The Doctrine of salvation lesson 6
The Presence of sin Part 2
In this lesson the lecture continued on the presence of sin and how by Adam sin has entered the world or by one man. He explained how sin is present at conception of a child and not at birth, this still is quite interesting as it is so easy to believe that that sin can only be present in a child’s life at a later…

MODULE 3: SESSION 17: The Flood Waters Recede
The restoration of people and animals to the land after the flood is both a re-creation and a new creation. Creation in the biblical imagination is about more than where things began; it’s about the transition from non-order to order and the transition from death to life. Noah, his…

MODULE 4: SESSION 16: The Flood Overwhelms the Land
In most of the cases people may end up feeling that God has forgotten them indicating that experiencing God is a walk which requires patience in learning of his ways and hearing for his directions. This feeling is mostly seen in Psalms where you see people somehow complaining…

That’s right! God never forsakes His own. Even when we feel abandoned and forgotten, God is ever near and seeks our very best.

MODULE 4: The Flood
SESSION 15: The Flood as Cosmic Collapse
The cosmology of the ancient biblical authors—three tiers: waters below, the dry land, and waters above is crucial to understanding the meaning of the flood. The language that’s describing the flood is describing neither a local flood nor a global flood. It’s…

MODULE 3: SESSION 14: The Ark as a Symbolic Eden and Tabernacle

MODULE 3: SESSION 13: The Ark as A Symbolic Eden and Tabernacle
The word tebah, translated as “ark,” is an Egyptian loanword that means sacred shrine, sarcophagus, or box. The ark is a symbolic Eden temple. Its design matches the three-tiered structure of sacred spaces: the garden in Eden, the tabernacle, and the temple. The…
