GENESIS 9 IN ONE WORD
As I have been looking at this chapter over the last couple of days off and on, there is one word that continually comes to mind. This one word could sum up the first part of chapter 9 as God gives various commands and we see the focal point of the text. What is it? Thanks for watching!
SONS OF GOD & THE NEPHILIM (GENESIS 6)
The sons of God. The Nephilim. Genesis 6 has sparked the curiosity of more than one person as they seek to understand who these two groups of people are. I think though that in the midst of curiosity and pressing to find an answer that you’ll find that many people skip over the greater message God is trying to get across–the totality of man’s sinfulness and evil.

JUDGEMENT (PSALM 1)
We’ve all heard it said before, “Don’t judge!” Underlying the statement is the concern that mankind unfairly judges others. God does not though.

Take a moment to watch and consider.
BABYLON BROUGHT TO RUIN (REVELATION 17-19)
Chapters 17 & 18 have been confusing to me as it looks at Babylon with two very different descriptions. Here is a general overview of what is going on here as well as some overall reminders we gain from the text. Revelation 17-19 NET
ATTENTION EARTH! (REVELATION 8-9)
We’ve all had that moment in our lives when we try to get the attention of someone, but nothing works apart from being up front in the face or giving them a shake and saying: “Hey you!” Revelation 8-9 are a “Hey You!” to the earth. Yet as God brings his judgement we find the sad description of the people of the day at the end of ch. 9. Take a moment to read these chapters & watch. Revelation 8-9…
