“The Handprint of God” Genesis 1:1-2:3

TRANSCRIPT

Date: May 30, 2021 Author: Wayne J. Edwards

The difference between “can’t” and “won’t” is a matter of one’s will. The evidence for the existence of God is before the eyes of every person on earth. God has revealed Himself in a language understandable by everyone, regardless of their age or intellect. But as the Apostle Paul said in Romans 1:18-32, such knowledge is rejected by those who refuse to submit to His divine authority. It isn’t that they “can’t” see it – they “won’t” see it. By every statistical measure, the Christian church in the West is in great danger. We are losing our children to the intellectual elites whose worldview denies (not disproves) the existence of God. While we must intentionally share the gospel with our children, our message must begin with the existence of God as evidenced by His creation, and that every person, born and unborn, is created in the image of God, and for His purpose.

In developing our Biblical Worldview, Christians cannot cede the Book of Genesis just because it differs with the accepted science of evolution!

The first step in developing a Biblical Worldview is to get a Biblical view of God, and God has revealed Himself to all mankind in three unique ways:

Paul identified the “invisible things of God” as:

Astronomers estimate that there are over 100 billion stars in our galaxy alone, and ours is one of at least 400 billion galaxies.

What the Hubble Telescope did to show God’s handprint in the creation of the universe, the lighted, electron microscope did to reveal God’s handprint in the creation of mankind.

“ By Him were all things created, visible and invisible; all things were created by Him and for Him; He is before all things, and by Him all things consist!”

Colossians 1:16-17
