Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 27, 2023 (message contributor)
Summary: Every aspect of God’s perfect creation in Genesis 1 has been inverted by man to make monstrosities out of what God created and said, “It is good.” Satan is the one who will destroy and mangle all for evil. We look at these items Satan has mangled, twisted and inverted.

MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 1 – GENESIS CHAPTER 1
We are now living in a twisted, contorted and inverted world. In fact the change has not been a slow creeping of the years, but a very rapid convolution that has ascended from the pit and into the world. In almost every aspect of human existence that was taken for granted, and had stability in years gone by, there has been a demonic reversal of seeming goodness into a dark, sinister evil. It covers all aspect and here are some of them – the right to freedom of speech, the sanctity of children and their gender and sexuality, the unquestioned of right to life for the unborn, the sanctity of the marriage union between men and women only, the use of natural resources (eg. fossil fuels God has given), the creation of God, and there are so many others that could be cited.
THESE ARTICLES CONTAINS IRONY. However I think some people don’t understand irony. Don’t get it muddled. The statement of the bible each time I use it from Genesis, is followed by the direct contradiction the enemy would use. The contradiction will always be in inverted commas and represents what is said in opposition. It is a bit similar to this – {{1Kings 18:27 It came about at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, “Call out with a loud voice, for he is a god. Either he is occupied or gone aside, or is on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep and needs to be awakened,”}}
THE FIRST MATTER
{{Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God”}}. [[“No, God was not in the beginning. That is because there is no God. The existence of a God is contrary to our minds, which are set on humanism and rationalism. The mark of modern society is its cleverness in dismissing any notion of a God. The past was a time of myths for children and old people. The enlightenment has remedied that.”]]
Before man came to be dominated by science, the people of earth never questioned a higher authority. Most of the world before Christianity was dominated by paganism but that at least recognised a greater being or beings, even if the people were subject to idolatry.
In the last 300 years with the advance of knowledge, the world spawned humanists, inflated egos boosted with self-importance, the so-called rational thinkers. These became atheists. Most were/are educated people with degrees and high profiles. These atheists sit right in the centre of that wisdom that God calls foolishness. The wisdom of man is foolishness with God. These foolish people control the education systems; the government advisory bodies; and have permeated right through society.
The great modern trailblazer of the present world’s inversion was Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) a man Satan used to create great mischief. Others followed - Bertrand Russell (1872-1970), Stephen Hawking born (1942 – 2018), Richard Dawkins born 1941, Peter Singer born 1946 and said to be the most formidable living atheist in the world, and Christopher Hitchins (1949-2011). The very worst thing that can happen to a person is when reality shatters through consciousness and exposes such a dreadful loss. Some of those men are now in hell with their atheism and associated humanism blown apart.
I would like to ask atheists what was there in the beginning if you take God out of the equation. I would like to know what credible explanation they would have once God is removed. Would they say that nothing was there right back 13 billion years ago? They can’t admit to any form of deity so they would have to settle on, “Nothing was in the beginning.” Then I would like it explained to me how anything could come out of nothing.
We live in a world of matter. Our bodies are matter. How could matter come out of nothing? In the next section I take up the Big Bang but in that atheists claim there was this matter compressed into a minute particle, so how did that come about if the Big Bang was true (which it isn’t)? Explain the “matter”.
A problem similar to this existed in Paul’s time. They were the Gnostics who were a class of people with this higher knowledge; those who had been enlightened from the mundane thinking of the lower classes. I will not outline the platform of the Gnostics but will say this from scripture because it is what God thinks of them –
{{1Corinthians 1:25-27 “because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. Consider your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong,”}}
