    God Begins & God Blesses

    I. The God of Creation-Same God II. The Lord God of Creation: 1. ELOHIM (1:1) - The powerful One; The transcendent One (separated from creation - II Corinthians 4:16-18, eternal) 2. YAHWEH (2:4) - The personal, relational, covenant-maker 3. EL ELYON (14:18-20) - God Most High used by Melchizedek; “Your highness” 4. EL ROI (16:13) - “The God who sees me” used by Hagar 5. EL SHADDAI (17:1) - “God Almighty” used when est a covenant w/ Abraham 6. EL OLAM (21:33) - “The Everlasting God” used by Abraham when making a treaty with Abimelech. 7. YAHWEH-YIREH (22:14) - “The God who Provides” used by Abraham when offering Isaac III. God distinguishes (separates)separation brings structure •Day 1 - Separates light from darkness (Ex. 10; 13) •Day 2 - Separates the water above from the water below •Day 3 - Separates the land from the sea •Day 4 - Separates day from night, “for signs & seasons” •Day 5 - God fills the waters; God fills the skies; then God fills the land on Day 6! •Day 6 - Fills the earth; Finishes by making mankind; Eve is made last; See 3:20 Summary in chapter 1 then Specifics on humankind in chapter 2! •Day 7 - (1) Establishes the Sabbath; (2) Sets in place how humans would live out their work week; Exodus 20:8-11; 3 distinct blessings - 1:22; 1:28; 2:3; God gets more personal. He gets intimate. He provides a boost to the humans He made! This is another level of God’s interest in us - His goodness to us IV. Four Different ways Scripture applies to humanity: 1. God blesses us - Psalm 1; Matthew 5:1-12 2. We bless God - Psalm 103 3. Some give false blessing - Psalm 62:4 4. Some refuse to bless - Psalm 109:17, 28

    Creation & Light

    God said; God saw; God called - It is powerful and personal I. The EARTH - 1:2a Was formless and void - meaning it was unfinished and uninhabited. Material is made then formed. And darkness was over the face of the deep - Gen. 1:9-10 II. The SPIRIT - 1:2b Was hovering over the face of the waters - determines, decrees, authority over, is there a veiled reference to Jesus walking on the water?  The Trinitarian Creator - John 1:1-3, 14; Col. 1:16; Heb. 1:2 III. The FIRST DAY - 1:3-5 And God said (God is verbal). - first recorded words of our Creator) - Reminds men of several occasions when Jesus spoke with great response: John 11:43; John 19:30; II Thessalonians 2:8-12; Revelation 19:13, 15, 21 “God is Light”- future description of our Creator (I John 4); Also God is love ; God is holy. And God saw (God is visual) And God called (God is definitive) - later in chapter 2 Adam would name the animals. + Creation, Separation, & Light are eventually placed in the context of the gospel of saving grace: = John 1:1-13 = Revelation 21:22-27; 22:1-5

    The Roman Road

    ROMANS 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, ROMANS 5:1-2 we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. ROMANS 5:8 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. ROMANS 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. ROMANS 10:9 if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart; that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. ROMANS 10:13 For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
