Everything Begins (2 of 7)
SerieS: The Whole Story of the Bible
Scott Maze
Genesis 2:4-25
We're in the second week in a new series, where we are tracing out the story of the Bible. We want to see how all the parts of God's story fit together. And while the Bible is one of the most widely read books in history, it is also one of the most misunderstood. Much of the confusion results from a failure to grasp the overall message or central theme of the Bible. It is a ''forest for the trees'' problem. Often so much time is spent in the ''trees'' of different Bible teachings that we miss the ''forest'' or big picture. Sometimes we need to step back to see this big picture.

Throughout the 7 weeks together, it will be my aim to unpack these four sentences carefully.
God made the world.
We rebelled against our ruler.
God reentered the world to redeem us.
And God will remake the world.
So climb on top of the observation deck with me and let's get a better perspective of the bible before us. Turn to Genesis 2 and put a bookmark Revelation 22 for later.
Today's Scripture Passage
These are the generations
of the heavens and the earth when they were created,
in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.
5 When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up-for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there was no man to work the ground, 6 and a mist was going up from the land and was watering the whole face of the ground-7 then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breat ...
