The road ahead is about to get rocky, but, we have reason for hope.

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Mar 17, 2009

Like Isaac being called by God to be a witness for Him and passing on the "calling" to Jacob, Christians are also called and are to pass the baton of Good News of Christ.

A relay running race is a team event in which you have to pass a baton from one teammate to another in order to finish the race. The US Team dropped the baton and was disqualified from the race.

In the middle of nowhere, Jacob encounters God and realizes God’s presence encompasses more that what just his eyes see.

We talked about some of the similarities between the unknowns of Abrahams life, such as the lack of any information about his childhood, and that of Jesus and how little is know of his childhood. We discovered that as ...read more

The experience of Jacob at Bethel, and what it can mean today -- God still extends his staircase down to us at unexpected times.

Studies In Genesis: Chapter 28 Series

Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 16, 2011

This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Title: Jacob at Bethel Jesus made a reference to Jacobs ladder that we read of in chapter 28. Where was this recorded in the ...read more
