2424
God created heaven and earth
God created everything good
God gave the Earth to mankind
God binds himself to creation
God claims ownership of creation
Humankind, too, is owned by Him
Humankind has limited freedom
Man made in the image and likeness of God
Man’s responsibilities as the crown of God’s creation:
• replenish the earth
• subdue the earth
• dress, till, and keep the earth
• have dominion over the earth
2525
God designed man to live in harmony with all things
That harmony was fourfold in nature
• harmony with God
• harmony with self
• harmony with others
• harmony with nature
That harmony was contingent upon obedience to God
2626
God’s intent (harmony) is disrupted
The cause is disobedience
Man wanted more than the limited freedom mandated by God, and he revolted
Disobedience and revolt lead to a separation and estrangement from God
Man is out of harmony with God, himself, others, and nature
Creation is misused by man
Disobedience leaves God’s created ones carrying the burden of guilt and a “sense of guilt”
God does not abandon His sinful creatures; a new promise is given to them
