The opening chapters of Genesis teach us fundamental truths about God. We watch Him bring light after darkness, creating something out of nothing—all through the power of His Word. Revisit familiar stories, challenge your basic knowledge, and discover deeper meanings in the text. As God reveals Himself through Scripture, we can only begin to understand ourselves when we first glimpse the character, attributes, and promises of our Creator. – Welcome to our study on Genesis 1-11, In His Image: Discovering Christ through Creation! – Why Genesis 1-11 Genesis 1-11 contains some of the most well-known stories in the Bible: the creation of the world, the fall of humanity, the flood, and the Tower of Babel. These narratives are not just ancient history; they are foundational in understanding who God is, who we are, and how we relate to Him. By studying these chapters, we gain insight into the character of God, the nature of humanity, and the overarching story of redemption, culminated in Christ. WHAT TO EXPECT Throughout this study, we will: Examine the Creation Accounts: We will look at the creation of the universe and humanity and explore what it means to be made in the image of God. Understand the Fall: We will delve into the story of Adam and Eve, to examine the consequences of sin and the promise of redemption. Explore the Nature of Humanity: We will study the following stories: Cain and Abel, Noah and the Flood, and the Tower of Babel. We will see how these events set the stage for God’s plan of salvation. Discover Christ in Genesis: We will trace the foreshadowing of Christ and God’s redemptive plan through these early chapters. As we study Genesis 1-11, we will focus on several key themes: The Nature of God: His power, creativity, and desire for a relationship with humanity. The Image of God in Humanity: Define what it means for us to be created in His likeness. Sin and Redemption: The impact of sin and the hope of salvation through Christ Jesus. God’s Sovereignty and Grace: His control over history, and His unending grace towards humanity. Thomas Road’s mission is to “change our world by developing Christ-followers who love God and love people.” We do this through practicing the values of Scripture, Prayer, Worship, Community, Serving, and Sharing. At Thomas Road, we want to clearly identify the “Head,” “Heart,” and “Hands” of each study before we begin: Head: We will know this foundational truth that when we learn who God is, we learn who we are designed to be. We can then connect the dots between God’s creation, His promises, and the ultimate fulfillment of those promises through Jesus Christ. Heart = We will believe and value that from the initial stories of Genesis, God reveals His plan, from the start of human history, to fix our brokenness through the image of His Son, Jesus Christ. Hands = We will be able to do this: live as image bearers of the living God, replicate His Son in our broken world, and actively lead others into the saving knowledge of Him. Study Structure Throughout this study, we will explore three key terms to help us discover the Word of God, learn about each verse, and rightly apply these scriptures into our lives. “DISCOVER” is digging into what the passage says. These questions will push us to understand the passage’s setting, keywords, and the overall context of the main message. “LEARN” is investigating specifically what was being taught in the verses we read. These questions will teach us about the triune God, what the passage reveals about our part in the story, and what the writer tries to convey to the audience. “APPLY” is where we will be challenged to find practical ways to implement the teachings from each passage into our everyday life.
