It is possible to take the notion of trying to find good in everyone or only trying to find good in everyone too far. If we were all good all the time, the Bible wouldn't need to remind us that love covers a multitude of sins nor would God's word repeat to us the importance of being patient with and forgiving one another. In this podcast, we discuss the balance between loving others and understanding that there are wolves in sheep's clothing we have to deal with in the world.

In two different places, Jesus provides a summary of scripture as it existed in His day, a summary of God's moral law.

Where did the church come from and what structure is it supposed to take? The answers to these questions determine not only what the church is but how we are to interact with it.

In Genesis chapter 12 the Bible takes a dramatic turn and begins to focus on one family which has been promised to produce one person who will bless all the other families to ever exist. The first eleven chapters of Genesis teach fundamental lessons about the nature of God and man and the origin and consequences of sin. But beginning in Genesis 12, the focus turns to tracing the promises and fulfillment of the line of a single family in history. The lessons of Genesis 12 is that God always had plan to deal with humanity's sin and that for us to understand that plan we had to understand and track Abraham and his descendants.

There is one main lesson for modern Christians in Genesis chapter 11, which is a reinforcement of a lesson on our motives first brought to light in Genesis chapter 4.

In Genesis chapter nine, we see God repeating some commands previously given to Adam and Eve and adding to or changing other commands. Genesis ten reminds us all of our common beginnings.
