Science is catching up to Genesis in realizing a transcendent God who is also personal.

1. Genesis 1:1-3
In the beginning God created the heavens
and the earth. Now the earth was formless
and empty, darkness was over the surface
of the deep, and the Spirit of God was
hovering over the waters. And God said,
‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.

2. Genesis 1:4-5
God saw that the light was good, and He
separated the light from the darkness. God
called the light ‘day,’ and the darkness He
called ‘night.’ And there was evening, and
there was morning—the first day.

3. Genesis 1:27-28
So God created man in His own image, in
the image of God He created him; male and
female He created them. God blessed
them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and
increase in number; fill the earth and
subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and
the birds of the air and over every living
creature that moves on the ground.’

4. Genesis 1:29
Then God said, ‘I give you every seed-
bearing plant on the face of the whole
earth and every tree that has fruit with
seed in it. They will be yours for food.

5. Genesis 1:30
And to all the beasts of the earth and the
birds of the air and all the creatures that
move on the ground—everything that has
the breath of life in it—I give every green
plant for food.’ And it was so.

6. Genesis 1:31-2:1
God saw all that He had made, and it was
very good. And there was evening, and
there was morning—the sixth day. Thus
the heavens and the earth were completed
in all their vast array.

7. Genesis 2:2-3
By the seventh day God had finished the
work He had been doing; so on the seventh
day He rested from all His work. And God
blessed the seventh day and made it holy,
because on it He rested from all the work
of creating that He had done.

8. There are times that in
order to GRASP the true,
we must first UNLEARN…
Darwin’s survival of the fittest is proving
UNFIT in view of new scientific discoveries.
I am not as concerned with WHEN the
beginning occurred as much as to HOW it
happened.

9. God TRANSCENDS time,
space, and creation.
Science concurs that there must be
something/someone that did not have a
BEGINNING but always existed.
When God created plants, animals, and
people, they appear FULLY FORMED.

10. God continues to be
INVOLVED with that which
He created.
Science is CATCHING up to Genesis in
realizing a transcendent God Who is also
PERSONAL.
Faith is not dependent on the
CONFIRMATION of science; however, it is
encouraging to see science AFFIRMING the
reasonableness of faith.

11. We are created in the
IMAGE of God
God desires to BLESS
It is time that we truly LISTEN, and believe,
that where we may not always know God’s
reasons, we can TRUST our Father’s heart.
