AI OVERVIEW: Creation is a god-breathed, good act in which the Spirit hovers over the waters as God speaks light, land, plants, animals, and finally humanity into being. Humans are made in God’s image to rule with stewardship, and the Spirit breathes life into them, marking creation as good and pointing toward a personal relationship with the Creator. Through Jesus, the Spirit’s life is renewed in a new creation; Jesus, the New Adam, breathes the Spirit on his followers, uniting them to the Father and enabling them to live by faith as part of God’s ongoing work. This new creation continues in the church, as the Spirit empowers believers to bring life to a world that longs for shalom.
