And It Was Good: Creation

In a world full of death and decay, why is there so much goodness and beauty?

• God made the world, and it is very good! (Gn. 1).
• The whole earth is full of his glory (Isa. 6.3).
• Creation is a damaged signpost that still points to the goodness and majesty of God (Ps. 19.1-4).
• Even sin and death cannot silence the goodness of God’s world (Rm. 8.18-21).

Application: Creation is the good gift of a good creator God who loves and delights in what he has made.
