sin

  • Genesis 30

    Of all things we experience in life, our relationships reveal the most about our character.

    All Scripture is God’s Word, and is “profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16). It’s our natural tendency to apply principles that we know from the New Testament to Old Testament stories. But remember, a text taken out of context leaves just a con. So don’t judge Jacob too harshly. His family did not have the written Bible, but they did have the oral Word of God which they were responsible for.

  • Genesis 11

    God’s sovereign mercy on nations provides eternal opportunity for the Lord’s people — Part 2.

    The Bible is not a history book, but it contains history. We can learn much from what the Holy Spirit chose to record.

  • Genesis 9

    God’s Prevailing Promise and Man’s Frailty and Perseverance.

    After Noah and his family exit the ark, they are granted a new beginning and an opportunity similar to Adam and Eve’s. They step out into a new world and a new era of time. God reaffirms his instructions for humanity and reestablishes his covenant.
