3. What does it mean that God is eternal, and where do we see this in Genesis 1:1? How does God’s eternality point us to the fact that the Bible is a matter of life and death?
4. How should the truth that God is the creator of everything practically impact our lives?
5. What does it mean that God is distinct, and in what ways do you lose sight of this?
6. Where do we see the Trinity in Genesis 1:1-3? How does this point us to Jesus and to God’s love?
