  1. Evening & Morning: the 1st DayGenesis 1:1-31 Grace Community Church 2013

  2. Genesis 1:3-5 3And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

  3. 2Timothy 2:14-15 14Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to quarrel about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

  4. Principles of Hermeneutics • Observe – What does it say? • Interpret– What does it mean? • Application– What should I do? Resources: • Living By the Book – Howard Hendricks • How to Study Your Bible – Kay Arthur • Basics Bible Interpretation – Roy Zuck • Basics of Bible Int. – Bob Smith (free online)

  5. How should we understand Genesis 1? Various Views • Plainest Reading – 6 days (24 hour periods). View from Moses to Darwin. Except Augustine (400 AD) who agreed with George Burns. • Denver: Did you create the world in 6 days? • God: No. • Denver: I knew it! • God: I thought about it in five and created it in one. I work better under pressure.

  6. How should we understand Genesis 1? Various Views • Plainest Reading – 6 days (24 hour periods) • Day-Age Theory – “days” are geological ages • Theistic Evolution • Progressive Creation • Gap Theory - break in time between vs. 1 and 2. • Biological life before verse 2. • No biological life before verse 2. • Framework Hypothesis – days are literary device.

  7. Exodus 20:8-11 8“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

  8. Mark 10:6-9 6But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ 7 ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, 8 and the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”

  9. Romans 5:12-15 12Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned— 13 for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. 14 Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come. 15 But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.

  10. John 2:7-10 7Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.” So they took it. 9 When the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom 10 and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.”

  11. John 6:9-11 9“There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are they for so many?” 10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, about five thousand in number. 11 Jesus then took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated. So also the fish, as much as they wanted.

  12. Do you differ? • Be a Berean– Acts 17:10–11 10The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived they went into the Jewish synagogue. 11 Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so. • Be Humble
