Redeeming Scripture Archives - Page 42 of 59

This study of Genesis 3:1 introduces the most important truth in all of Scripture. I believe that the truth you will learn today is discussed or explained or revealed in some way on almost every page of the Bible, and yet, amazingly, most of us have never seen that it is there. This is because the truth we see today is a truth hidden from the foundation of the world. It is also a truth revealed most clearly by Jesus.

The Text of Genesis 3:1

Genesis 3:1. Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

In this discussion of Genesis 3:1 we look at:

The word for “serpent” and “cunning” in Genesis 3:1
What might have really happened between Genesis 2:25 and Genesis 3:1
Why Eve might not be the guilty one after all
Why scapegoating is the most important truth in Scripture

[#37] Genesis 3 Introduction

By Jeremy Myers

3 Comments

This podcast episode provides the normal explanation of Genesis 3.

There is nothing really wrong with this traditional explanation of Genesis 3. When I was a pastor I preached through Genesis, and I went back and looked at my sermon notes on Genesis 3, and what I am going to share with you today is what I would have preached 20 years ago from Genesis 3.

But now I believe there are many more significant truth from Genesis 3 that we miss. I will point those out in future podcast episodes.

In this discussion of Genesis 3 we look at:

The normal explanation of Genesis 3
The identity of the Serpent
How Eve added to the law of God
The consequences of eating from the Forbidden Tree

Resources:

The Lust of the Flesh (Luke 4:1-4)
The Lust of the Eyes and the Pride of Life (Luke 4:5-13)

By Jeremy Myers

This is the summary episode of Genesis 2. If you have listened to all the other episodes on Genesis 2, this episode will serve as a good reminder of what we have seen.

If you have not listened to most of the episodes, or don’t have time to listen to them all, but you want to get up to speed in our study of Genesis so far, this will be a good episode to listen to.

In this discussion of Genesis 2 we look at:

A summary of everything we have learned from Genesis 2
The Differences Between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2
Genesis 2 is a Temple Text
What is the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil?
Humans are made for Relationships
Humans are made to Imitate

[#35] Genesis 2:25 – Naked and Unafraid

By Jeremy Myers

3 Comments

Today’s One Verse Podcast is rated PG-13. Well, maybe PG. But either way, when you hear what I am talking about in this episode, you might be encouraged to gather your children around anyway and have them listen to this episode as well.

If you have been struggling about how to have “that talk” with your son or daughter, this episode might just provide the encouragement to stop being ashamed and afraid, but instead to revel and rejoice in one of God’s greatest gifts to humankind.

Let’s stop hiding in the shadows and living in fear, and instead go boldly forth, naked and unafraid.

Well, maybe not literally. But you’ll see what I mean.

The Text of Genesis 2:25

And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

In this discussion of Genesis 2:25 we look at:

Six ways I could have explained Genesis 2:25
What is really going on in Genesis 2:25
How the Gilgamesh Epic shows us that sex is in view.
Why we Christians should not be afraid or ashamed of sex.

[#34] Genesis 2:24 – Leave and Cleave?

By Jeremy Myers

5 Comments

What does Genesis 2:24 mean when it says that a man will leave his parents and cleave to his wife? Does this mean we should abandon our parents for the sake of our wife?

This is what we’re going to talk about in this study of Genesis 2:24.

The Text of Genesis 2:24

Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

In this discussion of Genesis 2:24 we look at:

Various Bible verses that have caused marital strife.
How Genesis 2:24 may not mean what we think it means.
How Genesis 2:24 follows Adam’s statement in Genesis 2:23.
Why leaving parents doesn’t mean abandoning.
Why it is important to cleave to your spouse.
