GOD AS THE CONTROLLER OF THE UNIVERSE (1:26:-31, Amos 9:5-7)
We have learnt in the previous study that God created the world by His power and that everything that God created was good and perfect.
Everything that God created was according to order, He also put man in-charge of His creation. This shows God is the controller of the world He had created. God said: “Let us make man in our image after our likeness”, for God to given dominion to man over nature also shows that God was in control of the world. The dominion that was given to man by God covers the fish of the sea, the birds of the air and all the rest of the animals. Plants were given to man for food.
Even though God gave man a measure of control over created things. God is still the ultimate controller of all things He created. God’s dominion covers everything that He created.
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF GOD AS THE CONTROLLER OF THE UNIVERSE
THE APOSTLES’ CREED
The Apostles’ creed is not found in the Bible. The Apostles’ creed was not written by the Apostles. Rather, it was written at least 150 years after the Apostles and had all died, it is called the Apostle’ creed because it is supposed to be a record of what the Apostles taught. The Apostles’ creed is as follows:
I believe in God, the father Almighty,
The Creator of heaven and earth,
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son our lord:
Who was conceived of the Holy spirit,
Born of the virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius pilate,
Was crucified, died, and was buried
He descended into hell.
The third day he arose again from the dead,
He ascended into heaven
And sits at the right hand of God, the father Almighty,
Whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church,
The communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins,
The resurrection of the body,
And in life everlasting.
Amen.
