Creation

Creation:

Genesis 1:1-2

In the begining God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. -These two verses show that God is very powerful. God is a God of creation. God loves life.

Genesis 1:3-5

And God said,"Let there be light and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good , and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light "day" and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning-the first day.-God is almighty. God creates everyday for us.

God continued creating for six days altogether.

On the sixth day God created man. Many say that this is considered to be the second creation.

Genesis 1:27-28

So God created man in his own image, in the image of god he created him; male and female he created them. 28God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the saw and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

On the seventh day God rested.

Genesis 2:2-3

By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done. -Believers in God rest on the seventh day
