"God's Family....better Together" Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Jun 20, 2017

If we trace God’s hand back to the book of Genesis and follow it through the OT we see God as the creator of two institutions. (1) The family and (2) the church. And we quickly realize that the two are very closely related.

From Death To Life

Contributed by Gnana Raj on Sep 4, 2021

Genesis 5 contains a genealogy. As Christians, how can we understand and preach this passage christologically? If Jesus said the Scripture speaks of Him, and this stands as part of the inspired scripture, how can we discern its Christological significance?

Alternate Theory Of Creation No. 3 - The "day/Age" Theory

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 24, 2023

Another theory of the creation of the universe in opposition to the record given in Genesis 1 is the "Day/Age" Theory, and like the previous two we looked at, has neither the science or Scriptural foundation to verify its claim.

We have looked at two of four "theories of creation" used to explain our origins apart from what is clearly and unapologetically presented in the first chapter of Genesis. The first theory is known as "theistic evolution", which teaches that God used evolution as part of the ...read more

"before Religion" Series

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Sep 13, 2023

Genesis 1:1. It is said that if you can get through the first verse of the Bible, you can read and believe the rest. Do you believe in God? If so, why? How do I know God exists?

One of the simplest stories in the Bible seems to be one of the hardest stories for some to believe. One of the famous men that doubted the Biblical creation story was a man named Charles Darwin, who died in April of 1882. Through Darwin’s studies he determined that man was not created by God, as ...read more
