Sermons on Genesis (II) - The Fall of Man and The Perfect Salvation of God

Ch2-1. The Blessings That God Has Given Us (Genesis 2:1-3)

Today’s Scripture passage tells us that while God created the whole universe, it is through this planet earth in particular, where mankind lives, that God has given us His blessings. Scientists are endlessly searching this universe for life outside the planet earth, wondering if mankind could live in another planet. However, what is more important for us is to know and believe is that it is God who, indeed, made this planet.   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch2-2. Mankind’s Thoughts Are Like Fog (Genesis 2:4-6)

We all live everyday by God’s guidance and grace. We feed on new spiritual bread everyday, and I am very happy to share it with you. In today’s Scripture passage, our Lord said, “Before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground; but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground.”   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch2-3. We Have Met Jesus Christ Our Bridegroom (Genesis 2:21-25)

Let us first turn to Ephesians 5:31-32 here: “‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.” That a man should leave his parents and become one flesh joined with his wife is the Word that reveals the mystery about the relationship between Christ and His Church. Marriage is the union of a man and a woman into one body. The Bible says that for someone to leave his parents and become one with Jesus Christ, he must believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. We believe that we are made God’s children and the people of His Kingdom by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. God’s Church is “Ekklesia” in Greek, meaning the gathering of those whom God called from the world.   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch3-1. The Truth Does Not Change Regardless of How Many People Might Deny It (Genesis 3:1-4)

Galileo Galilei is famous for saying, “Yet the earth still moves.” He was born in 1564, at a time when the authority of the Catholic Church extended all over Europe. Before Galilei, there actually was someone else, a man named Copernicus, who had argued that the earth revolved around the sun. At that time, however, Copernicus’ theory was not accepted at all. Later on, as Galilei observed the heavenly bodies with his telescope, he came to discover the validity of Copernicus’ heliocentric theory.   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]

Ch3-2. Sin Came to Enter This World (Genesis 3:1-6)

Through chapter three of the Book of Genesis, God is telling us that Satan does exist, and that as Satan tempted and deceived man, the Devil prevented him from believing in God and made him fall into sin, thus introducing sin into the human heart. When we read chapter one and two of Genesis, we see how God made each animal according to its kind, but it does not say that God made Satan. Nor does it say that God made angels. However, when we turn to chapter three, it does speak of the serpent, and we can see how the serpent led Adam and Eve to disobey the Word of God and eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. At this point we are now acquainted with the Devil, whose work is to stand against God. It is written, “He said to the woman, ‘Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?’”   https://www.bjnewlife.org/  [https://www.bjnewlife.org/] https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission  [https://youtube.com/@TheNewLifeMission] https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35  [https://www.facebook.com/shin.john.35]
