In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. (time, space, matter)
Time, space, matter
All contained in the very first verse of scripture.
There is no other document on earth with such revelation of truth and facts contained in seven words (the original text) as the opening announcement which gives credibility to everything that follows, as well as putting in place the attempts of man to dismiss it.
God and His word have always been light years ahead. ‘For ever O Lord thy word is settled in heaven:
For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him:
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.’
Yep, even communication is subject to the laws of a Creator. After all, it is the word of God.
Let God be true, and every man a liar. (Now now, I have said many times this does not mean men cannot tell the truth; but as to a Creator, to deny what is obvious; ahem, ‘in the beginning God created…’)

Hey W:
Please indulge my folly-
That house is a fabrication to dupe writers everywhere. It is a narrative construct. He never lived there. His writings were forged. No true writers believe he ever lived. He never lived in Key West. He copied other writers. There is absolutely no evidence the E. Hemingway and his ‘Sea’ were real. People have been duped for years! There were no bells that tolled.
The time, space, and matter of Hemingway is a global fraud! The records of his existence can’t be trusted…
Ouch, and sorry 😉

Colorstorm, are you not going to release my comment? You released Planting Potatoes… but not mine.
Any reason? (Freedom of Speech, remember)
You said There is no other document on earth with such revelation of truth and facts contained in seven words (the original text) as the opening announcement which gives credibility to everything that follows, as well as putting in place the attempts of man to dismiss it.
That statement is wrong. (EDIT: This comment goes on and yawn and yawn.)
COLORSTORM TWO CENTS: Forget it jz. Your three long winded comments attacking scripture have no welcome mat here, you may as well paste them at your place. Figures somebody would come along with a story about the unreliability of the first verse of scripture, and present the ‘alternative stories’ which simply assault scripture and God Himself. To debate your comments, gives credibility to your bizarre claims.
Not interested. Genesis 1.1 is authoritative enough, and ten thousand devils cannot break the triple cord of truth, that God is responsible for all that is. May I kindly refer you to the example of the Lord before Pilate: He who was the Truth, was mute.
Now go ahead and say how ‘afraid’ I am to post the ‘truth,’ but there is this thing called discernment.
(By the way, I did you a favor by not mentioning your ‘mistake’ which actually hurt your case)

Woops, I made a mistake. That list is in fact the Hebrew order of Creation. Apologies, I didn’t read the site (which was identifying the similarities) well-enough before copying that segment.
If you want you can find the Zoroastrian creation story in, as said, the first Fargad (chapter) of the Vendidad, the most ancient parts of the Avesta. It’s almost identical to the Hebrew one, except some orders, and of course, pre-dating the Hebrew version by over 1,000 years. The Zoroastrian Creation story is today collectively called the Bundahishn , its vast, and it begins:

You have this very peculiar habit of assigning meaning to things which simply does not exist.

That is a “fact” Colorstorm. You can’t be angry with “facts.” They just are: facts 😉

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.

In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

Aside from the obvious sarcasm in my comment above, I am what I say I am; there’s nothing much to hide. Your derogatory claim about my integrity really needs no response, for many, many will disagree with you. However, I thought I would include a definition as a refresher (with reference – I’m not stealing). It seems to me that nowhere in the following definition does it require to defend one’s beliefs to one who only wants to mock them. For that matter, a man of integrity might consider such a waste, sort of like casting pearls… but you’re no swine, are you? 😉
integrity /ɪnˈtɛgrɪti/
■ noun
1 the quality of having strong moral principles.
2 the state of being whole.
▶ the condition of being unified or sound in construction.
▶ internal consistency or lack of corruption in electronic data.

You were being sarcastic. Good heavens, I would never have guessed.

But all your claimed integrity is nullified in the context of our discussion as you are a Christian.
It is somewhat like military intelligence – an oxymoron.
