| God is Creator of all things, and has revealed in
Scripture the authentic account of His creative activity. In six days the Lord made
"the heaven and the earth" and all living things upon the earth, and rested on
the seventh day of that first week. Thus He established the Sabbath as a perpetual
memorial of His completed creative work. The first man and woman were made in the image of
God as the crowning work of Creation, given dominion over the world, and charged with
responsibility to care for it. When the world was finished it was ``very good,'' declaring
the glory of God. |
Gen. 1.
