Genesis 9:1 - 9:7

GenesisSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg discusses the biblical account of Genesis 9 and how it relates to various topics such as the end times, the commandments given to Noah and his sons, and the role of government in punishing criminals. Gregg highlights how the story of Noah and the flood symbolizes universal judgments to come, and how the delay of Christ's Second Coming is due to God's desire to give people time to repent. He also examines the Jerusalem Council's decision on whether Gentile Christians should adhere to Jewish laws and customs, and the responsibility of governments in implementing justice. Throughout the discourse, Gregg provides insightful interpretations of biblical passages and their applications in contemporary times.
