In the beginning God, this is how it starts, from our record anyway, found in Genesis chapter one. Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
It is this God, who created the heaven and the earth. This word, created is ‘bara’, which means to create something out of nothing.
created-bara 1254), “to create, make.” This verb is of profound theological significance, since it has only God as its subject. Only God can “create” in the sense implied by bara?. The verb expresses creation out of nothing, an idea seen clearly in passages having to do with creation on a cosmic scale: “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Gen. 1:1; cf. Gen. 2:3; Isa. 40:26; 42:5).
It is here that to create something out of nothing is that which God does. But as we look at this, let us consider what is ‘chaos’? Itself Chaos or Chaotic, means ‘lacking visible order or discipline’. It can also mean ‘unordered, unpredictable, and confusing’. Nearest synonym is ‘disorderly and helter skelter’. These meanings are dictionary meanings. From a biblical point of view, chaos itself is seen in the bible and is called ‘a place of confusion’. That is what it was ‘in the beginning’ if you were a man looking on. This confusion comes from our lack of understanding and knowledge of God. For He is and always has been.

‘Amidst the hour of Darkness, A great light has shined. A light into the hearts of men amidst the darkness of the age and rebellion of men’ Yea, the Sixth hour is come, but it will be full of God’s light and power! For he is LORD of LORDS and KING of KINGS!
Accounts of the Crucifixion:
Mark 15:33 Matthew 27:44 Luke 23:44 John19:25
Mark 15:33 ¶And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.
37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.
40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
The Sun was darkened on that day! From those who witnessed this, it was a sudden darkness that enveloped the whole of the land. Indeed, Luke writes that the ‘sun was darkened’ in chapter 23 and verse 45. Amos also prophesies of a day like this, when he says pointedly “And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day-Amos 8:9″.
