You Missed Jesus in Genesis 1

About this episode

What if Genesis 1 is doing far more than describing creation?
In this episode of Shadows to Substance, Pastor George Sayour reveals how the very first words of Scripture point directly to Jesus Christ and the miracle of salvation. 


The command, “Let there be light,” is not just about the creation of the world—it foreshadows the spiritual light Christ brings into dead hearts.

From Genesis to John to the writings of Paul, the Bible tells one unified story: 
the God who created light is the same God who shines the light of salvation through Jesus Christ.

In this episode, you’ll discover:
• How Genesis 1 points to Christ
• Why “light” is a salvation theme throughout Scripture
• The connection between creation and new creation
• How spiritual blindness is overcome through Christ alone
• Why the Gospel is woven into the Bible from the very beginning

This is the beauty of biblical theology: the shadows of the Old Testament find their substance in Christ.
