Creation
.
The Book of Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament, has always held a particular fascination for me.
In this video, John Lennox challenges us to dig deeper into the creation account detailed in the Book of Genesis. I find John very easy to listen to and his intelligence and sense of humour really come through in the video. This message was given at a meeting of Socrates in The City.
SEVEN DAYS THAT DIVIDE THE WORLD
Some of the topics covered include:
What did the writer of Genesis mean by “the first day”?
Is it a literal week or a series of time periods?
If I believe that the earth is 4.5 billion years old, am I denying the authority of Scripture?
Lennox suggests that Christians can heed modern scientific knowledge while staying faithful to the biblical narrative.
In this talk, John Lennox’s presents a scientifically-savvy, theologically-astute, scripturally faithful interpretation of Genesis.
The video is long. But it is time well spent if you enjoy being challenged to think though this difficult and challenging topic.
