Christmas – Rescued From The Wrath To Come

Contributed by Charles Wall, Jr. on Dec 1, 2020

Something else happened that fateful day when Adam/Eve disobeyed - not only did they become sinners & would die, but something else horrifying happened. Because of being sinners, they would face the wrath of this God they had previously only known as a God of love, enjoyment and fellowship.

We are in the midst of a study of the Bk of Genesis & for the last few weeks have been in Genesis 3 studying the temptation of Eve. Eve, even though deceived by the serpent, makes a horrible decision & then she influences her husband, Adam, to follow her. And so in Genesis 3:6 we read 1 ...read more

Good Friday 2014
