April 19 Creation Story Genesis 1:1-2:3 Pg. 5 - 22
The purpose of the "Creation Story" (Genesis 1:1-2:3) was not to explain God's creations from a scientific point of view. It presents the realization that behind the material appearance of the universe is the "One God" , the God of all creation. It presents God, the world, and humankind in relationship to each other and reveals the basic and unalterable dependence of the world on the presence of God.
