Creation Reveals

the Glory of God

(Genesis 1)

The book of

Genesis starts

with the creation

of the world by

God.

Day 1 Light, Day and Night

Day 4 Sun, Moon, Stars

Day 5 Sea Creatures & Birds

Day 6 Land Animals & Man

Day 7 Rest (2:1-3)

God is ETERNAL

and has always

been GLORIOUS!

Since the beginning,

God’s POWER and

invisible qualities

have been revealed in

what He has made.

We are without an

excuse to deny

knowing God exists.

The Evidence

The UNIVERSE

declares God’s

glory. (Ps. 19:1)

The heavens declare

the glory of God;

the skies proclaim

the work of his

hands. (Ps. 19:1)

“One day after

another day causes

speech to bubble

forth, and one night

after another night

shows forth

knowledge.”

(Ps. 19:2)

“But into all the

earth their sound

has gone out, and to

the ends of the

inhabited earth their

message.”

(Ps. 19:3-4)

The SUN declares

God’s glory.

(Ps. 19:4-6)

(Ps. 19:4-6)

The awesome

STARS and

galaxies glorify

God. (Ps. 147:4;

Job 38:31; Ps. 8:3-

4)

70 sextillion

Jehovah is

“counting the

number of the

stars; all of them

he calls by their

names.” Ps. 147:4

“Can you bind the

chains of the

Pleiades?

Can you loosen

Orion’s belt?”

Job 38:31

Psalm 8:3-4

The earth and its

CREATURES glorify

God. (Ps. 148)

“Praise the LORD

from the earth,

you great sea

creatures and all

ocean depths!”

(Psalm 148:7)

“Praise the Lord…

you mountains and all

hills, you fruit trees and

all cedars.”

Ps. 148:9

“Praise Him… wild

animals and all cattle,

small creatures and

flying birds.”

Psalm 148:10

If God’s creation

speaks to all

people why do we

need to WITNESS

or send

MISSIONARIES?

Creation provides

us with SOME

knowledge of

God.

But it does not

provide us with

SAVING

knowledge of

God.

Creation is

DISTORTED by SIN.
