00:00:00.170 --> 00:00:04.030
Welcome to One Minute Through the Bible. In today's

00:00:04.030 --> 00:00:07.929
episode, episode six, we will discuss what I

00:00:07.929 --> 00:00:11.669
believe is the main idea of the Book of Genesis,

00:00:12.330 --> 00:00:15.589
or the purpose for the Book of Genesis. Now,

00:00:15.589 --> 00:00:18.469
this is my purpose statement. Now, you can come

00:00:18.469 --> 00:00:20.550
up with your own purpose for the Book of Genesis,

00:00:20.550 --> 00:00:22.929
and I suggest you do that. And I suggest you

00:00:22.929 --> 00:00:26.070
do that with other biblical books. Now, I believe

00:00:26.070 --> 00:00:30.339
the main idea of the Book of Genesis is to convey

00:00:30.339 --> 00:00:35.979
a message to believers across all ages that hinges

00:00:35.979 --> 00:00:41.060
on this idea that a right relationship with God

00:00:41.060 --> 00:00:48.039
involves family not by blood but through grace

00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:54.820
by faith. So what do I mean by that? I believe

00:00:54.820 --> 00:00:58.439
that the book of Genesis especially in it's later

00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:03.460
chapters with the message of a covenant family

00:01:03.460 --> 00:01:08.040
is a model for what God is building throughout

00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:11.879
eternity that is a right relationship with God

00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.700
involves family not my blood but by grace through

00:01:15.700 --> 00:01:19.200
faith and the New Testament supports this idea

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:25.099
in Mark chapter 3 verse 33 when Jesus While he

00:01:25.099 --> 00:01:28.579
was speaking, he was being interrupted and he

00:01:28.579 --> 00:01:33.760
wanted everyone to know just who was his brother,

00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.519
sister, and mother. And it was those who do the

00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:42.260
will of the Father. And also in the Sermon on

00:01:42.260 --> 00:01:45.980
the Mount, Jesus introduced the concept of God

00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:50.920
as Father. Therefore, once you read the book

00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:55.560
of Genesis and take it in it's totality you will

00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:58.819
see especially in the later chapters that God

00:01:58.819 --> 00:02:01.739
was building a model and he wanted to convey

00:02:01.739 --> 00:02:06.299
the idea that a right relationship with God involves

00:02:06.299 --> 00:02:10.919
family not by blood but through grace by faith

00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:15.199
