Greetings to you all!
My appologies for the absence of posts over the last few weeks. I had originally intended to post Chapter 17 last week after we completed the chapter, but I was unexpectedly homebound at the last minute (sick kid). Thankfully, Paul stepped in and was able to finish the lesson with no advanced preparation (Thanks, Paul!!). As you may know, Paul has decided to invest his skills in another class over the summer, giving Robert Black a break for awhile, so next week will be his last week with us. Then you'll be stuck with me!!! (insert evil laughter here) Anyway, in all seriousness, we do want to wish Paul well and thank him for his investment in our class this year....THANKS PAUL!!! YOU WILL BE MISSED!!!!
Now on to the outlines. 4/22 & 4/29 we studied Genesis Chapter 17, which dealt with the formal covenant made between God and Abraham, and with it the observance of circumcision. Then, today, we studied Genesis Chapter 18 where we see the Lord and two companions stopping by Abraham's tent for a visit on their way to judge (and eventually destroy) Sodom & Gomorrah. We see in both of these chapters (and as a theme thus far throughout Genesis if you have been keeping track) how God meets man where he is and how God demonstrates his patience, grace, and justice, despite man's shortcomings. Tune in next week as the saga continues!
