For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved?

Some of you may remember the classic A Charlie Brown Christmas. There’s a scene where an exasperated Charlie Brown yells, “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?” I have to admit I’ve felt that way before. Amid the commercialism, materialism and the general confusion of the holiday, we probably all want to understand what happened to make Christmas the largest season in retail. During my short time as a manager at Walmart, I was truly amazed at what happened in our stores around Christmas. Multiple millions of dollars in retail moved through the stores I was in. People going into debt, for gifts that others don’t really want or need, in some cases attempting to impress those who don’t care, and buying things that will be out of the style trends next year. We seek to understand, just like Charlie Brown. “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?”

Picking it up from last week, let’s imagine what it must have been like. The Bible gives us a picture of Noah and his family standing there in this new, and I believe replenished world inthe sunlight. Take the time to think about what it must have been like, and allow the Word of God to impress your imagination. It represented a new beginning, with Noah as the human centerpiece. Last week we noticed that the first thing he did was build an altar to the Lord and sacrifice burnt offerings. We talked aboutthe turning aside of God’s wrath—propitiation. Remember also the comment I made about true worship happens when we recognize our total dependence upon God. I would add today that Noah was publicly and completely giving his life to God. We talked about the aroma of Noah’s offering pleasing God meaning that God accepted the worship. We talked about God’s covenant, blessing, and grace, and we found the sacredness of human life spelled out and affirmed by God’s Word.Lastly, we talked about the sign of the covenant: a shimmering rainbow, “my bow” as God literally termed it. So... we're moving on...…

We come now to a part of Genesis which is the most debated subject in the entire Book of Genesis. It is more debated that the creation story itself. I honestly did not want to cover this, and in the interest of keeping us moving at a good pace through Genesis, I thought I would have a good excuse to either pick another subject entirely or just skip it and move on. However, one of the things which happensas we go through the Bible in my particular preaching method, is I do not get to choose the topics. The topics come from the Bible itself as we go through it.…

RC states of our text for today, “The prophesied hostility between the offspring of the serpent and the offspring of the woman (cf. 3:15) takes shape immediately in the hostility of ungodly Cain against godly Abel (vv. 1–16), and in the contrast of Cain’sungodly offspring (which we will see later) versus the godly line of Seth (4:17–5:32). There is a horrendous escalation of sin from Cain to Lamech. 4:1–16 The focus is on Cain, the archetype of Satan’s followers. Cain displays his kinship with the devil by his hostility against God and his murder of a good man (v. 8; Matt. 23:35; Heb. 11:4), together with his lies (v. 9; John 8:44; 1 John 3:12).” [1] [1] R.

We continue on from where we left Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. I did not bring this out last week, but in 2:15 Adam was given a job to do. He was not to be idle doingnothing. His was a labor of keeping and tending the garden. Now, exactly what that looked like we are not told, but whatever it was- it was rewarding. It did not entail hard labor, the sweat of Adam’s brow, and the production of thorns and thistles as a reward. This work was done in obedience to God’s command. We see here a works based covenant with God. What happens here in chapter 3 is a test of fidelityto mankind’s King. Obedience is rewarded with a life in harmony with God. Disobedience will bring death.…

39:03

Today, we will begin our study through the Book of Genesis. I love the Book of Genesis for a number of reasons which I’m sure will come out as we move through it. For the longest time, my approach to the Book of Genesis was defensive. I felt as though I had to be ready to give an explanation for everything Darwinian evolutionary and atheistic thought could throw at me. I have talked with many skeptics, agnostics, and atheists during my life, and I have learned through talking with them—a true skeptic will never be convinced of anything, and they are without question some of the most arrogant, lonely, and miserable people I have ever met. Skeptics are selectively skeptic—only when they come across something that they don’t like are they skeptical. Their issue is not one of logic; their problem is one of a deaf and blind spirit which refuses to see and hear because they are spiritually dead. Romans 1:22–25 Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. Those verses in Romans truly apply to Darwinian Evolution. While I’m prepared to give a defense and point out the utter foolishness of evolution, I want to encourage you, as God’s people, that’s not the reason to study Genesis. We need to study Genesis, because within this great book, we will find the gospel. Genesis is the Book of Beginnings. We find a lot of first things happening in this great book. We find the beginning of man, the first family, and someone named Seth who is the many times great grandfather of Jesus. We find the first sin, first murder, the first polygamy, and the first false worship. And, on the pages of Genesis, we will find God’s plan of redemption. I will not be taking the usual approach where we read every single verse. Genesis is 50 chapters long, and it covers the first 2,000 years of history. I don’t want to be in this book for the next several years, so we are going to take a rather accelerated approach. However, if you ever have any questions about anything at all, just ask me, and I will be glad to talk with you about it.…

