The first words of the Bible are the most powerful and frustrating words in the whole book. They give you a lesson in faith that will sustain you as you journey through the whole Bible.

Genesis gives us the foundation to a lot of questions of existence: creation, the human race, sin.  This week, we are looking at the hidden statements of fact we find in the Bible and diving deeper into the implications of those statements.

I love the fact that the Bible tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.  If someone wrote the story of my life, I would want some editing – don’t tell them the time I completely humiliated myself or the time when I lost my temper or lied. But that's not so in the Bible.

God is many things, as the Bible does and continues to communicate to humanity. However, one great place to begin the journey of discovering God’s nature is with three words that theologians have coined and used to describe aspects of God’s abilities, and nature. These words are Omnipotent, Omniscient & Omnipresent.

Have you noticed how supernatural the lives of the people in Genesis are? The Lord speaks to them over and over again, they have angels visiting them, they have dreams while sleeping on a stone, they wrestle with God Himself and they are guided by the Most High on a daily basis. Their supernatural encounters were boringly natural.  

You could preach a thousand messages on this man. This guy is the ultimate over-comer; he keeps going in the midst of the most unfair and unjust circumstances.

Some people are scared of studying the Bible just in case they find a scripture that confuses them or perhaps even a scripture that they disagree with. The Bible is strong enough to stand up against any argument or study that you put to it.
