Echos From Eden Book One (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

“The Book of Genesis is probably the most important book ever written. The Bible is unquestionably the one Book that has exerted the greatest influence on history of any book ever produced. The Bible, a compilation of sixty-six books, and the Book of Genesis is the foundation of them all. If the Book of Genesis were removed it would be like a building without a foundation, or a bridge with no support. The books of the Old Testament, would be bigoted and racist, were they not in the context of God’s wise and gracious purposes as laid down in Genesis. The New Testament is, if anything, even more dependent on Genesis than the Old. There are at least 165 passages in Genesis that are either directly quoted or clearly referred to in the New Testament by Jesus and the apostles, having to do with the redemptive purposes of God and the principles of His Kingdom. I do not hesitate to say that the writings of the New Testament, describing the execution and implementation of God’s wonderful redemptive purposes in Jesus Christ, is completely unintelligible except in the light of the magnificent revelation of God’s great and glorious plan of the ages, as established in the record of man’s beginnings, recorded only in Genesis.” Book One of the this 3 book series begins with the Garden in Eden, The Trees in the Garden and the Rivers that flow from that Garden. The close of Book One introduces the fact that Adam was to Dress and care for the garden. The series, Echos From Eden, covers the great mysteries that are encased in the first book of the Bible, Genesis. It brings the story and its meaning into today as a word spoken to our hearts and spirits of the significance of God’s great plan for the world that He made.
