Only God Before the universe sprang into existence at the sound of God's voice , there was only God. There was nothing outside of God, because there was nothing bigger than God ; no void, and no vacuum of space. In darkness He dwelt in darkness. The word 'darkness' khaw-sakחשך means 'restrained, reserved, hide, obscure, conceal'. It is a symbol of love. If you are in sin, and not getting hit by lightning, you are receiving the grace, love, patience, long-suffering of God. He is restraining himself from destroying you; covering your sin. Jesus said to stop presuming upon the grace of God and be Holy. God created language Before God could say, "Let there be light" he had to have an alphabet and words. He made a language unlike any other. Words get their meaning from the meaning of the letters, and letters get their meaning from the strokes within the letters. The meaning cannot be fully discerned until after the revelation of Christ 4000 years later. The Hebrew alphabet is a message of Christ created 4000 years before Christ. Each jot (yod י) and tittle or horn (vav ו) speaks of Christ. Many mock the idea without having examined it. This alone is a proof of God. If a book purported to be written in 2000 B.C. and it said that a man had "met his Waterloo", it would be discarded as a fraud. The phase had no meaning until it became a metaphor for Napolean's great loss many years later. Yet the defining events for the metaphor of the Hebrew letters happened 4000 years after the language was invented, and we know that there is no fraud since they are accurately preserved. Wicked men observe that God expressed his power in words, but attribute the power to the words rather than to God. They claim that if you learn the word with it's power, you can control the thing. In novels concerning magic, the wizard learns the ancient word for fire in order to control fire. The Rabbis teach that by learning the words of creation one can nullify the works of God. The words do not have power. God does. The enemies of God would deceive many with the promise of power which they can never have. His unspeakable name His name was something like 'ee-oo-ee'. Spelled yod-vav-yod. It is hidden in the aleph א. It is the name of God which cannot be pronounced (this is a riddle). The aleph is a silent letter, so his hidden name is also silent. The idea that one takes dominion over something by naming it is Biblical in it's source. Adam was given dominion over the animals and named them. God's name is hidden because no one can have dominion over him. The name Yaweh יהוה is not a name that he has forbidden us to speak. It is the name he gave Moses and told him to use it. The two names sound similar. }}

"The Talk" is the "Hello World" of theology. Before we we get into religious discussions, The Talk resets the way we think about reality, sets some theological expectations, and answers some of the questions thought to be unanswerable.
