By Whom Also He Made The Worlds

Shalom In Yahshua and welcome once again to our study of Yahshua as revealed to us in  Hebrews 1:1-4. 

Please note, that this is a very deep study; therefore I would advise all to pause for a time of earnest prayer before proceeding with this study. The study contains material which may be new to some believers in Yahshua. It will certainly challenge previously held positions. But remember that Truth is progressive. Like the sun in the sky (Ps.19) truth starts out slowly and builds until it comes into the zenith of its strength. I advise all to look to YHWH and the guiding of His Ruach (Spirit) through the pages of the Holy Scriptures to see whether these things are so. For man is sure to lead astray but YHWH is our strong tower and the righteous run into it and are safe. (Prov.18:10) 

In this study we desire to look into the related topic of the creation of our world (when the foundations of earth were laid) and the order of events regarding the creation week, as shown in the Genesis 1 account. We wish to show the relation between the creation of our world to Heb. 1:2 and to Rev.12:7-12. For, in these portions of Scriptures we find some valuable spiritual knowledge which I believe will bring the Scriptures regarding this topic into clearer focus.We will share a developed thought here and continue it in our subsequent post.

In this post we turn our attention to the balance of Heb. 1:2, namely:

 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;  

Notice that the verse does not say 'by whom also he made the world' but; 'by whom also he made the worlds.' 

At this point we wish to consider two texts of Scripture; Gen.1:1 and John 1:1-3 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." Now concerning the divinity of Yahshua we have this: The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.When [there were] no depths, I was brought forth; when [there were] no fountains abounding with water.(Prov.8:22-24) No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].(Jn.1:18) Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God;(Jn.8:42) neither came I of myself, but he sent me." It was at the beginning that Yahweh  "... laid the foundations of the earth, [that] it should not be removed for ever. (Ps.104:5)

In careful consideration of the above texts of Scripture we have the following:
1. It was in the beginning that YHWH (God) created the heaven and the earth. (Gen.1:1)
2. It was in the beginning that the Word (Yahshua) was present and with God and Yahshua (the Word) was God. (Jn.1:1,2)
3. Subsequent to the dateless time all things were made by Yahshua.(Jn.1:3)
4. However, in the beginning, YHWH possessed Yahshua before His works of old.
5.  Yahshua was 'set up' from everlasting[meaning that Yahshua is eternal]; before the earth was created.(Prov.8:22,23)
6. Before there was no depths Yahshua was 'brought forth'. (Prov.8:24) Please note that the 'depths' referred to are the same as in Gen.1:2 "...and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep." 
7. Yahshua was brought forth before there were 'foundations abounding with water'. [Please note that these 'foundations abounding with water is the same as when in Gen.1:3 " And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."]
6.  Yahshua is presented as being in the bosom of His Father. (Jn.1:18)
7. Yahshua is presented as proceeding and coming forth from God.(Jn.8:42)
8. Therefore Yahshua who eternally existed with His Father; at some point in the dateless ages of eternity proceeded and came forth from His Fathers bosom. Please note that the emphasis is upon eternally existing in the bosom of His Father; and then proceeding and coming forth from Him.
9. It was at this time in the beginning that God created the heaven which the Scriptures describe as " Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea. (Job.9:9); or, Who coverest [thyself] with light as [with] a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:(Ps.104:2)
10.  When YHWH (God) made the heaven (Gen.1:1)is the same as in Prov.8:27 " When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
11. When YHWH made the foundations of the earth (not creation week) Yahshua was there  When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry [land] appear: and it was so. And God called the dry [land] Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that [it was] good.(Gen.1:1-3,9,10)

 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:(2Pe.3:5)

In Heb.11:3 we find "Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."


Isa. 45:18 "For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is] none else."


In careful consideration to the above Scripture verses we find the following:

1. In His appointed capacity of Creator, Yahshua made the worlds. 
2. We have a second witness to this fact which is be found in  (Heb.11:3)
3. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Notice the text says, 'In the beginning'. It goes on to say that the earth was 'without form and void'. It says that the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Notice, it did not say that YHWH created the waters then moved upon them. It says that God moved upon the waters. The waters were already there. And the earth was as well. The earth and waters which were already there was made; when? 'In the beginning'. However, when we consider Heb.11:3 we learn that:
4. The earth and waters which was already present when YHWH came to create all things on this earth; was made  by His Word, In the beginning (Ps.33:9) In other words, the earth and waters were not needed by God to create something else from them. He created them (earth and waters from nothing!); and this at some time in eternity, which He would have us refer to as 'In the beginning'. 

Therefore 'In the beginning' when YHWH made the heaven and the earth; the earth was made to be 'without form and void' and that darkness was upon the face of the deep. So we get a picture of an earth (not spherical; or not the way it is now). Above it, [the earth], was waters and darkness was upon 'the face of the deep'. That is to say the deep waters.   We would do well not to speculate as to the age of the earth in its original state (for that information the Scriptures do not address). It is not the purpose of this post to lend any credibility to an old earth. We simply wish to show what the Scriptures has stated in regards to this matter. In review of many articles and presentations made by six  (literal) day creationist, (i.e. Answers In Genesis), I believe that life has existed on this earth for about 6,000yrs. Consistent with Scriptural chronology. 

5. Now why was the earth made? 'he formed it to be inhabited'. (Isa.45:18) 

6. Why did Yahshua make all the other worlds?  'to be inhabited'. (Isa.45:18) (Heb.13:8) Since God created this world to be inhabited; and there are other worlds in our solar system which are not inhabited; but are just as real as the one we live on; we conclude that YHWH who is consistent in all His works; has made other worlds for the same purpose. It is like the difference between a butterfly and an eagle; they both are flying creatures, and they both were created with wings, and we conclude that they were both made to fly. But the butterfly was once a caterpillar; a creature without wings. However, we know in the process of time it will go through its amazing metamorphoses and come forth with bright beautiful wings.  So, the worlds in our solar system were made to be inhabited, but unlike the butterfly, they have not undergone the creative process as earth has; and therefore are yet uninhabited.

In summary, my position is that the earth; when it was originally created by YHWH without form and void, [ it may have looked similar to Mars or Venus; keeping in mind that the sun was not made until day 4] was existing for some time before the Creation Week commenced. It is my view that the creative power manifested by Yahshua, in creation week, is a type of the work that will be done on the other worlds in our solar system in His appoint way and time. (See Ps. 22:31) 


We do not agree with the "Gap Theory" which some use to justify life/death on earth and the age of the fossil record; for this is simply against the plain statement of Scripture which informs us that through Adam's disobedience death came into the world. 

We hope to go deeper into this subject with more Scripture in regards to why I believe that this position is a logical conclusion based upon The War in Heaven, the casting down of Satan, and the creation and fall of man. 

Until next time......

Shalom and Ahava In Yahshua.
