Noah and His Sons (Genesis 9:18-10:32)

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.  For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.  The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.  Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey…

Under the Shelter of God’s Wings (Psalm 91)

Listen, you heavens, and I will speak;    hear, you earth, the words of my mouth.Let my teaching fall like rain    and my words descend like dew,like showers on new grass,    like abundant rain on tender plants.I will proclaim the name of the Lord.    Oh, praise the greatness of our God!He is the Rock, his works are perfect,    and all his ways are just.A faithful God who does no wrong,    upright and just is he. Deuteronomy 32:1-4 Sermon Notes

A New Beginning (Genesis 8:1-9:17)

The Lord is righteous in all his ways    and faithful in all he does.The Lord is near to all who call on him,    to all who call on him in truth.He fulfills the desires of those who fear him;    he hears their cry and saves them.The Lord watches over all who love him,    but all the wicked he will destroy.My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord.    Let every creature praise his holy name    for ever and ever. Psalm 145:17-21 Sermon Notes

Noah, A Man Who Stood Out (Genesis 6:7-7:24)

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. Romans 1:18-20 Sermon Notes

Only Evil All The Time (Genesis 6:1-7)

Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief.  The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst.  But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners,…

A Godly Remnant (Genesis 4:17-5:32)

Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.  While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.  You are all children of the light and children of…

Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:1-16)

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires.  Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness.  For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace. Romans 6:12-14 Sermon Notes

The Cost of Rebellion (Genesis 3:14-24)

So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me.  For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me.  What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death?  Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ…

Adam & Eve’s Rebellion (Genesis 3:1-13)

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ! Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people.  For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one…
