         We live in a world of competing and conflicting opinions on many subjects. Some subjects, such as who will win the next Super Bowl or World Series are ultimately of little importance. But some are of major importance. One subject of major importance is the origin of the heavens and the earth.

         Many scientists spend their lifetimes trying to determine how the heavens and the earth, and the human race, came to be. Evolutionary theories are thought by many persons to be reasonable explanations of the question of origins. For some persons, such as atheists, evolutionary theories are the only reasonable explanations. And even many persons who are not atheists believe in evolution.

         But for those of us who believe the Bible to be what it is: the infallible Word of God, there is a much more reasonable explanation of the origin of the heavens and the earth, and the human race. That is, we believe God brought these things into existence. And we believe that the Bible gives the true history of how it all happened. This subject is a common one in the Bible. It is found in the Bible's first two chapters, and comes up many more times throughout the Bible.

         What follows is a link to the first chapter of the Bible's first book, which is called "Genesis." Once you have read this chapter, you next can read chapter two of Genesis, which deals with the same subject in a different way. Here's the link: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+1&version=NKJV

         It is very significant that the founder of the Christian faith, the Lord Jesus Christ, affirmed the truthfulness of these two chapters of Genesis. You can read what he said about them in the 19th Matthew's Gospel. Here is a link to that chapter: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+19&version=NKJV.
