The Six Days Of Creation: "in The Beginning..."

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." (Genesis 1:1)​
This is a powerful statement as we are able to see that God being able to create the heavens and the earth is proof that He created all things and declares Himself to be the first cause which was not caused. Why is this important? How do we prove this statement?
"In the beginning..."
means that time is a creation being temporal and not, as the Greeks thought, eternal. Before the beginning there was only eternity, thus we see that God has existed from eternity to eternity. Of those who disagree I ask you: 'Who has measured eternity and has found the beginning and end of it?'. Let us not commit the same folly as fools thinking they can measure infinity because they do not understand it is not finite. Since time has a beginning we can conclude that it also has an end. Furthermore we learn one of the principles of physics, literally 'nature', that energy cannot be created or destroyed: by this I mean that God is not created so, He cannot be created nor destroyed; but, the heavens and the earth, and time which are created can be destroyed; and, since God has no beginning He also has no end; but, the heavens, earth, and time have a beginning and an end. Energy can also be seen as life, thus: God is the Life Energy which gives life energy to His creations. Here we learn another important principle from nature: like begets like. But how did God create all things? For according to nature only gods beget gods.
"...God createad..."
If I asked you what 'God' and 'create' have in common then what would your answer be? For those who have the answer well, but for those who have not the answer not well as ignorance will continously give way to falsehood; whereas knowledge will give way to truth. 'God' and 'create' have the same things as everything I have written thus far: they are both words. We see that the Word of God is how God created all things without the aid of matter which, in itself is a creation; for matter, unlike energy can be created and destroyed; and has a beginning and an end. Where did the matter come from?
"...the heavens and the earth."
The Word then is where all things find their origin! And what of the process of creating matter and the things from matter, how is this accomplished? When we investigate the word 'create' it finds its roots from the Latin 'crescere' meaning 'crescent'; from the Anglo-French 'crestre' to grow; and akin to Old High German 'hirsi' millet, Lithuanian 'serti' to feed, and the Greek 'koros' boy. In short these words give us the idea of growth threw nurturing. And where is the word which creates all other words nutured? Before words come out of the mouth, they are housed in the heart, and within the heart is the mind which is the spirit, and the spirit is housed within the soul. For the Word is the Soul which lives and the spirit is the nature or force within the soul. As the student is directed by the teacher; the body is directed by the spirit; and, the spirit is directed by the soul. From here we can understand why some men think matter and time to be eternal as all things are derived from the 'word'. If all words came from the Word and the Word is Eternal, then would not matter and time be eternal? If so or not so then how do we go about proving this? Simple: Once the Word of God who is God had finished planning all that He sought to carry out in His Mind, "In the beginning..." as I stated earlier means that eternity which was without beginning or end was given what it did not formerly have, thus, being effectively removed from the dwelling of God which is in eternity. This means that until one is subjected to an existence which one at first did not have then one will remain in their current state at the last; for example, until one is subjected to death one will always have life. If Life begets life then Death begets death; but, how then does Death live? Death lives because of Life and yet is opposed to it and itself; whereas Life gives life to Death and itself; and is opposed to Death but not itself. With this same logic we can conclude that Truth begets truth and Falsehood begets falsehood; and, as Death is contrary to Life and itself so too is Falsehood contrary to Truth and itself; whereas Truth is contrary to Falsehood but not to itself. We have another principle from nature, namely, duality. Here we encounter the 'Liar's Paradox':

"This sentence is false" or, "All Cretans are liars."

Applying the duality argument we see that this statement contradicts itself as it is true that it is false or, that it is a lie; and yet, it is true that this statement is false so, which is it? Many would have one to believe that it never ends but, if this were so then how could judges give judgments in court and, similarly how could one ever come to a conclusion? For those who say that that the 'Liars Paradox' never ends have proven themselves to be liars as they have reached a conclusion about that which they formerly said has no conclusion! We may solve this problem through logic which, the word itself is Greek for 'word' or 'reasoning'. As I proved that from the Word came all words, and these words are summed up in the Word, so too can duality be summed up into singularity; so, in conclusion the 'Liar's Paradox' is false since it is contrary to itself and to the truth: for though the 'Liar's Paradox began as true its end proved to be false. Let us then not be of a double mind but, be that of a single mind and guide our actions in a straight path beginning with the end in mind. By this I mean that if we wish our end conclusion to be true then we must be sure that our beginning premise is true.
In conclusion...
We have conclusive evidence that all things have been been nurtured and grow in the mind of God and that He put into His heart what He wished to create and breathed it into existence through the Word of His mouth. And all things originate from the Word of God for He was, is, and will always be the Word that gives Life and Death to all His creations. And since God was not created He cannot be destroyed: He has no beginning nor end; He is eternal and not finite; immortal and not mortal; life and not death. His creations can only produce each after their own kind and are not gods or goddesses unless made to be so by God; so, all His creations can be destroyed, have a beginning and an end; are finite and not infinite; are mortal and not immortal; and live and die. My fellow men for those who say that God is not the first cause but, instead had a cause which had a cause, ad infinitum, I ask this one question: Seeing as God is the Word and from the Word all other words owe their cause to the Word of words, what is the cause of the Word?
