    An examination of the so-called "Biblical Creationist" doctrine in light of Genesis 1.

    One of God’s many attributes is His creativity. God has revealed this through creation and His dealings with mankind.

    God continues his creativity through us.

    GETTING CREATIVE WITH GOD If one were to ask an unbiased observer to name that institution in our society which clearly espouses creativity, we can be sure that he would not name our twentieth-century church. This is an indictment of how we Christians feel about the mandate God has given us for ...read more

    The possibility of a great regeneration presented in the book of Genesis.

    First Sermon) All Biblical texts are taken from the King James Bible Genesis For the longest time I considered the book of Genesis to be a figurative account of creation.

     | 3,376 views

    The book of Genesis starts out recording the activities of God in Creation. Some have called the Biblical account of creation a myth. I call it truth. Anything that might substitute for it, i.e., truth, can itself be considered myth. Skeptics and sc

    HE’S STILL AROUND Genesis 1 INTRODUCTION: 1. At some time during the 1960’s, I think it was, a group of skeptics attempted to popularize the idea that God was dead.

    God was at His best when he forgave a sinner on Nov. 7, 1978 in a church in Mpls. Mn.. To me that was the day God was at His best! The premise is God is at His best when he saves souls.
