God Created Man

God Created Man

God said "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness."

God gave man dominion to rule over all the earth. God gave man the responsibility to care for all of God's creatures. God created a man from the dust of the earth and called him Adam. From Adam God created Eve to be his wife. God gave Adam and Eve permission to eat the fruit and grains abundant in the Garden of Eden. At the end of the sixth day God saw that everything was very good.

On the seventh day God rested from all His work and blessed the seventh day and sanctified it as His Sabbath and gave it to man so that every Friday evening to Saturday evening we can also experience this rest with God.
