This is the first sentence of God’s revelation to you. It is His first creative act and the origin of all material existence. Sadly, many respond to this claim with skepticism, but the proper creaturely response is worship. God reveals that unless He acted first, nothing would exist. Time as we know it commenced with His creative act, since it took place “in the beginning.” No building materials are mentioned in the verse, because God created out of nothing. Though impossible for man, God’s supernatural power achieved it. “The heavens and the earth” include all spheres of existence, but also emphasize how central earth is as the setting for God’s redemptive history.
