The Genesis Debate
This Sunday we will look more into the biblical and scientific claims of creation. Was the creation formed in six sequential days, each 24 hours long? Or, was creation six sequential ages of time of unspecified but finite duration. Perhaps the creation days are presented as normal days, but the picture of God's creating in six days and resting on the seventh is figurative. Click on the video to see some of John Piper's views on creation, including these issues. Derek will be leading us in our study and will present the arguments from leading evangelicals on each of these views. What will your conclusion be?

Last week, I mentioned in class that thinking about the magnificence of God's creation, coupled with the sinfulness of man(especially myself) has led me to further wonder at God's grace through the gift of His son's life, death and resurection. Unfortunately, I get so bogged down at work with minutia that I tend to forget this when I need it most. Why do I care (and complain)that I have to go to a meeting when the universe was created by God, it is trillions of light years broad, and He loved me enough to send His son to die?
