    218 Thrive Deeper: Genesis 9-15

    Genesis 8-9: The Flood ends, Noah's family and animals leave the ark, and God establishes a covenant with Noah, symbolized by a rainbow. Genesis 10: Lists the genealogies of Noah's sons, showing the spread of nations. Genesis 11: The Tower of Babel; God confuses human language and scatters people across the earth. Genealogies lead to Abram. Genesis 12: God calls Abram to Canaan, promising to make him a great nation. Abram travels to Canaan and then Egypt due to famine. Genesis 13: Abram and Lot separate; Abram settles in Canaan, and God reaffirms His promise to him. Genesis 14: Abram rescues Lot from captivity, meets Melchizedek, and refuses reward from the king of Sodom. Genesis 15: God establishes a covenant with Abram, promising numerous descendants and the land of Canaan. Significance of Abram Abram, later named Abraham, is a pivotal figure in the biblical narrative for several reasons: Father of Many Nations: Abram is seen as the patriarch of the Israelite nation and Christianity. His obedience to God's call and God's promises to him set the foundation for the nation of Israel. Covenant with God: The covenant established with Abram is central to the entire biblical narrative. It's a significant precursor to the later covenants with Isaac, Jacob, and ultimately, the people of Israel. Model of Faith: Abram's faith in God's promises, despite his circumstances, is highlighted in the New Testament (Romans 4, Hebrews 11) as an example of faith for believers. His trust in God’s promises, even when they seemed impossible, is a cornerstone of Christian faith. Blessing to All Nations: God's promise to bless all nations through Abram finds fulfillment in Jesus Christ, a descendant of Abram, who brings salvation to all humanity. Abram's story marks the beginning of God's plan to restore and bless the world through a chosen people, which ultimately points to the redemption narrative central to the Bible.

    214 Thrive Deeper: 1,2, 3 John & Jude

    The books of 1 2 & 3 John, are letters written by the Apostle John, emphasising the importance of love, truth, and fellowship with God. John encourages the relatively new Christian movement of believers – the Church - to walk in the light, love one another, and reject false teachings. He highlights the assurance of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ and the need for believers to live righteously, reflecting God's love in their actions. In 2 John, John writes a brief letter to a specific church congregation, urging them to continue walking in truth and love. Again, he warns against false teachers who deny the incarnation of Jesus Christ and encourages the recipients to remain faithful to the teachings of Christ. 3 John is a personal letter from the Apostle John to his friend Gaius. John commends Gaius for his faithfulness and hospitality towards traveling missionaries. He contrasts Gaius's positive example with the negative behavior of Diotrephes, who refuses to welcome the missionaries and seeks to undermine John's authority. The book of Jude, written by Jude, the brother of James (and half brother of Jesus), warns against false teachers who have infiltrated the Christian community. Jude urges believers to contend for the faith and remain steadfast in their commitment to Christ. He highlights the importance of building oneself up in faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, and showing mercy to those who doubt. Jude concludes with a beautiful blessing, praising God for His ability to keep believers from falling and to present them blameless before His presence.
