CREATION Taken from the HOLY BIBLE: NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION (C) 1978 by the New York Bible Society, used by permission of Zondervan Bible Publishers. GEN 1:26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 2:7 the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. 5:1 This is the written account of Adam's line. When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. 2 He created them male and female and blessed them. And when they were created, he called them "man." 9:6 "Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made man. JOB 4:17 'Can a mortal be more righteous than God? Can a man be more pure than his Maker? 10:2 I will say to God: Do not condemn me, but tell me what charges you have against me. 3 Does it please you to oppress me, to spurn the work of your hands, while you smile on the schemes of the wicked? 8 "Your hands shaped me and made me. Will you now turn and destroy me? 9 Remember that you molded me like clay. Will you now turn me to dust again? 31:15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers? 33:4 The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life. 34:19 who shows no partiality to princes and does not favor the rich over the poor, for they are all the work of his hands? 35:10 But no one says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night, PSA 8:5 You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor. 6 You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet: 7 all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, 8 the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. 100:3 Know that the LORD is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. 119:73 Your hands made me and formed me; give me understanding to learn your commands. 138:8 The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O LORD, endures forever--do not abandon the works of your hands. 139:14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. PRO 16:4 The LORD works out everything for his own ends-- even the wicked for a day of disaster. ECC 7:29 This only have I found: God made mankind upright, but men have gone in search of many schemes." ISA 17:7 In that day men will look to their Maker and turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel. 42:5 This is what God the LORD says--he who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and all that comes out of it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it: 43:7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made." 45:12 It is I who made the earth and created mankind upon it. My own hands stretched out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts. 64:8 Yet, O LORD, you are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. JER 27:5 With my great power and outstretched arm I made the earth and its people and the animals that are on it, and I give it to anyone I please. ZEC 12:1 This is the word of the LORD concerning Israel. The LORD, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the spirit of man within him, declares: MAL 2:10 Have we not all one Father? Did not one God create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our fathers by breaking faith with one another? MAR 10:6 "But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.' 1CO 11:7 A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. 15:48 As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 49 And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we bear the likeness of the man from heaven. HEB 2:7 You made him a little lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honor JAM 3:9 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness.
