Rightly Dividing

Introduction I don't know about you, but I have read the Bible so many times where I read and knew what I read but never really thought about it more than superficially. Understanding how a tool works and how to use it are two different things. We have to meditate on what we read and think of how what we have learned can become beneficial; being good citizens of God's kingdom is learning t...

What is a good person, and why try to be one? These questions lead us to some thoughts that the Bible answers. If you don't like the Biblical answers, you must develop one that makes sense and is based on reason. Genesis leads us down this pathway, and we will look at that today.

The story of Cain and Able is old but for a good reason. It is history to learn from. The moral agents God created to rule with Him have chosen to let sin into their lives. Maybe we haven't murdered, but we have chosen to do the wrong things. Sin is like a parasite; it will never leave once you invite it in unless Jesus cleanses you from all sin.

In this video, we will take an honest look at Genesis and the garden's setting within the world at large. Understanding the difference between the two can help us come to some reasonable conclusions about death. Is Answers in Genesis right?

Only an idiot would live without a worldview. Having thought about the four big questions and coming to a conclusion is the rational way to live out your life. This video will look at the best way to have a good worldview.

When God created the first humans, they were naked and felt no shame. Then something changed all that. They made a bad attempt to cover themselves and hid from God. In this video, we will see how God handled this problem.

Life is a miracle, no matter how you think it came to be. The creation of life from non-life is a mystery. If you believe God created life, then it should be easy to believe in a resurrection.

In the garden, God created two trees that represented choices the humans had to make. These first humans choose to do the wrong thing. Sin entered the world. God then placed cherubs at the garden entrance to forbid them access to the tree of life. Thousands of years later, Jesus came and was innocently crucified on a Roman cross known as a tree. https://husbandman.org

Some do not like to believe in sin; they hate the concept and word SIN! If you believe in right and wrong, you believe in sin. Sin is a word used for doing wrong. The question is, are we held accountable for sin? In this episode, we will examine what the Bible says about evil. Even if you do not believe the Bible, you must somehow reconcile how to deal with sin. https://Husbandman.org

If we consider our choices, we have to consider what options are. Are the chemical process in the brain that we have no control over? Is there final justice for the good and bad decisions we make? If we choose to love, is it real or just a deception? One has to start with a foundation that is either we are an accident or a creation. If there was no purpose to our existence, then there is no purpos...

People have trouble with kinds because they have been confused by evolution. Even a child knows what a kind is! Genesis is scientifically correct when it states that God made kinds because everyone experiences the reality of kinds.

Genesis helps us understand who we are as humans. We are not an accident; we are the creation of a God who desires our best. Part of love is to teach right from wrong, and God is loving. In this video, we will look at how God created us and the plan He has for our life. The primary function of the human body is reproduction. Just as all living things, we are made to reproduce.

In this episode, we will look at the creation of man and the garden. Everyone needs a story for their life. The story creates a purpose. The story needs to be something you can believe in, or else it will not help at all. If you can find a better story about why you exist and your purpose in life, then believe! I have not found one, and so Genesis is my story.

The Sabbath was a civil law that came from the Ten Commandments. We do not have to keep a civil law because we are not part of the nation of Israel. However, we do have to keep the purpose of the Sabbath command, which is to put our faith into practice and trust God for all our needs. website: https:/husbandman.org

In this episode, we will consider if the sun was created long ago with the universe or if it was created on day four.

In this video, I want to walk you through my process of how I learn to understand the Bible. It is through a series of questions.

Some say the soul sleep in an unconscious state at death while other say we are immediately in the presence of the Lord. Can the sleep and being in the presence of the Lord be reconciled? Find out in this episode.

I start with the words of Jesus to repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. We ask ourselves what kingdom is Jesus talking about and that takes us back to Genesi.

What is my purpose in life? Genesis Answers this! It is possible Genesis 1:26-31 is specifically talking about the garden, and if so, it has some powerful meanings, like why we exist.

In this episode, I try to finish up the week so that we can move on to chapter two. Chapter to is where the real theology starts to form.

This podcast is about the second day and the waters above the firmament. There has been some controversy over this text, but that is largely due to the fact that some want to make Genesis a scientific discourse. This is what I am apposed to. What is so vitally important is that we read Genesis without connecting to a scientific theory on how things happen. In this case we are not concern about why...

Let there be light. In the previous episodes, I have been trying to show that we must read Genesis as story telling us why our universe and we humans exist because it is was written to give meaning to our existence. If we remove ourselves from interpreting it as a timeline of events describing the creation process, it becomes possible to think about the text with fresh eyes. To demonstrate this, I...

In this episode, I talk about how Genesis should be read as a teleology that gives meaning to our world instead of a narrative explaining how it came to be. We want to know why more than how. People want to know they are loved by their parents more than how they conceived them. I am not aware of anyone who struggles with life because of not understanding conception, but I have met people strugglin...

Whether you realize it or not the way we think about the world today is very different than the way people thought about the world in the past. This is because all people alive have lived in the age of enlightenment. This age started in the 17th century and has change the way most of the humanity views the world and the universe. We think different than people in the past! We must consciously thin...

To understand a text correctly, you need to figure out its purpose. If your boss got a love letter, you wrote to your husband, and your husband got the letter written to your boss, they would be pretty confused. So today, we will look at why and who Genesis was written to.
