“Seek Him that maketh the Pleiades and Orion,
And turneth the shadow of death into the morning,
And maketh the day dark with night;” “He that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind,
And declareth unto man what is His thought;” “He that buildeth His spheres in the heaven,
And hath founded His arch [Noyes’s translation] in the earth;” “He that calleth for the waters of the sea,
And poureth them out upon the face of the earth;
Jehovah is His name.”Amos 5:8; 4:13; 9:6, margin; A.R.V.

The work of creation cannot be explained by science. What science can explain the mystery of life?

“I form the light, and create darkness: ...
I the Lord do all these things....
I have made the earth,
And created man upon it:
I, even My hands, have stretched out the heavens,
And all their host have I commanded.” “When I call unto them, they stand up together.”Isaiah 45:7-12; 48:13.

In the creation of the earth, God was not indebted to pre-existing matter. “He spake, and it was; ... He commanded, and it stood fast.”Psalm 33:9. All things, material or spiritual, stood up before the Lord Jehovah at His voice and were created for His own purpose. The heavens and all the host of them, the earth and all things therein, came into existence by the breath of His mouth.
