501 15,1 |          is totally by the will of God.~But what if gradualism
502 15,1 |          is not the living word of God? Absolutely Not! The trustworthiness
503 15,1 |             And just what work did God rest from on day 7?~The
504 15,1 |          or of something else. But God gives it a body as he has
505 15,1 |         followed by man. These are God's creation limits. There
506 15,1 |           point Genesis is making.~God is not concerned in Genesis
507 15,1 |     consistently presented is that God is the Creator and maker
508 15,1 |            exists in the universe. God is the author of time, space,
509 15,1 |             Scripture is declaring God's sovereignty over all things.
510 15,1 |            developing relationship God has planned for His creation,
511 15,1 |         man relates differently to God than does a horse. This
512 15,1 |            It is not necessary for God to have created all the
513 15,1 |   important point to grasp is that God has created a new limit.
514 15,1 |       created a new limit. Just as God has ordered the natural
515 15,1 |          of evolution can overcome God's limits. God rested from
516 15,1 |         can overcome God's limits. God rested from His work of
517 15,1 |        limitations placed on it by God. These limitations have
518 15,2 |       focus on the relationship of God with His creation, and the
519 15,2 |    creation, and the creation with God. Using the pattern described
520 15,2 |            and man.~ ~Plants.~“And God said, Let the earth bring
521 15,2 |        itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good” (Gen
522 15,2 |            for the sake of showing God is responsible for all the

526 15,2 |         picture of creation, where God forms the earth complete,
527 15,2 |          shade trees. The next day God begins early by stocking

531 15,2 |         them. It does not say that God created plants out of nothing.
532 15,2 |          It does not even say that God made them by forming dirt
533 15,2 |         brought forth plants. When God said “Let the earth bring
534 15,2 |         itself by the natural laws God had instituted at the big
535 15,2 |     without all the fancy tools at God's command.~As was mentioned
536 15,2 |        until early in day 5, after God had begun creating the swarming

538 15,2 |          and it does not eliminate God if it is ever proven correct.~ ~
539 15,2 |          The Flesh of Fish.~ ~“And God said, Let the waters bring
540 15,2 |           firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and
541 15,2 |           fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good” (Gen
542 15,2 |           mentioned since verse 1. God created. Created what? Every
543 15,2 |      monsters. All were created by God but brought forth by the
544 15,2 |           organisms of day 3? What God did is so incredible that

566 15,2 |     special privilege. In His love God has made it possible for
567 15,2 |            out of the stones. Now, God would have to directly intervene
568 15,2 |          Him that is of concern to God.~Science tells us the genetic
569 15,2 |        true. But either way it was God who formed the body of man.~

572 15,2 |         was already nephesh before God would now become neshamah —
573 15,2 |             the first man. What if God then placed Adam in a special
574 15,2 |        Adam would have been alone. God could have created Eve in
575 15,2 |         relationship of the living God for His creation and the
576 15,4 |               To us who believe in God these new findings say that,
577 15,5 |            Creator of the world is God. All existing species He
578 15,5 |      shaping are manifestations of God’s omnipotence, His will;

581 15,6 |            genesis of soul in man: God created internal man and
582 15,6 |         When making the human body God used some pre-existing material,

736 25   |      should clearly know that only God is the source of happiness,
737 25   |        happiness, peace and bliss. God created consolations and
