The Bible

• How did we get the Bible?

          God chose individuals and told them what to say and write.

The Bible

• The Bible is true because it predicted what countries, or kingdoms would rule the world long before it actually happened. It also predicted when Jesus would be born and where he would be born hundreds of years before he was born!

The Bible...

• is the word of God
• used to teach us 
• straightens us out
• help us.
  
• When we read God’s Word and keep it in our minds and hearts, it will help us avoid sin.
• points us to Jesus
• will last forever 

Who is God?

Trinity means "the Godhead as one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit" This means that God is really three individuals that are ONE. 

• God the FATHER
• God the SON
• God the HOLY SPIRIT

 

Is God Really There?

• God created the world. 
• We see awesome things designed by God. 
• The world is built with design, pattern and order.
• Truth, goodness, beauty, love  must come from someone who is true, good, beautiful and loving. 
• People have a built-in sense of right and wrong. 

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

Psalms 19:11

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. 

Acts 14:15

... the living God, who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and everything in them.

1 John 4:7

Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.

Romans 2:14

Even Gentiles, who do not have God’s written law, show that they know his law when they instinctively obey it, even without having heard it.

Psalm 14:1

Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!

How can we get to know God?

• We can learn from the Bible

• Look at Nature 

• Listen to the Holy Spirit 

Luke 24:27

Then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets, explaining from all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

Romans 1:20

For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.

John 14:26

But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.

• Infinite - have no limits (Revelation 1:8)
• All powerful - can do anything (Matthew 19:26)

• Source of life  - can put life into anything they chose(Genesis 2:7)

How do we know for sure that God is really three individuals?

• When Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River, all three members of the Godhead were there. (Matthew 3:16-17)
• Jesus gave special instructions to the disciples about baptizing new believers in Matthew 28:19.
• Paul often finished his letters with the words from our memory verse. (1 Corinthians 13:14) 

Creation

• A day starts at night (an evening and a morning) 
• A human being = a physical body + God's breath

How did God create man and woman?

• Genesis 2:7 "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul."
• Genesis 21, 22 "And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man."

The Real Human Composition

To create a human being, you need the physical body (made of all the elements we talked about earlier) AND the breath of God.
