Genesis 7:6-24: Water, Water Everywhere

The LORD sent the flood He had promised when Noah was six hundred years old. Waters came from below and from above, and the LORD sent rain for forty days and forty nights to cover the whole earth even above the highest mountains. All flesh on the dry land died, just as the LORD had spoken. Yet, also just as the LORD had spoken, Noah and all those with him on the ark were rescued and sustained the whole time the waters prevailed upon the earth.  Rev. John Bussman, pastor at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Cullman, AL, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 7:6-24.  To learn more about St. Paul's in Cullman, visit stpaulscullman.com. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God’s entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy’s head.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: [email protected]
