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 2 Sky and Seas
Day 3 Dry Land & Vegetation
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.
