All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." (Isa 45:18 KJV) For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; 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: I am the LORD; and there is none else. 1 (Gen 1:1-10 KJV) "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. {2} 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 {3} And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. {4} And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. {5} And God called the light day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. {6} And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. {7} 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. {8} And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. {9} And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. {10} And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good." (2 Pet 3:5 KJV) "For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:" | |||
|
The Making of Adam |
(Gen 1:26-27, 31 KJV) "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. {27} So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. {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." (Gen 2:7 KJV) "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." (Job 33:4 KJV) "The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life." (Job 10:9 KJV 2) "Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?" (Mark 10:6) "But , God made them male and female." | |||
|
The Deluge |
(Gen 6:17 KJV) "And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die." (2 Pet 3:6 KJV) "Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:" (Gen 8:1 KJV) "And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;" (1 Pet 3:20 KJV 3) "Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water." | |||

The Birth of Humans |
Considering our physical birth -- the command (word) had already been given to be fruitful, multiply and replenish (fill) the earth. (Gen 1:28 KJV) "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and 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." While in our mother's womb, we are in amniotic fluid (water) and sac. After the water breaks and out of the womb, we have to breathe (spirit) to be able to live in this mundane world. | |||
|
The Born Again Experience |
The Word, water and spirit are not only factors in the natural birth but also the spiritual. Consider our new spiritual birth before we can enter into God's kingdom. We first receive the Word. (John 1:12-14 KJV) "But as many as received him, 4 to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: {13} Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. {14} And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." (John 3:3-7 KJV) "Jesus answered and said unto him (Nicodemus), Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. {4} Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? {5} Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. {6} That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. {7} Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again." | |||

If you have spiritual discernment (1 Cor 2:9-14) you will see this message from the scripture, and that is, the heavens, the earth and man all had a beginning, which happened during the six days of creation around six thousand years ago (Bible Time Table). The LORD commanded and the heavens were created (Psa 148:1-5); God said (Gen 1:3 5), by the Word (the seed was planted, it germinated and was ready to bring forth) of the LORD God (Psa 33:6 6) the heavens and earth were created and made. He created and formed the heavens and earth the way it pleased Him. What is so interesting in the description is that when "...God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear" (Gen 1:10 KJV) it resembled a birth. And out of the dust of the ground the LORD God formed the first man (Gen 2:7). The Word, water and Spirit are factors in the creation of the earth and man. They did not evolve nor did they exist eons ago. Either you believe in the six days of creation or evolution. You cannot believe both. The Gap and Day-Age theories are germs from the theory of evolution, which can be called a state religion. There is no written history or proof of their theories. Either you believe the Bible or believe man's inventions or should I say imagination. | ||||

Fire is a factor in: | ||||

Purging Our Life |
(Luke 3:16-17 KJV) "John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire: {17} Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable." | |||
|
Ridding the Earth of Rebels |
(Mat 25:31-32 KJV) "When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: {32} And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:" (Rev 21:8 KJV) "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." | |||
|
Purging the Heavens and Earth |
(2 Peter 3:8 KJV) "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." (2 Pet 3:10-13 KJV) "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief 7 in the night; 8 in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. {11} Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, {12} Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? {13} Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, 9 wherein dwelleth righteousness." | |||
