What Kind of Man Indeed

01 27 Genesis 1:24-27 What separates man from animals? It is the fact that we, of all God’s creation, have been made in His likeness and image.  Sin has marred that image, an image that is His character in us.  Redemption renews that image and God’s Spirit works to develop that image in us.  I John 3:3 says that one day that image will be completed. We are special, because God says so.

Oh What A Day

01 20 Genesis 1.3-23 The days of creation were magnificent.  God had it all planned out.  The day is exact, the design is exceptional and His delight is expressive.  Each day God makes distinctions.  For example there is the distinction between light and darkness and between land and sea.  He is a God of order and at the end He said it was all good.  He couldn’t do any better and He wouldn’t change a thing.  It was excellent.

It’s Creative Not Chaotic

01 13 Genesis 1:2 Verse 2 provides a lot of confusion regarding origins.  Was there a gap between verse 1 and 2 of long ages?  Did God help the process of evolution?  Were they long days of millions of years?  It’s can be a challenge to understand.  This message provides my understanding of the verse in conjunction with the rest of chapter 1.  It’s day one at the beginning of it all.

The Evidence of God in Creation

01 06 Genesis 1:1 There is a lot of debate these days about the creation account of Genesis vs. evolution and the variations of that theory.  We’ll be looking at the Genesis account and what God’s Word says.  “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”  The attack isn’t just on the creation account recorded for us in Scripture, it’s also an attack on the authority of God’s Word.  In this message we consider four truths evident in the opening verse.  They are evident in creation.  We see the person of God, the presence of God, the power of God and the purpose of God.  Throughout Scripture we see one very important truth evident for why God created – it’s all for His glory.  Join the heavens and the earth in declaring the glory of God.
