2 Corinthians 7:1,“Let us cleanse ourselves” - that means we would do a good job if we were just as fond of straightening our own selves out as we are to find the faults of others. It is God’s Holy Spirit that will do the work but we must enter in to an active cooperation with God on this matter.

TITANIC: CODE OF HONOR
I bet a lot of you remember the movie Titanic. That song came out, and for a few days we loved Celine Dion, until we'd heard it so many times we started wishing we could put her on that boat to sink with the rest of them.

A little boy opened the big and old family Bible with fascination, looking at the old pages as he turned them. Then something fell out of the Bible and he picked it up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that has been pressed in between the pages. "Momma, look what I found,"

Genesis 5
Focus is v1….
In v1-2, isn’t God just repeating Himself? – God detailed the 2 types of “man” He created – male and female!
What’s significant about v3? – Adam and Eve had other children as alluded to in earlier chapters; v3 indicates that Seth was a special person!
Why do you think

I'D LIMP TOO
We did NOT inherit Adam's sin. But we did inherit something from Adam. His sin altered our DNA (if you will). His sin bent us toward limping in our righteousness.
