Before the Beginning of Time

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1).

God, eternally existing, created the heavens and the earth. The world didn’t just happen by chance, God created every detail with intention and purpose.  He created man and women to have fellowship with Him and with each other.  He created them to have dominion over all other living things, and He created them to be fruitful and multiply.  Beginning with Adam and Eve until the day Jesus returns, we were created with intention and purpose. 

Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.  In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved (Ephesians 1:4-6).

Even when we were separated from God from sin, God having chosen us in him created a way for us to be restored back to relationship with Him.  He predestined from the beginning adoption for His sons and daughters through Jesus Christ. In love, you were chosen before the beginning of time to be adopted as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ.  You were chosen!!

Thank You Lord, Amen.
