⁴ This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, when the LORD God made the earth and the heavens. (Gen. 2:4, NIV)

 

⁵ Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth and no plant had yet sprung up, for the LORD God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no one to work the ground, ⁶ but streams came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. (Gen. 2:5-6, NIV)

 

⁷ Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. (Gen. 2:7, NIV)

3. Every human being is a unified, living being created by God.

 

¹⁹ Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; ²⁰ you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.

(1 Co. 6:19-20, NIV)

 

Main Idea: Human beings are living, physical, spiritual beings that owe their lives to God because they are his unique, personal creation.
