Seeing The Invisible God

"For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse" (Romans 1:20). Wait a minute! How can something that is invisible be clearly seen? Oh, by creation. We can understand the Godhead by studying His creation.

Well when we think of creation, we think of Genesis 1, right?  "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1).  How does this help us to understand the Godhead?  Well first of all the Godhead is made up of three persons: God the Father; God the Son; and God the Holy Spirit. These three are one.  "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Shost: and these three are one" (1 John 5:7).


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

God created the universe.  What is the Universe made of?  Three things...time, space, and matter.

"In the beginning..."  What is that?  It is time.  One thing.  But time is made up of three parts: past, present, and future.

"In the beginning God..." The word for God here in the Hebrew is Elohim, the plural name for God.  God is Trinity...One in Three...Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. 

"In beginning God created the heavens..."  What is that?  Space.  What is space?  Width, depth, height.

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."  What is that?  Matter. What is matter?  Solid, liquid, and gas.

What are you?  Body, soul, and spirit.

What are atoms made of?  Proton, nuetron, and electron.

How do you see God?  You see Him through His creation.
