This is US: This is Creation

 

Being created is us. By His Word God fully creates me and all that is. The first major theme of the Bible is that God has created and sustains all that is. In the New Testament the theme of creation grows to include that Jesus created all that is, that through Jesus God is recreating us and all that is, and that there will be a new heaven and a new earth. It is helpful for each of us to understand the original blessing of God’s creation in a personal way - that God has personally, lovingly, and carefully created each of us to be in an eternal and perfect relationship with God and all of creation.

About the series: This Is Us – God’s Word Our Story

This series will help us understand the Bible more deeply by exploring six great themes of the Bible: Creation, Rebellion, Chosen, Redemption, Living, Promise. Using passages from both the Old Testament and New Testament each week, we will see how each of the six themes develops through the Bible. The goal is for us to more deeply understand God’s written Word as we see that God’s Word is our story and our story is found in God’s Word. We hope that by the end of this series we will more fully understand who we are, who God is, and how completely God loves us. The theme of community/relationship will flow through whole series.
