Genesis

Providence and Sin: I want us to consider the Display of God’s Providence and Sovereignty in the lives of His Servants during unexplained times of suffering, and I would like to start off by asking how the providence of God works in the context of man’s sin. Does providence even come into play? Are the two in any way influential upon one another? Or is there no way whatsoever in which the pure and holy providence of a righteous God can be in direct contact with the low, mean and vile sin of man? Now before we even do that, let us first consider what these two big words mean.

Genesis

We have seen thus far, that the Sabbath Institution or Lord’s Day is a creation ordinance and that from the very beginning, right at the outset of creation, God set aside one day in seven for worship and rest. This, God instituted, for all people everywhere and at all times to observe. And we have also learnt that the first purpose of the Sabbath is given that we may rest.

After six days of forming and filling, God comes to the seventh day upon which He rests. And we need to see that this seventh day was significantly different from all the others that had gone before.

Genesis

The basic presupposition of this passage before us teaches that God will at times strike his servants to demonstrate unto them His great love for them, and so to strip them of all that hinders His work in their lives. Or to use the words of John Piper when he was here in 2010 at the Resolution Conference: “God will break your bones if needs be, to minister to your heart.”
Genesis
on September 22, 2019
We come now to the third part of what God does on day 6 and we see that God gives a particular command to the man and the woman. And we find in this particular command to the man and the woman the first divine revelation of God to the human race.
