“Generations”
In the genealogy of Adam’s descendants, we see the beginnings of God’s victory over death in Christ Jesus.
“Made to Worship”
God finds us where we are, and invites us to repent: to change our lives by changing our minds. God welcomes us back to Him with love, not wrath, ready to show us His unfathomable mercy.
“Humanity Fallen”
The fall of Adam & Eve (Genesis 3) is the fall of all humanity. We are not now what we ought to be, what God created us to be. Since Adam, we have been dead in sin (Ephesians 2:1). But Jesus Christ has begun the curse’s reversal, winning life for all who trust in Him.
“Human Doing”
Genesis 1 and 2 are distinct, related creation stories, that — when held together — reveal to us God’s design for human beings: to work with Him as stewards of His good world, and to work with each other in Christian relationships.
“Human Being”
We see the fullest expression of the Image of God in Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:15). Jesus Christ is the new beginning of the restoration of our ability to reflect God’s Image after sin (2 Corinthians 3:18). And Jesus Christ is our pattern in the meantime.
Beginnings: Creation
Creation bears the mark of its Creator, reflecting and revealing His character. When we pay attention to creation, we see living, tangible expressions of God’s heart of love.
