Genesis 18

The God of justice hates injustice in His creation.

Genesis 16-17

Every man struggles with his faith and every child of God ultimately follows his heavenly Father in fits and starts.

Man is irrationally sinful apart from God, and our memory and knowledge of His great power and holiness are often overwhelmed by our selfishness.

Abraham believes God and God justifies him. Salvation is always by faith.

God cannot be unfaithful.

God works His plan through man’s actions whether they are righteous or sinful.

The story of Abram marks the beginning of God’s specific plan of redemption.

In its most stunning rebellion yet, Israel rejects its redemption.

The flood is over but sin remains, so the only solution is to provide for its death.

God’s promise to never again flood the world points to the gospel.
