Scripture Reading Genesis 13:5-13 I there is an example in the Old Testament of a wordly a Christian - it would be a Lot.

Gen 18.1 - 22.24 , 2 Kings 4:1-37 , Luke 17:28-37 Then the Lord appeared to him by the terebinth trees of Mamre, as he was sitting in the tent door in the heat of the day. That word ‘appeared’ carries with it a sense of purpose – God does not appear without purpose or expectations. He appears so that…

We are back in our study of the book of Genesis today. In our series THE PROMISE, we come to Genesis chapter 19 today. If you have read the text or are familiar with the story, you can probably understand why I’m always tempted to focus on the sin of the outsiders in texts like this. They are so obvious…

That may Some things to notice: The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. Most of us read this verse and we probably don’t think much about what we read. But if you were a Jew, the word LORD would spark all sorts…
