Genesis Study Lesson Week 10
Week’s Aim:Foundational Theology
Day 1: Revelations about God.
1. Write a paragraph or two on what you have learned about God in Genesis 1-3. Discuss His character, Him being Triune, and the authority of His word. Identify verses in Genesis that support what you have learned so you could share them with someone else. (Some outside references you may want to look up to help you are: Matt. 28:18; Romans 1:20; 1 Cor. 15:22-24; Jude 1:24-25; Rev. 1:8 & 12:10)
Application 1: Practice sharing what you have written and learned with one or two people in your small group or family member or friend. Practice helps give you confidence for that "surprise opportunity" to share with someone.
Day 2: Revelations concerning God's purpose and plan of creation.
1. Write a paragraph or two describing new thoughts and understanding you have received about God's purpose and plan for His creation. Identify verses in Genesis that support what you have learned so you can share your new insights with someone else? (You may include extra passages outside of Genesis such as: Ps. 18:49; Isa. 6:1-3; Eph. 1:3; Col. 1:16; Rev. 4:11, 21:1-4)
Application 2: Practice sharing what you have written and learned with one or two people in your small group or family member or friend.
Day 3: Revelations concerning God's placement of man in His creation.
1. Write a short paragraph or two about what you have learned regarding God's creation of man. What verses in Genesis would you use to help you explain the fall to someone else? (You may include extra passages outside of Genesis if you like.)

Day 4: Revelations concerning God's plan for man's Redemption.
1. Write a paragraph or two about God’s “Redemption plan" found in Genesis 3:15. How would you use this verse to help you explain the gospel message to someone else? (These may be helpful: Luke 21:25-28; Ro. 3:21-26; Eph. 1:7 & 4:30). Here are some verses to help you encourage a person to have a personal relationship with Christ: Eph. 2:8-10; Col. 1:21-22; Acts 17:24-31; Romans 3:10-12, 20, 23; 1 John 1:8-10; John 14:6; Ro. 5:8-9; and Eph. 2:1-10.
