Fusion: week of 5/24

FAMILY THEME: WHERE DID DIFFERENT RACES COME FROM?

Genesis 3:20

Genesis 11:1-9

Acts 17:24-27

God could have created humans to all look alike. But look around!

We obviously have different colors of eyes, hair, and skin. If we all

came from Adam and Eve, how did this happen? The lesson this

week will answer this question.

1.  Every Person is the Offspring of the First Man and Woman

     (Genesis 3:20)

     All human beings are descendants of Adam and Eve.

2.  God Initiated Language Barriers and People Groups

     (Genesis11:9)

     Though God established different people groups, we

     are still one human race.

     

3.  Unbiblical Perspectives on the Origin of Humanity Have

     Contributed to the Rise of Racism in Recent History

     (Acts 17:24-27)

     Evolutionary theory of origins has greatly influenced the

     dehumanization of many people groups in recent history.
