This six-week series, Fundamentals: The Basics of the Bible, outlines the basics of Christian theology, helping congregation members understand the main points of salvation history as shown in the Bible. From the fall of humankind to now, God had a design to bring humanity back to himself so we might know him for eternity.
One of the most well-known verses in the Bible is this: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." From this came the origin of all things. All that is to be known starts with this simple account of the very beginning. Being so familiar with the text, we might take its gravity for granted. But from it we can gather some core truths of our very existence, as well as the Christian faith.
We can live out the life God has called us to when we understand where we came from.
