The word of God (the Bible, the scriptures) begins in Genesis in the Old Testament with God creating everything including angels but one angel chose to defy God and was thrown out of Heaven and given the Earth (which was created by God) to manage and God, while still very involved with people, quit living among humans . But in the New Testament God chose to live among humans again and did so by impregnating an unmarried virgin and being born in a barn. He was rejected and killed but whereas in the Old Testament He sent prophets, in the new testament He sent apostles and even though the written word, the scriptures, are completed, He still sends humans and is very much involved in human lives and the end of times will happen when final destinations will be determined by the way people have lived their lives and the destinations will be final.
