Satan’s main tactic in temptation is to attack the truthfulness of God’s word and the goodness of God’s commands. Our students need to be trained to stand up to Satan’s age-old schemes by trusting and obeying God’s word.

God says it is not good for man to be alone so he makes woman, and he will explain more the implications of this truth in the rest of the Bible. It is essential for our students to know and believe what God says about marriage and gender in our confused and rebellious world.

We studied the creation mandate from God to humanity and pushed our students to consider God’s purposes for men and women in his world. The most important action we can do to live out our purpose is to obey God’s word without hesitation or questioning.

The image of God is the defining characteristic of humanity in the creation account. It is the first thing we learn about humans in the Bible! If our students understand what it means for all people to be made in the image of God and the implications of this idea, they will be equipped to discern whatever lies the world spreads about humanity.

Genesis 1 is a text written in the historical narrative style and it teaches that God made our world in six days and then he rested on the seventh. Our students need to see the massive worldview and theological problems with the modern myth of naturalistic evolution.

As we begin our yearlong study of the book of Genesis, we must stop and consider all the theology and worldview data that is contained in the first verses of the Bible. God was in the beginning and created the world by the word of his power. Everything Christians believe depends on this!

John ends his letter with a warning against idols. Christians today can make idols of any good gift from God if we devote ourselves to them more than to God. In our hearts, we need to be on guard against this foolish and shameful sin!
