wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them. Now therefore, O LORD our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD God, even thou only. 19:17-19
But the Lord is in His holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before Him. Habbakuk 2:19,20
Q5 As Creator of all things what is the area of authority of the Creator God?
God that made the world and all things therein, seeing He is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands. Acts 17:24
Behold the heaven and the heavens of heavens is the Lord’s thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is. Deuteronomy 10:14
For the Lord your God, He is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath. Deut 2:11
Q6 With what words did Jesus Himself confirm this?
At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Matthew 11:25
Q7 When there is a conflict of interest between earthly authorities and God, who takes precedence?
We asked their names also to certify thee, that we might write the names of the men that were the chief of them. And thus they returned us answer saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth. Ezra 5:10,11.
Q8 What cheerful confidence can we put in our Creator God?
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for Hhs help. Whose hope is in the Lord His God; which made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that therein is, which keepeth truth forever; Psalm 146:5,6.
NOTE: This verse gives us three things that we all long for - help, hope and someone who will be faithful to their promises. The Bible says this is what we can expect from God and we are happy and blessed if we have this experience. God is the everlasting God, therefore the God of Jacob can be our God too. This does not imply that the God of the Bible is the God of Judaism only. He is the Maker of us all.
Q9 Who gives us Bible prophecy?
For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name. Amos 4:13
NOTE: The blessings we receive from God, answers to prayer, help, hope, His constancy towards us, and His prophetic words in which He shares His thoughts with us, are all linked in scripture to the fact the He is the Creator of all.
Q10 When did God create the earth?
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Genesis 1:1
