Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Reading Through the Bible Together, we cover Genesis 4–7, where the fall turns into fallout and sin begins to spread like wildfire. We watch worship turn into self-righteousness, jealousy turn into murder, and guilt turn into defiance as Cain rejects God’s warning that “sin is crouching at the door” (Gen. 4:7). We trace the grim rhythm of Genesis 5, where death keeps marching through every generation, yet God gives signs that His promise is still alive. And we face the sobering diagnosis of Genesis 6: the human heart left to itself does not drift toward God, but toward evil (Gen. 6:5). Yet even as judgment approaches, grace breaks through: “Noah found favor with the LORD” (Gen. 6:8). God provides a refuge, brings Noah into it, and saves through the ark, preserving His promise and pointing us forward to Jesus Christ, the true refuge from judgment. We end with a Gospel proclamation: in Christ there is mercy, there is safety, and your sins are forgiven through faith in Him.Support the show
