Bible Study for Theology 33 - Genesis 1:1-23


The photo was taken a couple of Sundays ago when we decided to take Sunday School out into God's creation to soak in the beauty and wonder of it. It seems a good opportunity to use it to illustrate this week's reading which tells of God speaking the world into being.

This evening some of us will be meeting to explore this week's reading from Genesis. We shall be considering the following questions:
1. "In the beginning...." How can we know what really happened in the beginning?

2. Do you think that this is literal account? Why or why not?

3. Why does the story tell us that God speaks? Who was there to hear it?

4. Wha pattern(s) (if any) do you see in this account?

5. Why do you think that God's actions are divided into 'days' here?

6. What does this account tell us about God? Make a list.
