GOD, THE CREATOR


Genesis 1:1-2:3

Key Verse 1:1


In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.



Read verses 1-2. What do these verses tell us about God? What does “the beginning” refer to? Why is the word “created” significant? 




Answer the following for each day of creation:

What was made?

What was the purpose for which God made it?


Describe the order in which God made the heavens and the earth? What does this show about God?




What do the words, “And God said…And it was so” tell us about how God made the world? 




What do these other repeated phrases tell us about God? 

“And God saw that it was [very] good”

“According to its various kinds”

“God called…”



 

What do verses 26-27 tell us about man’s: 1) design; 2) purpose? What does this tell us about our relationship to God? What does it mean to “rule over” the earth? How is this also God’s blessing ? (28) How did God provide for man? (29) What difference does it make to know that God created man in this way? 




What did God do on the seventh day? (2:1-3) Why?
