The doctrine of creation is true as affirmed by faith in Scripture, which begins with 'In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.'
The truth of the doctrine of creation, as articulated in Genesis 1:1, underpins the Christian faith. It proclaims that God is the Creator of all things and that He made the world according to His divine purpose. Unlike claims made by so-called science, the belief in creation rests on faith rather than human reasoning or evidence. Accordingly, any position that contradicts this biblical account lacks the foundation of divine truth. Followers of Christ do not need to validate God’s creation through secular frameworks but rely on Scripture's authority and the grace required to trust it.
