Message Before Creation [∞]
In pre-600 AD Hebrew, before the introduction of vowel markings (nikud), words derived their meaning from the letters themselves, each letter carrying its unique significance. This ancient form of Hebrew reveals layers of meaning that aren't immediately obvious to modern readers. The very alphabet seems to communicate profound truths about God, His creation, and His eternal plan.
For example, Adam's name (אדם) is in the word 'ground' (אדמה) 'adamah'. Adam, in this context, had Spirit (א) and blood (דם). The word for "blood" (דם) also reflects a commandment (ד) fulfilled by the Son (ם), pointing to a deeper theological truth as a metaphor of the cross used 4000 years before it is defined by the cross.
Since God spoke creation into existence and used letters to form words, the alphabet predates creation itself. Every letter has its own meaning, and when read in order, they form a message from God—one that reaches back before creation.

Reflect on what you've been taught in church, or perhaps by evangelists—whether in sermons or books. What is the key feature that is absent from this message?
THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION.
From the very beginning, there is no condemnation. His love for you precedes creation itself. The Lamb was slain before the foundations of the earth, and from before creation, God’s plan for your redemption was already in motion. There is no condemnation in His love—only the promise of life and restoration through Christ.
