Sermon Notes 2023 Why Does It Matter? WINTER 2023: Why Does Anything Matter? January 1 – February 21, 2023 God Created . . . Everything! Genesis 1:1-2:3 DIVINE ACT OF SALVATION CELEBRATION OF THE LORD’S SUPPER DIVINE ACT OF CREATION The Bible portrays creation as divine activity that results in the appearance of and the ordering of the heavens and earth. Creation flows out of who God is. It is a natural expression of his attributes . . . God’s attributes intrinsically lead to his creative work just as they lead to his salvific work. God needs no motivation to create; it simply flows from who he is. He does not need to create; he is the Creator. When we honor and serve him, it is in recognition of those attributes. -John H. Walton, Genesis Creation is an act of divine Revelation. God’s self-revelation through creation fills the created universe with purpose. Science, Biblical Texts, Theological Reflection Creation exists due to God’s express will and desire. Thus, creation reveals and reflects the majesty and glory of God!
