More about the book of Genesis. A lot of people,
when they read Genesis, they want to get into
science and the theories of evolution, Darwinism,
the Big Bang Theory. First off, the book of Genesis
is not a science book. I'm gonna say that again.
The book of Genesis is not a science book. That
is not the priority of Moses to teach science.
to make an explanation of the material world.
Moses is not trying to tell you how atoms form
or molecules or complex molecules or carbon atoms
or how the gases gathered through gravitational
forces and created stars in the sky in the heavens.
Moses is not an astronomer or astrophysicist.
Okay, Moses was a shepherd. That a lot of people
need to get that through the head when they read
the book of Genesis Moses was a shepherd Moses
was a simple humble man. He didn't even want
the job Okay, so when he was writing the book
of Genesis Moses had a relationship with God
and through that relationship Moses was giving
you the creation the way God wanted it to unravel
to man, which is a Origin book that is centered
around him Not centered around atoms, not centered
around molecules, but an origin book that is
centered around God. When God conveys a message,
he wants to reach the lowest common denominator
in man. He's not trying to reach the man that
has the ability to understand the most complex
ideas in physics. Talking about spiritual matters
not physical matters because the spiritual precedes
the physical the spiritual precedes the physical
So it's not the atoms and the molecules that
are important, but the Word of God That's what's
important. And so that's what the book of Genesis
in its creation story does it doesn't center
Center or it's not based on physical principles
It's based on a relationship with God and thus
is therefore is spiritual check back with me
