The Beginning and Faith in God 

Genesis 11:27-25:18 part 2

(Reading 22:1-19)

 

  Abraham and God’s promises …

 

            .. and God’s covenant

 

 

  How is Abraham an example of trusting God?

 

Are you a child of Abraham?

The Beginning and God’s  Promises

Genesis 11:27-25:18 part 1 (Reading 12:1-9)

 Genesis is an orderly and structured account

  That introduces God’s creation and God’s unfolding plan… 

  ..the promise of God’s People in God’s Place under God’s rule

  Where do you fit?

(preacher: Steve Blencowe)

 

THE BEGINNING AND THE END

Genesis 1:1-11:26 (Reading 3:1-20)

The beginning of life

… and death

The beginning of judgment

… and salvation

The beginning and The End

So, where does that leave us?

Power in Weakness

2 Corinthians 11-13 (Reading 11:30-12:18)

 

The apostle’s defence of the gospel and his ministry in Corinth is loaded with lessons for us, including these:

 

Don’t get distracted from the gospel of Jesus

 

Expect challenges while we wait for Jesus to return

 

And remember: 

 

God’s grace is sufficient

 

God’s power is made perfect in weakness

(Preacher: Steve Blencowe)
