One of the fundamental enigmas of our existence, and for that matter, God’s existence, is the act of creation. Has the cosmos been created ex nihilo or was it an intelligent design by God? Does God, having created the world, let it evolve and develop on its own, subject to the rules of evolution and chance; or does God intervene in every step of evolution in a deus ex machina manner? What is the role of man in creation? Is it as central as existentialism and quantum mechanics assure us: that without human consciousness interacting with energy-matter, there would not be any objects and life forms? Is man the crown of creation permanently, or once evolution forms a more effective connecting agent between spirit and energy-matter, will man be relegated to the world of fossils? The book concludes with a thorough examination of human norms, values and morals. As such, this book constitutes a comprehensive treatise on the genesis of the world, the birth of God, and the role of man.

It is not only the Catholics who attend Sunday Mass, but also the priests who preach at Mass who feel overwhelmed by the three scripture readings in which for the most part only the first from the Old Testament and the third from the Gospel have any interconnection, while the second from the apostolic letters stands by itself. This book seeks to present the common theses that connect all three of the readings for Sundays and feasts of the Lord in the three year cycle of readings. The reflections here are meant to be theological and spiritual suggestions that the one who is preaching can develop further and from which he can select individual perspectives. Rather than seeking immediately concrete applications, Fr. von Balthasar attempts to elucidate the content which is immediately present in the passages. Organized by each Sunday and feast day of the liturgical year for years A, B, & C, these reflections are meant to be theological and spiritual suggestions that the one who is preaching can develop further and from which he can select individual perspectives.

In Let There Be Light, Howard Smith, a research astrophysicist and traditionally observant Jew, explores how modern scientific understandings of the cosmos complement Judaism's ancient mystical theology, the Kabbalah. He argues that science and religion are not only compatible, but that a healthy, productive dialogue between the two sheds light on ethics, free will, and the nature of life, while at the same time rejecting fundamentalist misinterpretation and the pseudoscience of creationism. Written for a general audience, yet supported by the most current and accurate scientific research, the book discusses topics such as modern quantum mechanics and mystical notions of awareness; how Kabbalah's ten sefirot mirror the developing phases of an inflationary universe; and the surprising parallels that exist between the Big Bang theory and Kabbalah's origin theory. Smith delves into complex ideas without resorting to jargon or mathematical equations, creating an intelligent, authoritative work accessible to all readers.

The Bible says from the beginning God created all things Good, Well he is Good so he can only create good things, more than that he created man in his own image and in his own likeness. The way he created everything was by his word, He spoke the (good)words, and (good)things came to be. Until we see sin entering this world. Where did sin and evil come from then? It couldn't come from him he is a good God and it can't come from inside of a man because man was created in God's image and he was Holy as God is Holy. So it came from the outside! It was a lie that's all that it was. just a lie!... And the lie was that we are not created in God's image and so we are not Good as he is Good. When that lie is believed evil enters the world. When a man speaks he creates just like God. So when a man speaks evil he creates evil. Why would he speak evil in the first place? From seeing and hearing something that is outside. All that man receives from the outside... An experience he has might get inside his thoughts and turn into a belief and based on that belief he starts speaking. That's where judgments come from. But who remembers the verse in the Bible that says God does not judge based on the appearances and the outside but the inside? who are you inside? Who are we all humans inside? Jesus the son of God! yes I believe that Jesus is who we truly are inside and he is the only true identity we all have no matter what background we come from what religion we have what family or country we are grown in we all have one identity and that is the son of the living God, We are all his Children made in his image Holy and blameless and that's the truth Jesus came to reveal to us.Now the moment we start judging one another based on our works or worldly gains or achievements is the moment we eat from the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil and at that very moment we die and produce sin. why should we know evil? Is God both good and evil or is he only good? As the book of Romans chapter 3 verse 20 says; through the law we gain the knowledge of sin and the more we know sin the more we produce the fruit of sin. I thought we were supposed to know God and produce the fruit of good works! that's right we were never supposed to know any evil. Before Adam and eve eat of the fruit of that tree all they had was the knowledge of God and the true God is not both good and evil he is good, the true man is also not both good and evil but only good. that's why Jesus said make the two into one. let your eye be single and your whole body will be full of light having no dark parts in you. in this book I'm going to give you what the Holy Spirit has revealed to me about the trinity and the way I do that is by taking you on a journey through the scriptures and show you the son of God both in the old and the new testament. There are so many teachings, doctrines, beliefs about the trinity but I believe it can be found in the one and only commandment Jesus gave to his disciples " Love the Lord your God and Love your neighbor as yourself" It might sound like two or three commandments but the second is just like the first and they are all one.
