Bible stated that Jesus explained Himself from "Moses and the prophets". This term as used here and in similar way simply refers to what we call the Old Testament.
So, Jesus was able to give evidence of Himself using only the Bible. Hence, our sole reference in this exercise is also the Bible. It also means that in our lives, anything that is inconsistent with the Bible should be discarded quickly.
Then back in Genesis Chapter one, we see the Trinity at work. God the Father was there and the Spirit of God was moving. Then God send forth HIS WORD. and the Word got to work and began making things happen. When God called light out of darkness, and commanded things that were not there to be, God was not speaking for communication purpose. It was a command. But guess what, God is also the only one there at the beginning... So it was His Word that He spoke that went fourth to create everything.
In Genesis 2; we see the vivid description of the doings of the Word. The Word is the personality of the Trinity who folded His sleeves, touched down to dust and made everything.
Colossians 1:16 AMPC says;
For it was in Him that all things were created, in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, whether thrones, dominions, rulers, or authorities; all things were created and exist through Him [by His service, intervention] and in and for Him.
See also John1:1-3, Heb1:1-3. 1Cor1:24. Proverbs8:22-27.
Then in Chapter three of Genesis, man disobeyed God and it was in that fallen state that the redemption plan was immediately activated.
This is where we'll pick up from today for Day 3.
See you by 9pm. Blessings.
