My understanding Of God

God is creator and ruler of all things because he created heaven and earth. God sets stipulations and regulations known as the Ten Commandments; he shields and provides for his people, and punishes them for any wrong doing. In the beginning of time, God created the entire universe. He separated the light from the dark, the oceans from the dry lands and created all people, wildlife, and animals. The first people that God created were Adam and Eve. When God created Adam, he provided him with a wife named Eve. Eve was made from Adam’s rib. God provided Adam and Eve with everything they needed while they were living in the Garden of Eden. All their food sources came from the wildlife around them such as food from the trees, and drinks from the rivers. The story of Adam and Eve started in the Garden of Eden, in which Adam and Eve were living. God sets one rule for them and it is to not eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Although there is only one rule set on them, both Adam and Eve both disobeyed and ate of the tree anyway. God punishes anyone that disobeys him and will wipe out the whole universe if he has to. I say this because he destroyed the earth before and only spared one family. The family he spared was Noah’s family and his animals. All that were saved were his three sons and their wives, his wife, and a pair of every animal on the ark. By Noah building the ark, God protected his family and all of the animals from total destruction. Being a good parent involves punishing your child for any wrong doing. In Genesis, there are many occasions where God punishes someone or something. For instance, when Adam and Eve disobeyed God’s rule about not eating of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, God punishes Adam, Eve, and the serpent that tricked Adam and Eve into eating the fruit. The serpent is punished with losing his legs, therefore making him slither along the ground for ever after. God tells Adam that he will work hard for his food, and
