N2  - "The two great theological themes of creation and redemption run throughout Scripture like two golden threads in a magnificent tapestry. This book is about how beautiful, far-reaching, and complex is the theme of creation in the New Testament. Fifteen authors present studies in three sections-backgrounds and New Testament theology, studies in New Testament books, and a conclusion. The book concludes that the theme and reality of creation are affirmed throughout the New Testament, indeed, throughout the entire Bible. The doctrine and reality of creation by God touches many themes and doctrines. Analyzing these carefully illustrates that the biblical writers considered creation a key doctrine and that it took place literally as the Genesis 1-2 account presents it. Otherwise key teachings of Scripture on anthropology, eschatology, soteriology and ethics are undermined or rendered ineffectual or inconsistent. Accepted as the key foundational doctrine of Scripture, fiat creation sets the stage for all that follows and becomes the glorious beginning to which we return in the end"--
