Once Upon A Time: The Story Begins | Genesis 1

LS Community Church live Sunday gathering; teaching by Stan Rodda.

 

Genesis 1:13, 1:26-28, 1:31, 2:15-17, 3:1-7, 3:15 Hebrews 11:3, 1 Corinthians 15:54-57

 

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the watery depths, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 

Genesis 1:1-3 CSB

 

This is followed by six days of work. God separates day and night. He separates the waters above and below. He makes dry land appear. He causes the earth to produce vegetation. He puts the sun, moon and stars in the sky. Then creates fish and birds. Followed by animals on the dry ground. And when creation begins to teem with life.

 

But like most stories beginning with “Once upon a time,” no matter how picturesque the opening scene, it doesn’t usually last long. And the plot immediately thickens. And the same holds true in Genesis. The joyful, powerful opening scene comes crashing down when God’s creation falls.
