Who is in control, and who has your best interests at heart? These two questions are at the crux of story #2 in this series.
Ken Boa introduces this new series based on his book coauthored with John Alan Turner. The first teaching focuses on the creation story, taken from Genesis 1 and 2.
Genesis 6 documents the radical measures God took to address increasingly rampant human wickedness and preserve a godly remnant of people for Himself, through one family.
The metaphor of God as our shepherd and God’s people as the sheep of his pasture runs through Scripture from Genesis to Revelation. The most famous of these references is certainly Psalm 23.
In this wisdom psalm, God invites us to consider the skies (His world) and the Scriptures (His word), and to then respond to this general and special revelation by turning our souls to Him in repentance (His way).
Psalm 1 contrasts two ways of living, the way of the righteous and the way of the wicked. The thought life is key to both, and this psalm not only encourages a disciplined thought life leading to a fruitful life, but also describes the means and the motivation for this discipline. (This is part 1 in the Favorite Psalms article series.)
The murder of Abel by brother Cain serves as a prototype of the hostility and social degeneration caused by the pride and selfishness of sin; although Abel’s line was cut off, God replaced him with Seth, through whom the Messiah would eventually spring forth.
Ken Boa discusses the critical book of Genesis 3, where we gain an understanding of the condition of mankind and the world today. Without this chapter, little else in the Bible makes sense. Here, we see that the primary problem is our broken relationship with God due to our sin.
Ken Boa teaches on the first chapter of Genesis, the “book of beginnings,” in this new series in his Wednesday Morning Bible Study on 365 key chapters in the Bible.
