Genesis 1-13
Our
creator God not only created everything but also organized His creation. Our
God also allowed His creation to live and grow. Our creator God takes care of
us and allows us to live in His providence.
Moses
struggled the most with the Israelites falling into idolatry. In Genesis, the
words for Sun, Sky, and other gods are the same words that the Egyptians used
for their gods. This was to show God was above all things.
All
religions talk about an afterlife. There are promises of life after death in a
fashion. Religions normally take on ideas that cannot be controlled by us such
as the sun, the sky or death. These religions look for control of events that
are beyond our power. We cannot command the sun to rise or set; we cannot make
it rain; we cannot stop death, or when we do, it is temporary.
Unlike
other religions, we do not try to control those things that are beyond our power.
We live in this world and His providence and must remember that God is above
all. The reality is that we are under the sovereignty of God and at His mercy,
but His mercy is great.
God
named all things and gave His creation identity. God also called all things
good. God tasked Adam with naming God's creation. God allows us to share in
this glory with God. Although God named all things and set them in order, we can
still discover and name, and we can still see His divine organization.
Yet, our
world has polluted water, air, soil, and souls. God created everything with
divine understanding and perfect craftsmanship has become corrupted. God did
not spoil His creation. We corrupted God’s creation. Let us repent and work
with God in preserving His creation.
God is
the creator God who loves and takes care of His creation. God has given us
Christians new lives with truth and light, we can appreciate this new life that
God is also transforming us into the creations he always wanted us to be.
