John 6:33

Today’s Bible Reading

The Genesis flood was worldwide, rising above the mountains by more than 20 feet. Every person, land animal, and bird were wiped out. Only those aboard the ark were kept safe.

The Genesis flood was worldwide, rising above the mountains by more than 20 feet. Every person, land animal, and bird were wiped out. Only those aboard the ark were kept safe.

The LORD is amazingly patient, giving the wicked pre-flood world 120 years to repent. But when nothing changes, His judgement falls swiftly and terribly. Yet, by preserving Noah and his family through the Flood, the LORD keeps His promise to one day send the world a Savior.

It’s astounding how long people before the flood lived. But more to the point of the chapter is the sad refrain: “And he died!” Seth is born in the image of sinful Adam, as are we all. Only the promised Savior can restore to sinners the image of God. Through faith in that Savior people are saved from death and hell.

Though very much mistaken, Eve believes her firstborn is the promised Savior, thus showing that she is a believer in the Coming Savior. With Cain and Abel we see how man will be forever after divided, with some stubbornly rejecting Christ, while others, by the grace of God, receiving Christ in faith as their Savior.

Cast down from Heaven, Satan goes after what God loves most: Adam and Eve. Choosing to believe Satan’s lies, the two rebel against their Creator, plunging the entire human race into death and damnation. Yet, with incredible compassion, God comes to the rescue. The promised Offspring of the Woman will triumph over the Serpent to save sinners.

Daily Devotions

Since they are the crown of His creation, God goes into more detail about how He made the first humans. With special care God forms Adam from dust, and then, just as carefully, fashions Eve from one of Adam’s ribs. By telling them not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, God gives Adam and Eve the opportunity to express their love for Him.
