At this point, the Creator seems to take a break from direct involvement with humans, except for one man, Abraham. He's the beginning of God's plan to save humans from themselves and to give them a new heart.

    T.S. Eliot, wrote,“The world turns and the world changes, But one thing does not change. In all of my years, one thing does not change, However you disguise it, this thing does not change: The perpetual struggle of Good and Evil.” (taken from "The Rock")Cain, the firstborn human, is also the first to hate, to lie, to use brotherly "love" for deception, and the first to murder. He is also the first example of religious persecution. He killed his brother because of the open way he worshipped the Creator God. Soon, Cain's descendants fill the earth with violence and ambition for conquest and human greatness. In the Bible, he becomes the head of an unbroken line of humans at war with God. They are referred to as "the children of the devil". In their sights are those who are loyal and loving toward the Creator God. Join us for this episode of Thread where we investigate the origins of evil on the planet and the roots of the spiritual war that began in the murder of Cain and continues until the return of Christ to defeat this army and its capital city, Babylon.

God gave us the ability to reason and to look into the nature of things and to experiment and to evolve mentally. What we need is not another level of denial about proven scientific facts, but a deeper understanding of both science and the Bible and we'll see that they can both be friends. All truth is God's truth and science can only study what truly is as long as it stays out of politics and religion or anti-religion which is more the case today.In this episode, we work to understand the overall purpose of the Bible and of the Genesis narrative in particular. Once we know what we are and aren't looking at, we can focus and see the amazing message God has sent to us through the creation narrative of Genesis 1-3, the foundation for the drama that continues throughout the Bible, to the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus to the Book of Revelation.

    Hi! Welcome to Thread, Season 4! We're back with more verse-by-verse Bible study so you can build spiritual muscle through God's word. For this season, we're choosing to go carefully through Ge. 1-12 because it's the place to begin if you want to understand the message of the whole Bible properly. Western Civilization, with its emphasis on the worth of each individual and the equality of all persons, is birthed with one verse in chapter one of Genesis, "So God created man in his image. In the image of God created he him, male and female created he them."Genesis has teaching about ecology, the dominion of mankind upon the earth, the spiritual war in the heavenlies, and the forsaken tree of life, the scene of the original rebellion that spoiled the creation and set in motion God's plan to reclaim the world He had created.I've spent the last 2 years studying Ge 1-12. It's been an amazing journey! I feel like I'm just now understanding the core story of the Bible after 35 years studying it and I can't wait to share it with you.Join our list by clicking here and you'll be the first to receive notice of each new episode of Thread, Season Four as it is released each Tuesday.Welcome to Season Four, we're glad you could join us!Chuck Quinley and Thread teamMusic by Ryan Andersen and Ross SchmidtRyan Andersen is licensed under an Attribution-NonCommercial License.Thread Bible Podcast is produced and edited by Ross Schmidt and is brought to you by Medialightasia.com
