GENESIS: BEGINNINGS
Genesis is a book of beginnings. It references the beginning of all created things: space, time, matter, energy, stars, planets, moons. We see the beginning of the earth: water, air, land, plant life, animal life and the origin of human beings in God’s image. Sadly, this book of beginnings also documents the beginning of sin, humanity’s rebellion against the Creator. But God was not surprised by the fall into sin, and Genesis also documents the beginning of redemption, the hope that one day God would bless all the peoples of the earth through a Messiah who would come through a chosen race.
