    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Eighteen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER EIGHTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that God confirms His promise that Abraham will have a son – at which Sarah laughs. God disclosed to Abraham that He is about to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 18 The Lord appears again to ...read more

    Is Anything Too Difficult For God? Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 25, 2022
     | 3,936 views

    Abraham and Sarah must trust God. Maybe you have been praying for years for someone or something. Remember: He is El Shaddai. He is God Almighty. Nothing is too difficult for God. When our situation grows more impossible God shows himself almighty.

    There is a philosophical question that some ask about God. When claim nothing is too difficult for God they ask, can God make a rock so big he cannot lift it? No. The philosopher thinks he has somehow outsmarted God. But also, God is so holy he cannot lie. God cannot act outside his own nature ...read more
