Hello everyone! This is my NEW Old and New Testament blog. You can use it to record points, check memory work, or look at pictures. However, each week I will list this week's memory verse on the blog. I will give you a "factoid" about the verse that you may not know. Here's your part. YOU look for another fact on that verse that you think is interesting. It might be who wrote that verse, it might be when it was written, it might be what one of the words means...you can do whatever you want. However, give me your fact on my blog by posting here to this blog. Be sure you sign your name. Someone will win each week. Here's week one:
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
MY FACT: The first four words of this verse tell you more than who created the earth. They tell you in the beginning, God was already there!!! Always has been, always will be! :) Your turn. Tell me something you know. Don't know how to find it? Come see me and I will point you in the right direction.
A fact we found was that the Bible always assumes God's existence, and never argues His existence.

The author of this verse is Moses, and he wrote the verse during the 4th year of Solomon's reign over Israel. He also wrote the first five books of the Old Testament.

The word "create" in the Bible is only used in for divine personage.

Good facts, gang. You all who said Moses wrote the book are right, however you time period is wrong. Moses was not alive when Solomon reigned. The notes are a little confusing because they use Solomon's reign to discuss what time period Moses was wandering in the desert. We think he probably wrote it while wandering for 40 years in the desert - plenty of time - but way before Solomon reigned! --Mrs. Ramseyer
