The work of Creation By God is the absolute beginning of the temporal and material world. The biblical evidence declares that God created the original heaven and earth from nothing (Genesis 1:1,2), and specifically noted in verse 2 of Genesis. 1, that when it was conceived by God, the mass was without form and void, and without life. The remaining account of Genesis 1 simply explains the process of creation in detail throughout six literal days.


There is simply no implication in the Bible for the gap theory or any theory for that matter. Man and creation did not originate from something that was dead. We were created by the living God from nothing to something.

Creation... The Way It Began.  The work of Creation By God is the absolute beginning of the temporal and material world. The biblical evidence declares that God created the original heaven and earth from nothing (Genesis 1:1,2), and specifically noted in verse 2 of Gen. 1, that when it was conceived by God, the mass was without form and void, and without life.


The remaining account of Genesis 1 simply explains the process of Creation in detail throughout six literal days. There is simply no implication in the Bible for the gap theory or any theory for that matter. Man and creation did not originate from something that was dead. We were created by God from nothing by virtue of His Word.
