Circumcision is introduced, signifying baptism. Sodom and Gomorrah is destroyed. Sarah finally conceives and Isaac is born. Abraham's greatest test to sacrifice his beloved son, Isaac.

Text: Genesis 12-17; Abraham 1-2 Supplemental Text: The First 2,000 Years chapters 23-27 BYU Lecture 9: The church will not save the Constitution – it will be saved by the Elders of Israel. Political education is crucial by the members of the church because the Church itself cannot get involved in the fight. Stay close to the prophet as the Lord is beginning to hasten His work. After Noah came to the new world, God reaffirmed His commandments. Note that murder is punishable by death. Nimrod abandoned the priesthood culture and formed his own community called Babel. He convinced his followers to begin idolatry, astrology and fertility worship. To defy God, or avoid the punishments of God, he commenced the building of the tower of Babel. After the confusion of tongues, the land divided and people began to spread across the world. The seed of Ham, or Hamites, settled in Egypt; the seed of Shem, or shemites, settled in the middle East and Mesopotamia with their capital in Salem (Jerusalem); the seed of Japeth settled north and east of the Mediterranean Sea clear to the areas of India and China. Brother Skousen promises to get caught up to Abraham and Isaac in the next lecture.

Text:  Genesis 25:1-18   God Ordains Our Habitations (Gen. 25:1-11) God's providence extends over all peoples and all locations. God sovereignly places us in history and in our surroundings for His purposes (Acts 17:24-28).   God Ordains Our Generations (Gen. 25:12-18) God ordains the generations of all peoples, and His providence extends to the hardships we endure. The generations in Genesis all point to Christ, the final fulfillment and Abraham's promised seed who would bring salvation.

This week, we have 2 lectures to keep pace for those following the Come Follow Me program. Text: Genesis 6-11; Moses 8 Supplemental Text: The First 2,000 Years chapters 20-22 BYU Lecture 7: The Great Universal Flood Due to the wickedness of the people, similar to the wickedness of today, God cleanses the Human race by using a universal Flood. Noah obeys the Lord and builds an enormous ark, but only he, his wife, and 3 of his sons along with their wives survive. Has the ark been discovered on Mt. Ararat? Discussion of the need for a righteous government to govern a righteous people. There is a great need to conserve the Constitution. A good student will solve problems by using Constitutional principles. He must study in fairness all sides of important issues and make intelligent decisions that build a righteous people.   The Law of Consecration must be restored among a righteous people but only under the direction of the priesthood. God's work will prevail. BYU Lecture 8: Mankind Expands Across the Land After the Flood. After the flood and the ark settles, the family of Noah enters the new world. As they descend from the mount, the families of Japheth, Shem and Ham go their separate ways and begin again to populate the earth. Different races across the world can be traced to the three sons of Noah; Slavic and Orientals traced to Japheth, Arabic, Jewish and Caucasian traced to Shem, and Blacks traced to Ham. Egypt means “black” and it's evident from the mummy discoveries that Egypt had many different dynasties from both Ham and Shem. This concludes the First 2,000 Years and the supplemental text now begins in The Third Thousand Years.

BYU Lecture #4 - Why was the Atonement necessary?

Scripture: Genesis 46 Text: Genesis 46 Theme: Trust in God's promise to provide a home now and forevermore.

Sometimes we can get so focused on our world, our family, our life that we forget that there is so much more to this planet.  The mission of God is a mission that can simultaneously be micro focused on you, while working for the blessing and good of the world.Text: Genesis 12:1-3Big Idea: God promises to bless the nations.Key Question: What does God do to bless the nations?1. God forms a people for his purpose. (vs. 1-2a)2. God blesses his people. (vs. 2a, 3a)3. God blesses the nations through his people. (vs. 2b, 3b)

New years often bring new plans for your life.  We sit and draft grand dreams of the impact our lives will have on the world only to have abandoned many of them a few weeks later.  Humanity was created and designed with a particular mission in mind, and very soon after we traded in God's grand designs for the plans of our own.  In the message Pastor FIkre Prince shares that God has a way of bringing us back from mission drift and helping us to fulfill our role in the earth.Text: Genesis 11:1-9 Sermon Summary:Big Idea: God disrupts human pride to advance his mission.Key Question: How does God disrupt our pride to advance his mission?1.     God exposes our false self-sufficiency. (vv. 1-5)2.     God hinders our collective power. (vv. 6-7)3.     God overcomes our prideful resistance. (vv. 8-9)

Scripture: Genesis 45 Text: Genesis 45 Theme: Trust in God to provide blessings and an eternal home through the work of His Mediator.

