“In the Beginning” isn’t just the opening line of Genesis; it’s the foundation of faith that stands against every ill-conceived notion man has cooked up about existence. This study dares to confront the stubborn skepticism of science with the unshakable truth of Scripture. It boldly declares that God created the heavens and the earth—not chance, not chaos, not a cosmic accident. And oh, how the world tries to twist this truth! Evolution, with its ifs, ands, and buts, stumbles around in the dark while God’s Word remains a lamp unto our feet (Psalm 119:105).
In these verses, we see the Spirit of God moving over the face of the waters—searching, separating light from darkness. Just as He brought order and life into that void, He calls us out from our own spiritual darkness into His marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9). It's time to stop questioning with idle curiosity and start believing with childlike faith. God didn’t stutter when He laid out the foundation of the earth, and He hasn’t left the maintenance of creation up to man’s whim. Let the truth of Genesis rattle the foundations of disbelief and remind you that God’s purpose in creation was not just to make a world but to find you and bring you into His light. That’s the God we serve—intentional, powerful, and unbelievably gracious.
