Synopsis

"In the beginning..."

This phrase is often wrongly read as "Once upon a time", as in the opening of a pleasant story or fairy tale, but David Pawson views it as a radical statement indicating that "our universe has not been around forever". Yet despite this, "most people in our world, and most men in history, have believed the opposite, that the universe is eternal".

If Genesis was written to provide understanding of our origins and the consequences of the Fall, then why has this book of the Bible in particular inspired so much debate and controversy? And does it conflict with a scientific understanding of the origins of the universe?

If God is a God of truth, why do science and Scripture sometimes seem to disagree? For instance, how can we reconcile the problem of references to the days of creation in Genesis with the estimates of billions of years? Can these apparent discrepancies and disagreements be explained?

And in a world beset with troubles and threats of pandemics, hunger, inflation, recession, and nuclear war, why is it necessary to consider the origins of the universe and the human race?

In this ambitious book, David Pawson tackles these and other challenging questions within the context of the creation versus evolution debate. In arguing that both God's Word and science are compatible, he points out that "the battles are battles of fact, but the warfare is a warfare of faith".
