The Beginning from the End : Why Genesis?
Overview
In the midst of today's heated debate over the origins of the earth and its life, including humanity, there is always a need for calm, carefully reasoned examination of the pertinent facts. The Beginning from the End admirably serves this need. Dr. Corbett Gaulden provides a coherent, text-centered analysis of the first eleven chapters of Genesis that is neither philosophical nor primarily theological in orientation, but rather allows the text to speak for itself, seeking to explicate its meaning in its plainest sense. As a starting point, he pre-assumes, as Genesis does, that God is the source and direct cause of everything that exists. He builds his argument around four basic declarations:
- God exists and is the Creator of The Creation
- God pre-existed The Creation
- God exists in The Eternal, which pre-existed and is independent of The Creation and is the un-created source of the created substance of The Creation
- God was purposeful in His acts of creation
The crux of Dr. Gaulden's argument is that love was God's first and most basic motivation for The Creation, and that mankind was His end purpose-a family of "sons" who would enter freely into an eternal love relationship with Him.
