\"\"<\/a>Introduction–Bring a basket that you have made.\u00a0 This is a basket that I made.\u00a0 I did not create it because I had some material to use.\u00a0 I took reed and string and made it.\u00a0 To create something you must have nothing and make something from nothing.\u00a0 God created the earth but he made man from the things he had created.<\/p>\n

I.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Have a member Read Genesis 1:1 and 26A<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A. God chose to make the earth, the sky and all creation from nothing but his Word.<\/p>\n

C. From a man, he made a woman.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0II.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Why did God choose to create the earth?<\/p>\n

A. I believe that the Lord made earth for man.<\/p>\n

B.\u00a0 He made man for himself–He wanted a friend.<\/p>\n

C. Tell about studying Timothy and discovering that God wanted to be your friend.<\/p>\n

D. That changed my life.<\/p>\n

III.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 People like to argue about creation.<\/p>\n

A. There is no reason to argue truth.<\/p>\n

B.\u00a0 Some scientists say that the idea of a God who created earth was silly.<\/p>\n

C. However, as more and more real facts are uncovered, more and more people are agreeing that the earth was created<\/p>\n
