Genesis 3:8-13 - Hiding in Shame Because of Sin

Genesis 3:8-13

Having disobeyed the LORD God, the man and the woman must inevitably face their Creator.  What then?

Genesis 3:1-7 - A Closer Look at The Woman's & Man's Temptation & Sin

Genesis 3:1-7

For the most part everyone *knows* the story of temptation & sin in Genesis chapter three.  But in many cases, I think there has been quite a lot of unwarranted speculation as to what was happening.  For better or worse, this is my take on the details...

Genesis 2:24-25 - Biblical Marriage

Genesis 2:24-25

Having created the man, and then the woman, the LORD God uses that very first relationship as His design & pattern (model) for for marriage -- i.e., "Therefore..."

Genesis 2:18-15 - God's Divine Intention: The Man, The Woman

Genesis 2:18-25

God's designed intention was to create the man, followed by the woman as the man's complimentary partner & helper.  These verses which are so often divisive are meant to a beautiful celebration of marriage before sin.

Genesis 2:17-18 - Man's Conscience (?) and Man's Compliment

The first few minutes were not recorded, but it was basically review and setting the context for today's teaching.  We took a closer look at God's prohibition concerning "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil" and the declared consequence, "death".  After that we surveyed the next section, verses 18-25 -- noting that verse 18 drives the unfolding narrative.

Genesis 2:7-17, Adam's creation: Dust + Image. His Vocation, Liberty, & Prohibition.

Genesis 2:7-17

Adam is formed from dirt; at the same time, the LORD God uniquely makes him in His own image, breathing into his nostrils the "breath of life!"

Joel 1-2, "The Day of the LORD" / Dylan Ackley

Minor Prophet: Joel 1-2

Our own Dylan Ackley preaches on important themes from Joel chapters 1-2 -- focusing especially on the significance and importance of "the day of the LORD."

GUEST: Curt Fleck - "Jesus's Crucifixion & Resurrection Demands a Response"

Matthew 27:45 - 28:9

Curt Fleck, the Executive Director of Civil Servant Ministry, preaches a "condensed" message from the regular Bible study series  (Matthew's gospel) he hosts with various State governmental officials in Springfield.

Genesis 2:5-17 - Plants of the Field, Garden in Eden, the LORD God's Character

Genesis 2:5-17

In today's message we consider difference between vegetation created by God on Day 3 and the description in 2:5, "When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up—for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there was no man to work the ground".

We also survey the larger context of verses 5-17 to glean what we can know about the LORD God.

Genesis 2:4 - A Second Creation account !?

Genesis 2:4 -  Genesis 1:1-2:3 narrates seven chronological days of creation (6 days of activity followed by an explicit day of cessation).  Then (apparently without adequate explanation) chapter 2:4ff recounts what appears to be creation with significantly different details.  Are the two "versions" of creation irreconcilable, or are they complimentary?
