1 The Book of Genesis Learning to Read the Bible Effectively

2 The Book of Genesis The Angels of the Lord (Section 34, pg. 145 in Notes)

3 Righteous Lot 2 Peter 2:8 "... turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; (7) And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (8) (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) (9) The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:"

4 The Last Days Luke 17:28-30 "Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; (29) But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. (30) Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed."

5 The Book of Genesis Abraham’s Journey and Second Son (Section 35, pg. 147 in Notes)

6 Lessons From Genesis 20  There is no need for fear because God protects the righteous Psalm 34:7 "The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them."  God works with natural means to protect the righteous from evil Genesis 20:6 "And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her."

8 The Book of Genesis A Prophecy of Christ (Section 36, pg. 149 in Notes)

9 Abraham's Faith Romans 4:18-22 "Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. (19) And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb: (20) He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

10 Isaac's Resurrection Hebrews 11:17-19 "By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son. (18) Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: (19) Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure."

11 Faith Made Perfect James 2:22 "Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? (22) Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?"

12 Are the Promises Fulfilled? Acts 7:2 "And he (God) gave him (Abraham) none inheritance in it (the land), no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child."

13 Are the Promises Fulfilled? Hebrews 11:13 "These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth."

14 Are the Promises Fulfilled? Hebrews 11:39-40 "And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: (40) God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect."
