Wow. Can this story be anymore immense? How about reading from the perspective of a group of people surrounded by communities that worshipped the sun, the moon, the birds, the animals, and the earth itself as their gods. What were the Genesis storytellers thinking!?!? Their god created all these things? They all move at the wishes of their god?!?!

Immense!

There is one of the many themes of Genesis 1 that I believe are so much more astounding and worthy of our attention than a modernly simple reading of it as a literal history of creation. Why do we continue to rob ourselves of the astounding truths found in these passages when we fail to consider them from the point of view of the original hearers? Talk about the original GOSPEL story! God created and loves all creation! He called you good! This is a story that could be preached to all their neighbours and provide hope for a relationship with God! And this is thousands of years before Jesus.

This book is incredible.

I just got a twitter account. I guess this is really only useful if you have a cellphone or some other way to send text messages… which i don’t have.. other than with this here computer. When I go to school I should probably get a cell phone. Since I’ll be out much more often.

oh ya… twitter….
