From Gen. 9:19-10:32 I want to point out five key subjects that will help us understand why Noah’s drunkenness is recorded, the reason for the genealogy in Gen. 10, and how they both relate to the Tower of Babel in Gen. 11, so we can marvel at the wisdom of God displayed in His Word.

From Gen. 9:8-17 I want to point out seven characteristics of the covenant that God made with Noah, his sons, all humanity, and all the creatures of the earth, so you will know what the Noahic covenant is, the true meaning of the rainbow, and be moved to praise, thank, and give God glory for extending undeserved mercy and grace after judging the world with a flood.

From Genesis 9:1-7, Pastor Jack will show two main expressions of God’s grace after the flood, so that we can be blessed in the world in which we live, give God glory, and worship Him with gladness.

Have you ever had trouble sleeping at night because of anxiety, fear, anger, or sorrow? Biblically what should we do to deal with our anxious, sleepless nights in a God glorifying way? This is what Kind David teaches us in Psalm 63.

From Genesis 8:1-19, Pastor Jack draws our attention to four observations that will help us understand the events that led to the end of the flood and Noah and the animals leaving the ark, while providing practical application for our lives.

Our text is both sobering and encouraging. Sobering because we see the judgment that fell on the wicked, violent, and corrupt world of men in Noah’s day. Yet encouraging because we see absolute faithfulness of God in fulfilling His Word. Now consider, if you are going to get into the ark of refuge, safety, and salvation from God’s judgment, several things need to happen: 1) You need a merciful war...

Noah and his family believed and acted upon the Word of God and entered into the ark, they rose above the judgment of the flood. In like manner, all who hear the gospel of grace and place their faith in Jesus Christ, will rise above the fiery judgment of God to come.

Often when people are saved by grace and delivered from the wrath of God to come, they forget that they were saved by grace, that they didn’t deserve or earn salvation. They didn’t receive God’s mercy and grace because they were wonderful or amazing people. We see the same kind of compassion, kindness, and grace, extended from God to the ancient world of very corrupt, wicked, and violent men, thro...

In this sermon, we come to a text that tells us about the righteous and the wicked during the time immediately preceding the flood. Both groups teach us important lessons for life and how to live for the glory of God. The two groups we will encounter in our text are indicative of any time in history or any church.

In this sermon, we are going to look at one of the key texts in all the Bible on the depravity of man. Specifically, the depravity of man before the flood and the reason God sent the flood upon the earth to drown man, beasts, crawling creatures, and birds, and at the same time, extend mercy and grace to a remnant and multitudes of others in the future of mankind.

In this sermon, Pastor Jack speaks on the one thing that is necessary in our Christian walks, which is through sitting at the feet of Jesus just as we learn through Mary's example. You must let Jesus shepherd you, serve you, minister to you, equip you, and care for your burdens. You will learn that the core and foundation of Christianity is your relationship with Jesus. Jesus is the great shepherd...

In this sermon, we will step away from Gen. 4 to look at the great chapter of faith, Heb. 11. The author of Hebrews speaks of needing to have faith in creation, points us to Abel, who worshipped God in faith, mentions Cain, who did not worship God in faith, and then mentions Enoch, who walked with God by faith. From Heb. 11:5-6 I want to point out first, Enoch, our example of faith, and second, th...

From Gen. 4:9-15 I want to show you six different responses between the Lord and Cain, so that you can be reminded that God is a God of great mercy and grace, even to the vilest of sinner, which should make you love and praise Him even more.

From Gen. 4:1-8 I would like to point out seven pairs of like-truths from our text, so that we can learn why the world and mankind are the way they are and be reminded of why everyone needs the grace of God in Christ Jesus if we hope to give our Creator glory and escape judgment.

"You see the killing of innocent animals by the Lord, was a lesson for Adam and Eve. They would then know, by the Lord’s example, that sin requires sacrifice and sacrifice leads to atonement and reconciliation with God. This is the doctrine of substitution."
