Let's ask google and see what google has to say, ok?

Yes, the Bible implies that God created the universe from nothing, a doctrine known as creation ex nihilo:

• Genesis 1:1
  The first sentence of the Bible states, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth".
  
  
• Hebrews 11:3
  This verse states, "By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible".
  
  
• Other biblical passages
  Romans 4:17 and Colossians 1:16 also support the doctrine of creation ex nihilo.

The meaning of the word "created" is the question. The Hebrew bara is create and the word asah means make something out of something that already exists. But, the Bible creates a gray area by using these interchangeably . For instance, Bara does not always mean to create out of nothing. God created the first male and female humans (Gen 5:2). But, we know from Gen 2:22 that God FORMED Adam from the dust of the earth and fashioned Eve from the rib of Adam. So, making a strong distinction between bara and asah in Genesis 1:1 is as unjustified as making a distinction between create and make in English. So, creation ex nihilo is something conjured up by some ministers and churches to control the narrative for magical things they do not understand. We have to then rely on Prophets to answer the question in our modern day English. Fortunately, some of us recognize that God has again supplied the Earth with Prophets and Apostles in these latter-days.

To your second point, the "Word" is Jesus Christ .So, Jesus Christ made the Heavens and the Earth out of matter yet unorganized. That's why they were not visible. The matter had to be formed or framed using gravity for one thing. So, your verses you use out of context and understanding give your understanding.

Revelation 4:11

Did God create the universe from nothing?

God brought all of creation into existence from nothing. There is no substance that eternally existed that God used to form the universe.

Says who? I already explained that bara cannot mean ONLY from nothing. It is used many times with asas. But, you will not let yourself learn new things because you have been brainwashed to think of magical nonsense when it comes to God. I suppose you think God is so big he fills the universe and yet so small he can enter your heart. Such utter nonsense to believe. Satan is laughing at you.

This is just dumb. Why would they claim Mary to be Palestinian? She is descended from King David, of Judah. Therefore, from human genealogy, she is from the tribe of Judah as would Jesus Christ. Joseph is not Jesus human biological father. Father in Heaven is. But, Joseph adopted Jesus and Joseph is also a descendent of Judah, Jewish. The present day Palestinians are not descendant from Judah. End of debate.

Both Palestinians and Jews are descended from Canaanites .

It's hysterical to listen to him double talk. So, there was nothing but God. So, from what did God figure out that there could be matter in the form of energy or solids that could become a universe of galaxies and things like animals, insects, humans and all manner of life? He knew nothing yet knew about everything? LOL This is the mystical BS that Satan wants us to believe so we can't love a real glorified living man. Instead, Satan keeps you in darkness from knowing your Father in Heaven lives and is a real glorified resurrected human being. Something tangible you can hug and receive love from. Satan will never have a resurrected body that we can love and that can love us. Therefore, he wants you to be miserable in eternity with him. I know my redeemer lives too. That he has now a resurrected body and is a glorified human being. Do you believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ? Is Jesus Christ God? If you say yes to both, then God has a body of flesh and bones. End of your nonsense stories.
