CreationEvolution Time 6 days4-6 billion years Method God’s Word chance Man a special creaturea higher animal Man’s purpose to glorify Godno special purpose Man’s to Godonly to himself responsibility Let’s Compare!

The idea that man is god = Humanism

God is God = Creationism

Hebrews 11:3 says that it is By faith we understand that the universe was formed by the Word of God.

GOD GAVE MANKIND SPECIAL BLESSINGS 1. The image of God (Holiness, sinlessness) 2. Authority and rule over other creatures 3. Marriage, home, family 4. The opportunity to serve and obey him. Genesis 1:27 Genesis 2:15-17 Genesis 2:24 Genesis 1:28

GOD’S CARE FOR HIS WORLD (God’s providence) 1. He gives all his creatures what they need for life. - by miracles when he wants - normally by natural means 2. He gives special care to His believers - through his angels - He makes all things work out for our good Psalm 145:15-16 John 6:1-14Matthew 5:45 Psalm 91:11 Romans 8:28

HOW WILL WE RESPOND TO GOD FOR ALL THIS? 1.We will admit he does this out of grace (undeserved love). 2. We’ll trust him as Maker and Preserver. 3. We’ll thank, serve, and obey him as Lord in all things. 4. We’ll tell others about our gracious Lord. Psalm 118:1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever. Psalm 121:1-2 I Corinthians 10:31Psalm 96:1-5
