3.5 ANCIENT FUTURE (wk2) Evolutionary Creation - a podcast by George Stull
from 2023-03-06T14:20:23
In this teaching, we explored the second line of the Apostles' Creed "creator of heaven and earth." George talked about the biological process of creation and the theological story of creation given to us in Genesis.
The creed is an ancient way of narrating a particular story about reality that Christians have trusted for a millennium and a half. We want to root our community in this story and simultaneously ask new questions about it for our modern world.
SLIDES GEORGE USED IN THIS GATHERING
We have come to see that these chapters are poetry and not science, that they are religious symbolism and not history. They do not tell us anything of God's method of creation; they do lay down the one supreme fact that life came into being through the power of, and by the will of, God. Whatever the method of creation, God remains the Creator without whom life is possible.
William Barclay
In matters that are so obscure and far beyond our vision, we find in Holy Scripture passages which can be interpreted in very different ways without prejudice to the faith we have received.
