| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Imago Dei (Translation & Origin) | The theological concept that humans are created in the likeness of God, giving them inherent dignity, value, and the role of representing Him on Earth. |
| Ex Nihilo | Latin for “Out of Nothing.” In theology, it refers to God creating the universe from absolutely nothing, rather than from pre-existing matter. |
| Foreshadow | To predict something or to give a hint of what is to come later in a narrative. |
| Polytheism | The belief in and worship of multiple gods. |
| Monotheism | The belief in one, singular God, who is the creator and ruler of the universe. |
| Omnipotence | Having unlimited, absolute power. |
| Omniscience | Having infinite, complete, or unlimited knowledge and understanding; perceiving all things. |
| Immutable | Unchanging and unchangeable. |
| Transcendent | Exceeding ordinary limits, experience, or understanding. In theology, it refers to God existing outside the world He created and not being subject to its limitations. |
| Sovereign | Possessing supreme power or authority to rule. |
| How does Genesis 1 demonstrate the concepts of Ex Nihilo and Omnipotence? | God speaks the universe into existence out of nothing (ex nihilo) simply by saying, "Let there be...", which displays His absolute, unlimited power (omnipotence). |
| What differentiates the creation account in Genesis from the polytheistic myths of the ancient Near East? | Genesis strictly asserts monotheism (one sovereign God creating with order and purpose), whereas neighboring cultures believed in polytheism (many gods fighting for control using chaotic, pre-existing matter). |
| What happens in Genesis 3, and how does it connect to the word foreshadow? | The Fall of Man (the introduction of sin). Genesis 3:15 (the Protoevangelium) foreshadows the ultimate defeat of evil by a future savior (the offspring of the woman). |
| What major event occurs in Genesis 6–9, and what does it reveal about God's attribute of being Sovereign? | The Great Flood (Noah's Ark). It demonstrates that God is sovereign—He holds supreme authority to judge creation for its wickedness, yet He faithfully preserves a remnant through a covenant. |
| What is the significance of the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11? | Humanity tries to build a tower to heaven to make a name for themselves. God scatters them by confusing their languages, reasserting His sovereignty and showing that human pride cannot exceed His limits. |
| Who does God call in Genesis 12, and what does He promise him? | Abram (later Abraham). God makes a covenant to give him a land, make his descendants a great nation, and bless all families of the earth through him. |
| How is God's omniscience shown in the story of Abraham and Sarah? | God knows Sarah laughed to herself in secret when told she would have a child in her old age (Genesis 18), and He knows the future fulfillment of His promises despite human doubts. |
| What is the ultimate test of Abraham's faith in Genesis 22? | The Binding of Isaac (the Akedah). God commands Abraham to sacrifice his promised son, Isaac, on Mount Moriah. Abraham obeys, but God provides a ram in the thicket as a substitute at the last moment. |
| How does Genesis 22 foreshadow the New Testament? | A father willing to sacrifice his only loved son, the son carrying the wood for the sacrifice, and God providing a substitute lamb/ram all foreshadow the crucifixion of Jesus. |