The bigining of each year generally has people questioning or planning what they desire the year to look like.  Many of us consider where we have been and the challeneges we've faced to try to find the path forward to where we want to go.  We chart our own course, and pursue our own mission.  What if there was more to the story than what we desire and what we feel?  In this message Pastor Fikre Prince shares that all of humanity was created with a particular mission and purpose, and starting at that point is the best way to find joy, and have peace for the journey.Text: Genesis 1:26-30Sermon Summary:Big Idea: God created humanity to fill the earth with his glory.Key Question: How was humanity to fill the earth with God's glory?1.     Humanity was given God's image. (vv. 26a, 27)2.     Humanity was given God's mission. (vv. 26b, 28b)3.     Humanity was given God's blessing. (vv. 28a, 29-30)

Pastor Andy Cass A puzzle that's 99.9% finished is still 100% frustrating — because every piece matters. In this message, Legacy, Pastor Andy reminds us that God has called each of us to start, continue, and complete projects that will last beyond our lifetime. Through the stories of Abraham and Saul, we see two men, two trees, and two very different postures. Abraham planted a tamarisk tree — a symbol of faith, covenant, and legacy that would outlive him. Saul sat under a tamarisk tree — consumed by insecurity, fear, and self-preservation. One built a future; the other destroyed what was entrusted to him. TEXT: Genesis 21:33–34, 1 Samuel 22:6, Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 23:11–12, Colossians 3:23–24, Philippians 2:14–15 Big Questions: What project does God have for me to start? What project can I continue? What project does God have for me to complete? Abraham and Saul: Two Legacies, Two Trees Abraham planted a tamarisk tree — a symbol of faith, covenant, and hospitality. He looked forward, trusted God, and built something that would last. Saul sat under a tamarisk tree — a symbol of entitlement, fear, and isolation. He chose control over surrender, comfort over calling. The Contrast: Abraham's heart: humble, faithful, centered on God's promises. Saul's heart: insecure, prideful, disconnected from God's presence. Abraham planted; Saul uprooted. Posture & Attitude: Thanksgiving Gratitude Commitment Peace Reliance on the Holy Spirit and wise community Call to Action: Plant something that will outlast you — a faith, a family, a ministry, a legacy.

Text: Genesis 3:1-7, Luke 2:1-7 Christmas is easily the most popular yet underestimated holiday in the Christian calendar.

This week Pastor Pace continues this important lesson by teaching how to tell if you're just blessed or a partaker of the inheritance of God's children. Text: Genesis 25:5-6  "5 And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac. 6 But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country."Please hit follow and don't forget to give us a 5-star rating and leave a review.

Text:  Genesis 22:1-24   An Ultimate Test of Faith (Gen. 22:1-2) God tested Abraham's faith by commanding him to offer up his son Isaac as a sacrifice. God tests us to prove the genuineness of our faith and produce steadfastness (James 1:2-4).   An Undaunted Act of Obedience (Gen. 22:3-10) Abraham responds to God in faith, acting in obedience to God's command. Abraham believed that God would provide a lamb for the sacrifice and take care of his son. (Heb. 11:17-19)   An Unfailing Provision of Grace (Gen. 22:11-14) Abraham proved that his faith in God was genuine. God stays Abraham's hand and provides the sacrifice that was required. Jesus, the true and better Isaac, is the sacrificial lamb of God who would be slain for our redemption.   An Unwavering Promise of Blessing (Gen. 22:15-24)  God rewards Abraham for his obedience and reassures Abraham of His promise to bless him and his offspring.

This week Pastor Pace begins teaching a new lesson on who receives the blessings and who receives the inheritance. Text: Genesis 25:5-6 "5 And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac. 6 But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.Please hit follow and don't forget to give us a 5-star rating and leave a review.

