About The Author
Preface
The idea for this book came out of my intense feelings each time I read Genesis, the first book in the Bible beginning in the Old Testament. In chapter one of Geneses, several sentences contain, “And God saw that It was good,” after reading the chapter over and over without clarity concerning those feelings, I finally asked the Holy Spirit to give me understanding.
The interpreters who transcribed the Bible into English were etymologists (the study of the origin and development of words, their form, and meaning). They sort the true sense of a word because they know the mysterious relationship between the word and that for which it stood. They often inserted words to make the written word of God evident. These words are written in italics to tell the reader they are not a part of the original word of God. Nevertheless, there are times leaving the italic comment out; you can better understand that particular verse and how it may relate to you in the present time.
The sentence, “And God saw that it was good,” is an excellent illustration. Was come from the Hebrew word Hayah (haw-yaw): meaning to exist, i.e., be or become, to pass (always emphatic, and not mere copular or auxiliary.) When analyzed, the word was means always decisive, express felt, or done with emphasis, very, striking, forcible definite (copular) connect, or links (auxiliary) giving help or aid assisting support.
This gives tremendous insight into what God saw in that good. He saw infinite as He is Infinite; everything came from Him and is in a constant mode of existence. The average individual would not know this in-depth meaning. And could conceivably be tricked by the adversary into believing what God saw was past tense, not the present time and beyond.
If there are any questions concerning the reason God created man in His Image, I hope to elucidate and answer those questions. I have meticulously attached all of this book’s material to the Bible scriptures; the name of the book, chapter, and verse for reference.
You may have never read the Bible, but my hope is when you finish this book, you will have a fundamental, essential, and beneficial working knowledge of God The Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I will explore the facts concerning the body of Christ and its functions. You will know what God saw in the beginning.
The desire to make my readers aware of the truth is most prevalent. I want you to be confident, knowing that despite the conditions on the earth and the tumultuous time we live in, God is still seeing that good manifested daily in His man. Because of the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, man can again come into the presence of God. If you have made Jesus your Lord, you are living in the world, but you are not of the world because you have been separated to God.

Chapter One
And God Saw That Good
G enesis, the first book in the Old Testament Bible, has always fascinated me: chapter number one, especially all thirty-one verses.
In that chapter, there are six times the statement, “and God saw that it was good,” is made. Every time I read those words, I experienced an inner knowing as if something was missing. The desire to understand more deeply what I was reading was always present. It was as if the words themselves were saying to me don’t you get it? If not, continue reading until your understanding becomes apparent, or get help.
Finally, I asked the Lord to please give me the answer to what He wanted me to know. In my Spirit, I sensed the answer to be reread and omit the two italicized words “ it was .” Leaving out those two words were the key, giving me the answer to my question, the truth of what God was seeing. God was seeing the results of the Trinity, God the originator speaking, Jesus the son, the spoken Word, and the Holy Spirit, the performer, the action of the spoken Word.
The first good God spoke: let there be light; the Holy Spirit hovering over the dark void moved, and there was light. God gave the world light of Himself; this was the light of life (look for a more detailed explanation later in this book). This light had the ability to make luminous as daylight, kindle light, give light to shine, and set on fire; it was a brilliant, glorious light. This light was illumination; it had the beginning makeup of chemistry, and it could warm, yet it could burn; God saw that good because He had planted a seed of Himself into it. There is never a second this light is not shining in its fullness someplace here on the earth; sometimes, obstructions block its views to you, such as clouds and fog, but it is there shining in all of its splendor. He divided the light from the darkness. The light He called day, the darkness He called night, Genesis 1: 1-6. God had a plan; this was the first action in accomplishing that plan.
The second good God spoke: let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters to divide the waters from the waters. The Holy Spirit caught God’s spoken Word, and because it had in it from Himself strength yet flexibility, the Holy Spirit began to stretch it, forming it into an expansion. He separated the water under the firmament from the water above, and He called the firmament heaven. God said let the water under the heavens be gathered in one place and let the dry land appear; as quickly as it was spoken, the Holy Spirit made it so. He called the dry earth, the waters seas, and God saw that good, Genesis 1: 7-10. The Holy Spirit caused the earth (the dry land) to become impregnated with every seed word God spoke.
The third good God spoke: saying the earth should bring forth grass, herb-yielding seeds, fruit trees yielding fruit after his kind with its seed in its self. The earth obeyed, bringing forth all things required of it, and God saw that good, Genesis 1: 12.
The fourth good God spoke: let there be light in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night for signs, seasons, days, and years. Let there be light in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth. The Holy Spirit made two great lights the greater light to rule the day, the lesser to rule the night. He made the stars and set them in the heavenly firmament, dividing the light from the darkness, and God saw that good in Genesis 1: 14-18.
The fifth good God spoke: let the waters bring forth in abundance the moving creatures that had life, fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of the heaven. The Holy Spirit created the great whales and every living creature that moved; the waters brought them forth in abundance after their kind, every winged fowl after his kind, and God saw that good. He blessed them, saying they should be fruitful by filling the waters in the seas, and the fowl should multiply in the earth, Genesis 1: 20-22.
The sixth good God spoke: let the earth bring forth the living creatures after his kind, cattle, and creeping things after his kind, and the beast of the earth after his kind, and the cattle after his kind, and God saw that good. He was still devising, shaping, and molding His plan.
