For those tired and unsatisfied with the current theories of Genesis 1, Creation Through the Eyes of Christ: A Philosopher's Look at Genesis 1 offers a new and unique interpretation of the Bible's first chapter. The book's views are conservative and Reformed. Since the Enlightenment, theologians have wrongly presumed Genesis 1 to be a "cosmology" explaining a scientific order of things.

For those tired and unsatisfied with the current theories of Genesis 1, Creation Through the Eyes of Christ: A Philosopher's Look at Genesis 1 offers a new and unique interpretation of the Bible's first chapter. The book's views are conservative and Reformed. Since the Enlightenment, theologians have wrongly presumed Genesis 1 to be a "cosmology" explaining a scientific order of things. However, the primary purpose of creation is to reveal God's invisible and eternal attributes (Ro 1:20). Genesis Chapter 1 is thus the first "systematics" of God's attributes- a sermon by Christ of His Father's glory (Jn 1:14, 17-18). Creation was Christ's doing (Jn 1:2-3). 300+ pages. "Now we should be able to see one glaring error among almost all previous theories of Genesis 1. These theories wrongly viewed the creation narrative as an account of cosmology and phenomenology, explaining the order and motion of things. Quite the opposite, Moses wrote a statement about cosmogony, explaining the existence of things. Nowhere in Chapter 1 did Moses imply that time, space, chance, natural laws, energy, force, or matter did anything. Rather, God's spoken word alone did everything." "Genesis 1 is essentially a sermon by Jesus Christ revealing His Father. The narrative is the first systematic theological statement of God's attributes."
