When we think about the marvel of creation—how God spoke the universe into existence and formed the earth and everything in it—we think most often of Old Testament accounts.
But it is encouraging to examine the New Testament to see how that part of the Bible refers to creation.
But it is encouraging to examine the New Testament to see how that part of the Bible refers to creation.
Here is a look at some key passages:
“I will utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world” (Matt. 13:35).
“I will utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world” (Matt. 13:35).
God reveals things to us that He had kept secret since before creation.
“Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world” (Matt. 25:34).
Before the earth was created, God knew each of us—and He knew our future.
Before the work of creation even began, God was aware of each of His eventual children.
These New Testament verses comfort us with the truth that God’s knowledge of us and His eternal mysteries about us point toward His special creation of mankind as described in Genesis.
We can do nothing but bow in awe before One whose knowledge and creative ability
are eternal in nature and boundless in power.
Creation: New Testament style—still another reason to give God praise!
Each person is a unique expression of God’s loving design.
