2. How did all things come to be?
Key Question:
How did all things come to be?
You're walk in the woods, thinking no one has been here before. The musty smell of moss is think in the air. The leaves squish under your feet as bramble scrapes against your face. But then you come into a clearing. The sun blazes around you. There in the center is a log cabin. Do you still think no one has been there before?
Hebrews 3:4 says, “For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything” (NIV)
A log cabin is built with logs and pegs, saws and hammers. Let's see how God made heaven and earth as we ask . . .

3. 1. How did it all start? Let there be!
Hebrews 11:3*
God created everything out of nothing
Genesis 1
In six normal days
By the power of his word
To reproduce after their own kind
Evolution: The false idea that life somehow started and gradually developed into more complex forms of life over a long time
Let there be!
Many science books will say everything evolve. What do you know about the theory of evolution? Points to note on the board:
1) Big Bang/ primordial cells
2) Millions of years
3) Random changes
4) People = smart animals
5) People in charge of themselves
7) Just a human theory
Who alone was thereat the beginning? God. Let's see what he has to say.
