God Did It

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1

For You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother’s womb.
I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well. Psalm 139:13-14

For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God. Hebrews 3:4

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:20

Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You.
Jeremiah 32:17

For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen. Romans 11:36

That's the plain truth.

Why should i believe anything afterward when Genesis chapter 1 is directly contradicted by Genesis chapter 2? 🤔

Because it's the truth and there are no contradictions as you suppose. Become born again and let God's Spirit show you.

It's the truth? Hmm ok. So answer me this simple question:

Did God do creation right the first time with no issues or did God need to make corrections to his original creation?

God created everything perfect, including mankind made in His image. He didn't want robots, like I've told you before, He wanted free thinking human beings to love and obey Him.

God created everything perfect

Yeah, i thought you would say that which brings us to the contradiction i mentioned.

In Genesis chapter one we are told that god created the animals and then created man and that it was very good.
However, in Genesis chapter two we are told that god makes man and then sees that it is NOT good that the man is alone and so creates animals for companions but none are suitable and THEN he makes a woman.

So we're facing two contradictions here:

1) Were animals created before or after Adam?
2) Was god's creation very good or not good?

1) Were animals created before or after Adam?
2) Was god's creation very good or not good?

Chapter 2 is a more detailed version of chapter 1. If God wanted to create more animals, doesn't He have that right to?

Nope. A common apologetic but obviously fails to address either criticism because adding detail means adding more information to previous information, not altering previous information.

Genesis 1 says god created the animals and THEN man and called it very good while Genesis 2 says god created man, saw that it was NOT good that he was alone, made animals for companions and THAT STILL FAILED and finally created a woman.

If you can answer nothing else, answer me this: When god created Adam and this was a perfect creation.... why did he find that something about that creation was not good and seek to rectify that lack in Adam's experience?
