The great spectacle of God’s creation: Part 1 of 3

Dear Editor,                    Although Mankind will never see the full extent and splendor of the spectacle of God’s great creations, nevertheless, He created everything on, and in, Heaven and Earth, seen and unseen!   From the dust of the Earth, which He spoke into being, He created and formed Adam, in God’s image. He turned Adam into flesh, with trillions of cells, then He breathed a spirit/soul into him, and “man became a living soul.” A full-grown Man.   God put Adam to sleep, removed a rib, then formed Eve, a woman, and gave her a spirit/soul, and she became Adam’s wife.

There were cane bottom chairs in the store and often people would sit and chat for a while.  Regardless of how many times during the week I walked down the road to that store, the opening salutation was typically “howdy.”  People were in and out of the Hinkle store…

Do you deny that the Biden Administration opened…