Ruth 4- "The Redeemer's Line is Rescued" 36:47

11 weeks önce36:47

36:47

In Chapter 4 we have the wedding of Boaz and Ruth. If we were looking for a case illustrating the law of God as given in Dt. 25:5, there is no better example. But there’s a lot more going on here than a study in case law. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is here in pictures, shadows, and symbols. And, as I’ve brought out since the first chapter, a descendant of this marriage will be David the King, and a descendant of David is the Son of David—the Savior, Jesus Christ. Remember when we covered the Book of Mark, how we learned that “Son of David” was one of the titles for the Messiah. The Son of David is the Bridegroom of His Church. His chosen Bride is the Church where both Gentile and Jew unite to worship the one true and living God. In this last chapter we will see how there was another in line to be Ruth’s husband, but Boaz legally bested him. We will see this marriage of Boaz and Ruth solemnized with the blessings of the neighbors. And, finally we will see the offspring of this marriage—Obed, the grandfather of David. Matthew Henery (Theologian, Wales, 1662-1714) speculated that the Holy Spirit directed King David to ensure that this Book of Ruth was inserted into the sacred canon of Scripture. King David may have wanted the world to know about his great-grandmother, her virtues, the fact that God saved a Gentile, and the providence of God. Be that as it may, the Holy Spirit is the one to place this Book right where it is for the edification of the Body of Christ—the Church, and He put it here because it is the inspired Word of God—not a work of fiction as even some biblical scholars claim.…

At this point in our narrative, we are moving toward a major resolution for Ruth and Naomi. We are moving from despair to hope. We are going to see the power of faithfulness, courage, and hope. We’re going to see that even in the face of uncertainty, God’s loving-kindness, His steadfast love—what is called “hesed” in Hebrew will conquer all the things these ladies are facing and Ruth’s needs will be met. May God bless the reading, preaching, and the hearing of the Word.…

Up to this point in the Book of Ruth, we have seen the loving and excellent character of two women—Naomi and Ruth. Although others have been mentioned, these two women are the only real actors up to this point. But now, in chapter 2 we will be introduced to the kinsman, Boaz. He’s the first male who’s not sick, dying, or disobedient to God we find in the story. Chapter 2 shows us Ruth’s faithfulness and love for the covenant people of God. We will also see her rewarded even in the midst of uncertainty and suffering. Boaz will be the one through whom this wonderful deliverance will come. As we look at chapter 2, remember all the circumstances from Chapter 1 that our God used in order to have Ruth grafted into the line of Christ and taken in among Jesus’ ancestors. Ruth coming into the covenant community is a figure of the Gentiles coming into the Church.…

Ruth has been called the most beautiful piece of literature in the not only the Bible, but the entire world. This book is about the providence of God and His covenant community. Providence is God’s care, preparation in advance, and His guardianship over you. Ruth is about the kindness of God’s people. BTW- We do not get to be God’s people because we are kind. We are kind because we are God’s people. This book gives us a picture of our Lord’s redeeming work. Boaz, a character we’ll get to as we look into this book, is the redeeming relative or kinsman-redeemer. This points us to Christ—our kinsman redeemer. Ruth is a picture of those who enter into new life through Christ, and we will see the clear hand of the Holy Spirit as we look at Ruth’s life. The main theme of this story is that of a redeeming relative. The most important theme in the Book of Ruth is God’s preservation and continuation of the promised Seed and the redemption of God’s people no matter the circumstances.…

No other passage shows the heart of love of the Lord seen in the Suffering Servant, the Messiah, Jesus, more than this one. And all this 700 years before Christ lived on earth. The NT quotes more from Isaiah than all the other prophets combined, with an amazing 308 references in the various NT books. For example, John quotes Isaiah in chapter 12 of his Gospel, and then he adds this commentary in verse 41, “These things Isaiah said when he saw (Jesus’) glory and spoke of Him.” As a matter of fact, when one reads verses like these, it’s almost as though Isaiah was an eyewitness to the flogging and the crucifixion—that he was there. But remember, Isaiah’s long ministry was roughly 700 years prior to that of Jesus. Seven centuries separate them. I’ve used this as an example before, but that’s like someone writing in the early 1300s about the events related to the terrorist attacks here on 9/11/01!…
