The only race in the Bible is the human race. But there are three families who work best if helping each other. Speaking in the city of Athens in the first century, the apostle Paul makes the statement that God “has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face […]

This is one of the tough questions in the Bible. It’s also an amazing miracle: a curse turned into a blessing. What people often call the curse on Ham (really the curse on Canaan) has been abused as an excuse for enslaving the black man. What a horrid misuse of the Bible! Ham’s mistreatment of […]
This isn’t like a beer ad: good-looking people having a great time. It’s not champagne, either; it’s real pain. The world, as described in Genesis 8, had a fresh start. Well, almost. The one thing that hadn’t changed was the human heart. God paints an honest portrait of humanity, warts and all. Imagine Noah, listed […]
How long have you got on the planet? We don’t leave in order, do we! Probably good to get your bags packed. The earth had been swept clean by the flood. Just one family was left to re-populate the world. Noah, we read, is now 600 years old! How could people live that long? One […]
Here is the ultimate reset in history, when God performed radical surgery to give us humans another chance.

Doors are a decision; they keep some things in and other things out. Ever wonder why Jesus is called the Door? The apostle Peter tells us that it was actually Jesus, by the Spirit, who preached all those years through Noah, pleading with the people to turn from sin to safety. And today, when we […]
Building, not bending, the Ark of history, because history isn’t heading where most people think it’s going. Noah and his sons were instructed by the Lord: “Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch….The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its […]
Did you know the Bible predicts people will be mocking God at the end of history just like in Noah’s day? Some clever people think the story of Noah is an old fable. Jesus didn’t. He believed Noah was a historical figure, and said so. So did the writers of both the Old and New […]
