When you think of the term “creation,” you probably think of Genesis, but Scripture actually references God’s creative acts throughout the Bible. You’ll find references or allusions to creation (and even the flood) in the Psalms, in Job, throughout the Prophets, and more. And Jesus even references creation in the New Testament. However, Genesis was written as a clear cosmology, as it was written in historical narrative. So to understand the details, we first need to take Genesis as written.
What Jesus says about creation reminds us that, if we want to be faithful to his Word, we must take Genesis as literal history—just like he did!
Now, what Jesus says about creation reminds us that, if we want to be faithful to his Word, we must take Genesis as literal history—just like he did!
Yes, Jesus believed in a literal Genesis. And if we want to be faithful to his Word, we need to believe as he did!
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
