The Existence of God (Genesis 1:1)

November 13, 2026

By Charles Price

The name Genesis means beginning, and in the book of Genesis, we have the beginning of the universe. We have the beginning of the world, the beginning of life, the beginning of the human race. We have the beginning of work and the responsibility that we have towards the earth. We have the beginning of marriage.

We have the beginning of sin, the beginning of evil, the beginning of corruption, and the beginning of hope. That’s just the first three chapters of Genesis. We will have difficulty understanding the rest of the Bible if we don’t understand these opening chapters of the book of Genesis.

There are essentially two main themes that the Bible is addressing, and these two main themes are extraordinarily relevant to us today. In fact, I suggest that these two themes of Scripture are the primary themes preoccupying our day in the 21st century. They’re being addressed by journalists, by commentators, by politicians, by psychologists, by philosophers, by the medical world. They’re the primary themes addressed by the United Nations and by world leaders.

Number one, what has gone wrong with our world? And number two, how do we put it right? These are actually two themes of Scripture.
