THE ALPHA & OMEGA IN RELATION TO CREATION

To understand Gods relation to creation we must first consider the contrast between
God and creation. Lets first begin with Gods Omnitemporal nature, remember that God
had no beginning, He always existed and continues to exist in the past, present and
future simultaneously. However, at one point the universe did not exist, and ALL
that was, was the Triune GOD who lived in the fellowship of love. For creation
to come into existence 1st - God had to withdraw and create a void, making a
place for all of creation. (Gen 1:1-2), God then spoke into the void, creating all
things, as well as angelic beings, or beings of light (Gen 1:3-10) 2nd- The Big
Bang, as scientist call it, began with a withdrawal of God which created a
void, or local for creation. God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit were all
part of this creative process. Consider the verses John 1:1-5 and remember
Gen 1:2 . 3rd - The void was then filled in a Big Bang, or shout of Gods
spoken DNA words of life. God, the complete alphabet of life, the Alpha &
Omega (signified by 1st & last letters of Hebrew alphabet) spoke the DNA
letters of life into the new creation , which if you remember was initially void
and without form.

4th - Although God is the complete language of life, the

Alpha and Omega, creation is not, and unlike God, each created living thing
has a limited amount of DNA letters.

We all are narrowed by species, then

narrowed to by DNA race, then narrowed to your individual DNA family, and
finally to the DNA name of the individual. 5th - Creation exists as parts, such
as words, or sentences in the DNA language of life. Each word, or sentence, is
incomplete and not the entire Alphabet in itself because each piece of creation
is limited in its number of letters.
When the incomplete language letters of life in a species such as humans
have free will or choice, then making a choice contrary to the Alpha & Omegas
will or purpose, it can create problems, especially since each creature also has
limitations to their knowledge.

Choices, outside the perfect will of God, are

called evil and sin because without knowing the whole picture a limited being
can do harmful things even unintentionally. Satan, a being of light, suggested
to Adam and Eve that the perfect will of God was wrong (Gen 3:1-5). Ironically,
in the temptation that Satan offered, to know both good and evil, Adam and
Eve had already known Good, which is God, for they had walked with God in
the garden. It was only evil that was foreign to them.
Remember, limited knowledge combined with freewill is a dangerous
thing, since there is always a potential for evil, for picking wrong and
harmful choices (Rom 5:12). However, because God is all knowing, the Triune
God through Christ prepared for salvation even before the fall (John 1:1-5). It

was Jesus who took on a limited human frame to walk and talk with
humankind throughout Scripture (Col 1:15-17). It is the Triune God that had
made man (Gen 1:26). It is in the person of Christ, that God continues to hold
the fallen and damaged universe together (Col 1:17, Phil 2:6-8).
This is why salvation is only possible because Christ is both fully God
and fully man, containing the complete DNA language of God and the limited
language of man, as well as the mtDNA of humankind through Mary, which
carries inherited sin and programmed death. This aspect will be discussed
more thoroughly in the next slide.
6th - Apart from a relationship with God through Christ, salvation would not
be possible. However, like mtDNA in our body, we cant live with mtDNA forever
because of the aspect of the programmed death, as well as disease. Yet, we
cant live without it because it is our bodys energy source. Sadly, individuals
who have a Mitochondrial disorder can attest to the now present need for
mtDNA. We cant live eternally because of our mtDNA, and we cant live without
it because without it we will die. We are reminded in our fleshly bodies that
make choices often based on survival of the fittest rather than out of love and
mercy, and in this tangled web of selfishness we know that Everyone who
commits sin is the slave of sin. yet, we are also told that if the Son sets you

free, you will be free indeed John 8:34-36. Therefore, we need help, we need a
Savior. Apart from the gift of salvation provided by Christ Jesus on the cross,
and the acceptance of this gift by submitting to the work of the Holy
Spirit in our choices, we will not only die physically, but also eternally.

SYMBIOTIC SIN
The next concept I will address may be either an analogy or actuality, but
because I am neither a scientist, nor a prophet it will be up to the individual to
make that determination on their own. However, personally I understand sin
and the fall through the lens of the Bible and considering scientific knowledge.
First of all, all Humans have both DNA and mtDNA. Your primary DNA is your
unique name written in letters within the nucleus of your cells. The primary
DNA is located at the center of each cell in your body, whereas the MtDNA is a
kidney bean shaped organ floating in the plasma outside the nucleus of the
cell. MtDNA is inherited from the mother alone, however, primary DNA is
inherited 50/50 from each parent.
Before I go any further with this concept, I would like to direct your
thoughts to an actual common core between a creationists and an
evolutionists explanation of how humankind became to be as it is currently in
our world. To accomplish this feat I must turn to Lynn Margulis, the ex-wife of

the scientist Carl Sagan, and a scientist herself, as well as a proponent of

evolution. Margulis wrote a book called The symbiotic planet and in her
book Margulis defined Symbiogenesis from a concept proposed by its Russian
inventor Konstantin Merezhkovsky, as the formation of new organs and
organisms through symbiotic mergers. My point here is that whether it is a
physical reality, or an analogy, I will use this concept to explain the
consequence of sin in creation.
Lets back up a bit first. Before the fall, I believe that Adam & Eve were
substantially different in their physicality. We learn this in Genesis, where
before the fall they were without pain, disease, and death. Additionally, they
were not concerned with being naked. Remember these important facts, I am not
just talking about the pain, suffering and death aspects, as though these
aspects were an add-on to an already physical earthly body. Rather, I am
speaking about a totally new and different kind of physicality in which
humankind would be grounded and bound to the earth, as well as limited
in capabilities.
To get a better understanding about this concept, think about the
physicality of Jesus Christ when He rose from death. In His resurrected body
we learn that Jesus was able to eat, be touched, and yet He could also walk

