Passage: Genesis 2:4-25 Speaker: Pastor Lukus Counterman Series: Beginning - Genesis 1-12

Today’s passage zooms in on the account of the creation of the world to narrate how God fashions a perfect environment for his human creatures. As the account unfolds, we will see the personal covenant keeping God provide everything for man and woman: life, a beautiful and functional environment, food, work, moral choice, friendship and marriage, and above everything else, communion with Himself. Last week, chapter 1 showed us \"Word of the Lord\" as God's mighty means of creation, in chapter 2 the \"Word of the Lord\" comes in the form of a command that must be obeyed.  God's word brings both provision and prohibition.  It challenges our view of God.  Do you see God as the great provider or the great killjoy. Is your God a giving or restricting God? We hope today’s message shows you God’s care and concern for you as well as His jealousy for His creation.
