"Formed of Dust"

“Formed of Dust”

Blessings folk!

Some more details about creation…creation that the Lord executed by His Word and we believe by faith.

Gen 2:7-8

Then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

The LORD God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man whom He had formed.


Man was created on the sixth day.

God formed man.
He fashioned man.

Psa 139:14-16

I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.

My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;

Your eyes have seen my unformed substance;
And in Your book were all written
The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.


God breathed into man’s nostrils the breath of life.
Man then became a living being.
A living being fashioned in the image of God.

Man is different from all other animals.
Man has a “spirit”…the image of God.
Animals do not.

God planted a garden for man.
He then put man there.

All was good.
All was perfect.

What could go wrong?