Text: Genesis 21:1-34   God's Promise is Fulfilled (Gen. 21:1-7) God proves to be true to His Word as Isaac is born to Abraham and Sarah. Isaac's name (laughter) is proof of God's grace to Abraham and Sarah.   God's Promise is Preserved (Gen. 21:8-21) God sets apart Isaac as the one in whom the promise would be fulfilled. God's electing grace and common grace are on display with Isaac and Ishmael. Galatians 4:21-31 portrays this event as an allegory and how it applies to the Gospel and our identity in Christ.   God's Promise is Progressing (Gen. 21:22-34) Abimelech's treaty with Abraham proves that God's promise of land to Abraham's offspring continues to advance. As Abraham plants a tree in Beersheba, he is planting his faith in an everlasting God who keeps His promises.

Noah – Lesson 1.Text: Genesis 6:1-8Introduction: The story of Noah begins with a description of the times. There was much disobedience, much sinfulness, much rebellion against God. Why is it important for us to understand these times? Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.We too are to be discerners of the times, for we too live in a wicked age, when abject ungodliness is the norm. It is in such times that the Son of Man will unexpectedly return. So what was it like in the days of Noah? And what is meant by, "My spirit shall not always strive with man?"Read the NOTES HERE:This address was given at Templepatrick Reformed Church, and is reproduced here with their kind permission.

Text: Genesis 25:28-34  A sermon in our series through Genesis 

Text:  Genesis 20:1-18   Abraham's Besetting Sin (Gen. 20:1-2) At the crossroads of faith and unbelief, Abram responds in unbelief, just as he did before in Genesis 12:10-20.   God's Sovereign Intervention (Gen. 20:3-7) Abraham's sin seemingly put God's covenant in jeopardy. God shows Himself to be sovereign over all things as He restrains Abimelech and protects Sarah.   Abimelech's Strong Confrontation (Gen. 20:8-13) Abimelech confronts Abraham's lying and deceptive behavior. Abraham is caught in his sin, proving that he had misjudged Abimelech and did not trust in the Lord.   God's Gracious Providence (Gen. 20:14-18) God displays His grace and providence by bringing healing to Abimelech and blessing to Abraham.

Text:  Genesis 19:1-38   Sodom's Violent Wickedness (Gen. 19:1-11) The angels come to Lot's home, and he treats them with hospitality. The angels are met with hostility from the men of Sodom.   God's Merciful Deliverance (Gen. 19:12-22) The angels reveal God's plan of judgment on Sodom and Gomorrah. The angels promise to deliver Lot and his family from the impending destruction. Lot and his family are mercifully removed of the city and told to escape without looking back.    God's Righteous Judgment (Gen. 19:23-29) God sends fiery judgment upon the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah for their wickedness. Lot's wife dies as she disobeys the Lord and looks back at the city. God is mindful of His covenant to Abraham and rescues Lot and his daughters from destruction.   Lot's Final Act and God's Rescuing Grace (Gen. 19:30-38; 2 Peter 2:6-9) Lot and his daughters are responsible for creating two of Israel's greatest enemies. In the end, God's grace is displayed through Lot's rescue and in calling him righteous (2 Peter 2:6-9).

Text: Genesis 18:16-33   God Reveals His Plan to Judge the Wicked (Gen. 18:16-21) God decided to reveal His plan to judge Sodom and Gomorrah to Abraham in light of their covenant relationship. God planned to judge Sodom and Gomorrah because of their grave wickedness and the cries of the oppressed (Ezekiel 16:49-50).   Abraham Intercedes in Prayer for the Wicked (Gen. 18:22-33) Abraham approached God in humble submission. Abraham appealed to God with persistent boldness. God responded to Abraham with benevolent mercy.

Text: Genesis 25:21-27  A sermon in our series through Genesis 

Text: Genesis 18:1-15   The Lord Provides His Presence (Gen. 18:1-8) The Lord personally comes to visit and eat with Abraham along with two other visitors (this is Christ in pre-incarnate form with His angels). Abraham bows in worship, places himself under their authority, and shows them hospitality.   The Lord Guarantees His Promise (Gen. 18:9-15) God personally ensures that His promise to Abraham will take place regardless of the circumstances. Sarah laughs in disbelief to herself in response God's promise. God deepens Sarah's faith in Him by assuring her of His matchless power.
