About this episode

This episode discusses the significance of God's creation as described in Genesis, emphasizing the importance of understanding the who, what, and why of our origins rather than the mechanics of creation.

I read this quote while studying for the current series we’re in. “It is always dangerous to shout where God has whispered” (Sproul and Wolgemuth). That is to say, don’t get too worked up about things on which the Bible is not clear. Another way of saying it would be to not elevate secondary and tertiary doctrinal issues to the level of primary ones, trying to make something that is personal preference a biblical conviction. As we look at the days of creation in Genesis 1:3-25 this Sunday, we’ll be challenged to hear what God says and be struck by that alone, rather than by the endless speculations about the mechanics and processes of the creation. We’ll focus on the who, what, and why of our origins rather than the how . And in it all we’ll see the LORD at work in his world and in our lives. We are not to miss that when God said, “Let there be light…”, he meant that not only in the creation of the sun but in the eventual giving of his Son as the true “light of the world."
