Welcome to One Minute Through the Bible episode

00:00:03.060 --> 00:00:06.900
18. I'm Alton Spooner. Thanks for joining me

00:00:06.900 --> 00:00:09.640
Today, I want to continue on in the first chapter

00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:13.160
of the book of Genesis. That is chapter 1 verse

00:00:13.160 --> 00:00:17.899
7 through 9 Here we see God the main character

00:00:17.899 --> 00:00:21.780
our long character at this point in the grand

00:00:21.780 --> 00:00:25.800
story of creation By the way, God is the real

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.960
hero of the biblical narrative But unlike other

00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:34.200
main characters of narratives of stories the

00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:37.820
setting the backdrop Which today in verse 7 through

00:00:37.820 --> 00:00:42.500
9 is the sky the earth the land Does not control

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:46.740
him Influence him it doesn't affect his decisions

00:00:46.740 --> 00:00:51.200
in God's story. He is the author He is the director.

00:00:51.380 --> 00:00:55.079
He is the composer as well as the main character

00:00:55.079 --> 00:01:00.929
of his story and being the composer, the director,

00:01:01.609 --> 00:01:05.109
the elements had to move in accordance to his

00:01:05.109 --> 00:01:09.870
will to build his setting. So the elements, the

00:01:09.870 --> 00:01:12.890
sky, the earth, the land, the elements march

00:01:12.890 --> 00:01:17.269
to the beat of his music when the heavens and

00:01:17.269 --> 00:01:21.109
the space was stretched out like a garment. And

00:01:21.109 --> 00:01:24.569
like a director, he commanded the waters to move

00:01:24.569 --> 00:01:29.079
in one place. He told the waters, move here then

00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.879
dry land appeared and in another place he said

00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:37.060
go there and dry land appeared and they obeyed

00:01:37.060 --> 00:01:41.140
his will you see with god even the elements the

00:01:41.140 --> 00:01:45.260
atoms the molecules heed his voice they move

00:01:45.260 --> 00:01:48.219
according to his will well that's it for today

00:01:48.219 --> 00:01:50.680
