“BEFORE TIME, BEFORE THE BANG”

So many people think God is just a distant, far-off concept, maybe with others in their dilemma, but not present for theirs. The truth is, our God is not some fabricated deity invented by a cult or an atheist’s worst nightmare. He is Jehovah God, the one true God, and He forever will be With Us—past, present, and future.

Before the mountains, before the earth, before the scientists even started guessing whether the planet is seven thousand or seven billion years old, there was only God. Nothing or no one can lay claim to this reality but Him. God plus nothing created everything. It wasn’t some systematic evolution or some big-bang accident. The very first line of the Bible is clear: “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”

When we read Genesis 1:26, “Let us make man in our image,” we are looking right into the Holy Trinity before creation even finished. This wasn’t determined by man; this was the will of the Everlasting Father, the Mighty God, the one who has no predecessor and no successor. He can’t be voted out, and His throne can’t be overtaken. He is the only God who offers true salvation—not a mile-long list of dos and don’ts, but freedom and life forever.

Psalm 90:2– “Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.”
