11 Truths of Divine Creation

6) Man was created Directly, Climactically, and Specifically.

God specifically created Adam at the climax of His creation work on the 6th day.

Genesis 2:7 states specifically:
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.

After Adam was created from the dust – then Eve was formed by God from one of Adam's ribs. Genesis 2:26 states specifically:
The LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.

Simply stated, man was created from the dust of the ground on the literal 6th day of
creation. He was created in the image of God as stated in Genesis 1:27.
God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

This first marriage took place in the beginning. Genesis 2:24 states:
For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother, and be joined to his wife and they shall become one flesh.

All this happened before Adam and Eve became a father and mother!
This is God's design!
