Mid-America Reformed Seminary

In today's episode, Dr. J. Mark Beach explores the biblical account of creation and what it reveals about the nature of God and humanity. Tracking with the Institutes of the Christian Religion, Dr. Beach examines John Calvin's key insights, including how the creation story testifies to God's eternal power and benevolent care in preparing the earth for humans made in His image. He'll also look at the role of angels as God's servants ministering to the Church, as well as the tragic corruption of humanity's image through the Fall. Despite this, Calvin shows how the creation narrative points to God's wisdom in renewing us through Christ.
