Is man created in the image of God or is God created in the imagination of man? Jesus said the Bible was true, see Matthew19:4.

I. How the evolutionist entangles man and the animals, Genesis 1:24-25. A. Were there cavemen? Yes and there are people who still live in caves, see Genesis 1:27. B. Were there dinosaurs? Yes and God created them the 6th day, see Job 40:15-18 and Job 40:24.

II. How God compares man with the animals. A. There is similarity in design because God made them both, man and animals. B. There is similarity in diet, see Genesis 1:29-31. C. There is similarity in death, see Ecclesiastes 3:19. There was no death before the fall of man—so man did NOT eat meat.

III. How God separates man from the animals. A. Man has the capacity to fellowship with God, see Genesis 26-27. B. Man has been commanded to have dominion over the earth, see Genesis 1:28. C. Man has the capability to sin (free will). D. Man has the consciousness of his own destiny, see 2 Peter 3:10. Man knows he is accountable—ultimately to God!

Personal Application:

· Don’t let the evolutionists rattle your cage—these are people Jesus died for—have compassion. · We are to treat one another with RESPECT because we are made in His image, see James 3:9-10. · We with God will live forever because we are made in His image, see Mark 8:36-37.

Was the earth really created in six, 24-hour days or were there large gaps of time between the days, or were the days really thousands of years in length? The answers to these questions are vitally important and they form the foundation of people’s faith.

The first verse of the Bible is the foundation of all which is built—the whole of Scripture. If you can believe the 1st verse of the Bible (Genesis 1:1) then you can believe the rest of the Bible, and the converse is also true. Genesis is the book of beginnings.
