The Fruits of Deception Genesis 3:8-21 In last week’s teaching, we looked at three basic sources of deception: our humanity (the lust of the flesh), our prosperity (the lust of the eyes), and our philosophy (the pride of life). We’re warned in I John 2:16 and 17 that these things are not of the Father […]
Abraham—A Model Father Genesis 22:1-19 ‘Twas a sheep, not a lamb, that strayed away in the parable Jesus told. A grown‑up sheep that had gone astray from the ninety and nine in the fold. Out on the hillside, out in the cold, ’twas a sheep the Good Shepherd sought. And back to the flock, safe […]
Genesis 2:18-25 Genesis chapter one, verses twenty-six to thirty, outline for us the initial creation of mankind. Verse 27 reads like this; “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created He him: male and female created He them.” In our study of biblical womanhood, which we began last week, […]
Biblical Womanhood Genesis 2:15-25 A couple months ago, near the beginning of our study on the family, I presented a message titled, “Man in God’s Image.” In that study, we looked at the creation of human beings in God’s image.

In our study today, we’ll […]
Genesis 1:25-31 Have you ever wished you could’ve stood beside Adam and Eve as they gazed upon the perfect world God created for them? Imagine viewing the amazing variety and color of flowers, tasting the succulent fruits growing on heavily laden vines and trees? Imagine observing all the different birds and animals, living in harmony […]
Genesis 1:26-28; 2:7-9, 15-25 The Genesis record makes it clear that the creation of man was God’s crowning work. No other part of the created world had the distinction of being created “in the image of God.” At the conclusion of Genesis chapter one, we’re told; “And God saw everything that He had made, and […]
Genesis 1:26-28, 2:18-25
Genesis 1:26-28, 2:18-25 So, let’s review the three purposes for marriage that we’ve looked at so far. They are sanctification, illustration, and procreation.