through walls and ascend into the clouds. Now let us consider Adam and Eve
once again before the fall. I believe that God had forbidden Adam & Eve to
ingest the fruit, not only as a test for to make them aware of their actual love
and trust of God, but also as a protective warning because the forbidden fruit
also contained the bacterial life we now call mtDNA. However, Adam and Eve
failed the test, and once the mtDNA laden fruit was ingested an interdependent
relationship known as symbiosis would begin within their bodies. The mtDNA
would become so intermeshed within the individual that killing the mtDNA
would also kill the person.
Christ, as I had mentioned earlier regarding His work in creation, had
walked on the earth and talked with Adam and Eve. However after the fall,
Adam and Eve would become both naked and afraid because they now were
fully exposed and vulnerable to suffering due to the sin within. The promise
and temptation of Satan had been that they would know both Good and evil if
they ingested the fruit. Sadly, they had already known good, they had
walked and talked with God, what they gained, if you can call it that, was
evil. Similar in some ways to the tower of Babble where language was
confused, the DNA language inside Adam and Eve was altered when the new
mtDNA was introduced. This physical alteration would cause discord within,
strife with each other, and a separation from God.

Physically their changed bodies would now also become vulnerable to pain,
disease and death. Although humankind was in creation since the sixth day of
creation, it was at this point that humankind, with its new physicality would
finally leave behind a footprint in the earthly creation. What I mean by this
statement is that unlike before, humankind now physically left a footprint
because it now had a new animal-like physicality. The new physicality could
no longer fly above the trees, walk through solid objects, but would instead feel
the pain that this new naked skin would bring.
This might also help to explain why there was such a great explosion of
knowledge that took place in creation, which probably came after the fall when
humankind, who was created in the image of God, suddenly was grounded in
the harsh physical world outside Eden. This burst of knowledge is difficult to
explain even with the thousands of years needed for the concept of evolution.
The evolutionist also has the problem of the holes, and gaps between species
that cannot account for.
However, getting back to humankind, after the fall the mtDNA letters in
humankind would be a burden, and the new physicality would require clothing,
food and shelter. Although humankind was intelligent, it would take time to
adapt to the new physical world that required so much knowledge for basic

survival, and the initial efforts of humankind would be focused entirely on

survival. The new physical body containing mtDNA would not fit together
smoothly with the DNA name that God had originally bestowed on humankind,
and survival of the fittest would ensue.

The added mtDNA, and the new

rewording would hurt both humankind as well as all of creation, especially

since the fallen humankind had been given dominion over the created world.
Humankind concerns would now be self-centered, and this self-centered
approach would carry a cost for all of creation. Creation would eventually
suffer with deforestation during wars, manmade pollution, selfish crop planting
as well as hybridization. Animals would later need to hide from the violent
human predators, and they were told to do so after the flood.
However, God being Omniscient, already had a plan in place before the
creation of the world, and before the incarnation of Christ Jesus. God was
already working to protect humankind as well as all of creation. As a matter of
fact, one provision of God for humankind can be found in the actuality of the
human body. A cross-shaped structure called laminin is in place, to quite
literally hold our bodies together. (Col 1:17) Before the fall I believe there was
no mtDNA in humankind, or in the pre-incarnate Christ who walked in the
garden with Adam and Eve before the fall. However, after the fall humankind,
but not yet the preincarnate Christ, would carry mtDNA. Jesus would receive

mtDNA from His mother at his conception. Jesus would carry the
complete Alpha and Omega language of life from His Father, as well as the
mtDNA language of death from his human mother Mary. Remember that
from the ingestion of the forbidden fruit at the fall, the mtDNA would begin to
make constant demands on humankind for shelter, avoidance of pain and for
survival, and doesnt this echo the consequence of sin worded by God in Gen
3:16-19?
You might ask why I connect the mtDNA to the sinful nature of man?
MtDNA, like sin, permeates the body, so that we cannot rid ourselves of it, and
to attempt to do so would mean death of the body. The problem is that
humankind, unlike God, does not have the eternal life within. What happened
to humankind at the fall when the mtDNA laden fruit was ingested, was a
symbiotic merger within both Adam and Eve. It is from that point in history
that the human body would become, not like God, the lie of Satan, but like the
rest of creation and be dependent on the ingested mtDNA for its energy source,
instead of God.
To help you better understand this crucial point, it is important to know
that mtDNA is the locale in each cell of the body where ATP is generated, and
ATP is the biochemical energy source for the body. In order for the mtDNA to

10

make ATP (energy) for the body it makes demands on the body for oxygen and
food. So, after the fall the human body would require mtDNA to survive, for
without it, and without God as an energy source, human body would die.
Because mtDNA is so important to the body mtDNA disfunction plays a key
role in a wide range of diseases such as cancer, and age related disorders.
Some scientists have even suggested that mtDNA is responsible for the
programmed death of the cells in the body.
Because of our inability to rid ourselves of this symbiotic relationship we
would need a Savior who is both God and man. To rid the body of mtDNA, a
human body would need to die, yet to regain life, the body would also need life
within itself, or in other words, to be God. This is why we need Jesus, who is a
dualnatured Savior.

Jesus was able to die in our place as a human man, but

He would also be able to rise from death as God, and in that manner sin could
be destroyed in humankind forever.
