"What the rest of the Bible says about Genesis"
By Dr. Joseph A. Pipa, Jr.
President of Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary
October 25, 2012
Book table opens at 6:30 pm.
Program begins at 7:00 pm.
Sponsored by the Creation Study Group
Hosted by Second Presbyterian Church at 105 River Street, Greenville, SC.

Join Dr. Pipa as he helps others to understand and appreciate Genesis, to learn if it is a myth or a foundational document for the rest of scripture. Does Genesis contain any doctrines for the church of yesterday and today? Does it matter if the six days of creation are 24-hour days or just eons of time? In short, he will be dealing with how the rest of scripture confirms a literal translation of Genesis 1:1-2:3.
