We Believe in Creation (4 of 9)
Series: Creed: 9 Essentials to the Christian Faith
Scott Maze
Genesis 1:26-27
We continue a series of messages entitled Creed: 9 Essentials to the Christian Faith. We are exploring the beliefs that form the theological center of Christianity. It is a series devoted to the discovery of what you believe and why it matters. Each of these beliefs serves as lynchpins to the Christian faith, so that if you were to remove one of them you would see the Christian faith crumble. We have given four reasons why your beliefs matter over the past several weeks:
1. Beliefs Matter to God
2. Beliefs Matter to Your Church Family
3. Beliefs Matter to Your Family

My hope is infuse each of you with a sense of worth and dignity and purpose about why you are here on earth.

27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
28 And God blessed them. And God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.''' (Genesis 1:26-28)
