Genesis 1:1-31
As we embark on our journey through the book of Genesis, we're invited to marvel at the magnificent architecture of the Bible. From creation to redemption, we see God's sovereign plan unfold. The first verse, 'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth,' sets the stage for understanding our Creator's power and majesty. This isn't just about gaining knowledge; it's about experiencing the person of God in our lives. As we study, we're challenged to see Jesus not just as the babe in the manger or the Savior on the cross, but as the eternal, creating God who cares deeply for us. This perspective should transform how we view our place in creation and our relationship with the Almighty. Are we living as mere spectators of God's word, or are we allowing it to penetrate our hearts and change our lives?
