In The Beginning: Genesis 1-11
By Scott Mackay
History? Myth? Something else? The story of origins in Genesis 1-11 has been the source of much controversy within the body of Christ. And while it's important to discuss the scientific and historical questions, this part of the Bible has a far greater significance that has often been overlooked. Genesis 1-11 paints a picture of God's relationship with all that he has made, and ultimately points us to Christ who is the eternal Word and source of all grace for fallen humanity. In a world where so many people try to live without purpose, or attempt to create their own meaning, Genesis 1-11 provides a solid source of hope and meaning.
