3 - The Flood

Genesis 6:5 – 7:24

Francis Darby - The Deluge
Is God angry will all of humanity?  Why does he destroy "every living thing that was on the face of the ground?"

Or is God grieving?  What is God's emotion and reaction?

What is it about Noah which made him the chosen one to carry on the remnant of life?

2 - "The Fall"

Ede Bohacsek - Adam & Eve
Genesis 3:1 – 3:24


The study guide says “the original sin was to question, challenge and then disobey God’s definition of right and wrong.”  Do you agree?

What does this story tell you?  Does it tell you something about God?  About human beings?  About sin?

1 - Creation

Genesis 1:1 – 2:25

Where do you see God around you?

How do you understand creation from reading this passage and from what you know about how the universe came into existence?

How do you understand God from the creation stories?

What does it mean to you that humankind - including YOU -  is created "in the image of God?"
