S1.E3. The Goodness and Corruption of Creation

Doctrine of Creation: Episode Three We continue our series on the doctrine of creation by discussing the inherent goodness of creation, the ways that sin corrupts this goodness, and the implications of this for our life and faith. Here are some questions we discuss: As biblical Christians, how should we view the material world as God's creation? Why does the creation narrative in Genesis repeat God's affirmation of his creation and it's goodness? Is God's initial creation perfect? What is Gnosticism? Where do we see the influence of this ancient heresy in the world and the Church today? How do we hold together the inherent goodness of creation with our sin and all the consequences of sin? How does sin twist the desires that God has given for our good? How does God re-order our re-direct our desires? Our series on the doctrine of creation will continue in future episodes. We will cover topics like the image of God our bodies, sub-creation, sabbath, and eschatology in relation to creation.
