Listen from:
“Wherefore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.” Hebrews 7:2525Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. (Hebrews 7:25)
One day a six-year-old boy asked his mother, “Where did God come from?”
“It is hard to understand,” she answered, “but maybe this will help us.” She took off her wedding ring, handed it to him and asked, “Where does this ring begin and where does it end?”
The boy turned the ring over and over in his hands and finally answered, “There isn’t any starting place or stopping place.”
Then his mother explained, “It is exactly the same way with God there was no beginning to God, and there will be no end to God. He always has been, and He always will be.”
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made.” John 1:1-31In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. (John 1:1‑3).
