Covering the Covenant of Noah
I want to add one thing to covenant of Adam lesson
Genesis 3:6-7--------VS.20-21
Shaneology- Was God Just fashion conscience> What was he doing
Where did these skins come from
God set forth at creation- there would have to be substitutionary death
Man always seeks their own covering-
You can’t do it- God has to make a sacrifice>He taught them
Because Cain and Abel made a sacrifice
We are saved “by grace through faith” Not by covering our own sin
Now back to the COV. Of NOAH
Always tickled that parents decorate their kids room – Greatest Catastrophe
There’s a lot of questions that go unanswered- concerning the flood
Genesis 6:1-12 & 17-18
When Adam sinned> he felt guilt
Cain kills Abel> premeditated – Felt no Guilt “Cain, where’s your brother”
Totally mocks God- He was a Murderer & Liar
We can see how quick sin began to deteriorate peoples thinking
Chapter 4- Lamech> Polygamy- took two wives
Genesis 4:23-24 - Look he’s bragging
Sings about killing cops, doing drugs, raping women,> “Shot a man in Reno”
They’ve been rapping for years
When can see the worlds getting worse and worse
By the time we get to chapter 6- all Hell has broken loose
Sons of God- Daughters of Men
I’ll touch briefly-
Before the New Covenant-
only 2 people were called ‘sons of god”--
Adam-----Angels-----Why?
They were direct creations of God
I don’t have time show scriptures- Go home and check me out
That’s why were called sons and daughters – DIRECT CREATIONS
When Satan was kicked out of Heaven, Did anybody go with HIM? angels
Were those angels “SONS OF GOD”—of course
I believe the fallen angels and women were procreating – The ultimate wicked
TURN TO JUDE vs. 5-8
Many people talk about the flood- few talk about Why it came!!
God speaks to Noah- I’m gonna save you and your family
2 of every kind of animal
7 every clean animal- for sacrifices
Gonna need a big ole boat
How did all of those animals live- I believe they hibernated
I also believe the animals were babies-
If they were adults, might start with 2 rabbits- end the trip with 100’s of rabbits
Gen 8:20-22> Gen. 6:5-8
He could judge and send wrath after wrath
It would never change the hearts of men
So he sent a deliverer
Look at Gen 8:22
Seedtime harvest
Hot cold
Winter summer
Day night
God said all of these would remain forever
3 of those things are out of our control
1 isn’t
chapter 9
1. Said he wouldn’t flood the earth
2. Be fruitful and multiply
3. animals would be afraid of us- apparently before flood- they weren’t scared
I’ve shared my fear of animals
All will be meat for you
4. vs.6- if you shed man’s blood- by man, your blood will be shed
“Capital Punishment”
I don’t get political- That’s what it says- Human life is valuable
Who’s life is more valuable- He says if you kill somebody- kill ‘em back
5. Rainbow VS. 12-17
I’m sure they were a little gunshy- for the next few years
