Write about a theme you see throughout the book of Genesis. (Remember, a theme is something you can learn; a lesson that’s being taught.) Explain why this is important and what it teaches us about God. | Throughout the book of Genesis, men continue to sin and also continue to face hard times, but God continues to use them in miraculous ways to achieve his plans. | The hard times these people face both test them of their faith, as well as build them as people to achieve what great things God wants them to achieve. | This teaches us that God is omnipotent and forever remains in the presents of people’s lives, guiding them through the hard times, and allowing them to understand the purpose of those hard times, as well as the purpose of their life. | |||
