In this sermon The Futility Of Man's Own Genesis, man is not created to go his own way. When God created us, He created us without that one ability. We require God's direction. And it seems that man sets out to accomplish his own Genesis! "Man's own Genesis" is man's self-acclaimed position as god, making decisions as though he was god, himself. We study how man tried to be his own God, and how it led to death and sorrow. God decided to work creation into being, and man later is seen trying to be his own god in making his own sort of Genesis. We need to allow the One true God to be God, and not think of ourselves as our own gods.
