Understanding the Bible book of 'Genesis' Part 1 In The Beginning

Gen. 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth".
Our first view of the earth is of a planet, empty and covered with water where even light did not penetrate. The initial act of creation prior to the process mentioned in the rest of the chapter provided the raw materials for the acts of creation that were to follow. Genesis does not provide us with a means of dating the point at which creation occurred and so does not contradict scientific findings regarding the age of the earth.

When and why Jesus was born! Mr Mick Storey

This talk is aimed at making us think seriously about why Jesus was born. People mostly associate his birth with Christmas.
This however is grounded in human tradition, not the word of God. It's why he was born that is important. The three announcements
by the angels about his birth encapsulate the gospel message of salvation from sin and death. When Jesus was born, the exact date is not important; it's why that matters.
Only through the birth, life death and resurrection of Jesus the Son of God and our association with him can we personally have a hope of eternal life.
So what does the birth of Jesus mean to you?
