scripture: genesis 1:1-1:25

Jesus is Lord of every purpose

In the first eleven chapters of Genesis, we find a record of the creation of the universe and of mankind, (chapters 1 & 2). We also find the origin of human depravity & sin in the “fall of man” shown in Genesis chapter 3. We see its devastating effects in the wickedness of mankind & its horrible consequences in the judgment of God in the curse (chapters 3 & 4), in the flood (chapters 6-9), and in the confusion at Babel (chapter 11). We also see the grace of God in His provisions for mankind’s salvation, beginning with the promise of salvation in Genesis 3:15, and being demonstrated in the ark and God’s covenant with Noah (chapters 6-9).

Génesis, tiene respuestas a la mayoría de preguntas que los seres humanos hemos hecho durante toda nuestra existencia. No solo esto, sino también anticipa en muchas maneras algunos temas esenciales que se desarrollan hasta siglos después en la persona y la obra de Jesucristo.
