  As
• 0:25
  my
• 0:25
  friend
• 0:26
  Laura
• 0:26
  says,
• 0:27
  God's
• 0:27
  word
• 0:27
  is
• 0:27
  the
• 0:27
  only
• 0:28
  book
• 0:28
  that
• 0:28
  gets
• 0:29
  more
• 0:29
  interesting
• 0:29
  every
• 0:30
  time
• 0:30
  you
• 0:30
  read
• 0:30
  it.
• 0:31
  I've
• 0:31
  selected
• 0:31
  a
• 0:31
  few
• 0:32
  passages
• 0:32
  to
• 0:32
  read
• 0:32
  over
• 0:33
  you
• 0:33
  today,
• 0:34
  beginning
• 0:34
  with
• 0:34
  Genesis
• 0:35
  chapter
• 0:35
  one,
• 0:35
  verse
• 0:36
  26.
• 0:37
  Then
• 0:37
  God
• 0:37
  said,
• 0:38
  let
• 0:38
  us
• 0:39
  make
• 0:39
  man
• 0:39
  in
• 0:39
  our
• 0:39
  image
• 0:40
  after
• 0:41
  our
• 0:41
  likeness,
• 0:41
  and
• 0:42
  let
• 0:42
  them
• 0:42
  have
• 0:42
  dominion
• 0:43
  over
• 0:43
  the
• 0:43
  fish
• 0:43
  of
• 0:43
  the
• 0:44
  sea
• 0:44
  and
• 0:44
  over
• 0:45
  the
• 0:45
  birds
• 0:45
  of
• 0:45
  the
• 0:45
  heavens,
• 0:46
  and
• 0:46
  over
• 0:47
  the
• 0:47
  livestock,
• 0:48
  and
• 0:48
  over
• 0:48
  all
• 0:48
  the
• 0:49
  earth,
• 0:49
  and
• 0:50
  over
• 0:50
  every
• 0:50
  creeping
• 0:51
  thing
• 0:51
  that
• 0:51
  creeps
• 0:52
  on
• 0:52
  the
• 0:52
  earth.
• 0:53
  So
• 0:53
  God
• 0:53
  created
• 0:54
  man
• 0:54
  in
• 0:54
  his
• 0:54
  own
• 0:54
  image,
• 0:55
  in
• 0:55
  the
• 0:55
  image
• 0:56
  of
• 0:56
  God,
• 0:56
  he
• 0:56
  created
• 0:57
  them,
• 0:57
  male
• 0:58
  and
• 0:58
  female.
• 0:58
  He
• 0:59
  created
• 0:59
  him.
• 1:00
  and
• 1:00
  God
• 1:00
  bless
• 1:00
  them.
• 1:01
  And
• 1:01
  God
• 1:01
  said
• 1:02
  to
• 1:02
  them,
• 1:02
  be
• 1:02
  fruitful
• 1:03
  and
• 1:03
  multiply
• 1:04
  and
• 1:04
  fill
• 1:05
  the
• 1:05
  earth
• 1:05
  and
• 1:05
  subdue
• 1:06
  it.
• 1:06
  And
• 1:06
  have
• 1:07
  dominion
• 1:07
  over
• 1:07
  the
• 1:07
  fish
• 1:08
  of
• 1:08
  the
• 1:08
  sea
• 1:09
  and
• 1:09
  over
• 1:09
  the
• 1:09
  birds
• 1:09
  of
• 1:10
  the
• 1:10
  heavens,
• 1:10
  and
• 1:10
  over
• 1:11
  every
• 1:11
  living
• 1:11
  thing
• 1:12
  that
• 1:12
  moves
• 1:12
  on
• 1:12
  the
• 1:12
  earth.
• 1:13
  And
• 1:13
  it
• 1:13
  continues.
• 1:14
  And
• 1:15
  God
• 1:15
  saw
• 1:15
  everything
• 1:15
  that
• 1:16
  he
• 1:16
  had
• 1:16
  made.
• 1:16
  And
• 1:16
  behold,
• 1:17
  it
• 1:17
  was
• 1:17
  very
• 1:17
  good.
• 1:18
  And
• 1:18
  there
• 1:18
  was
• 1:19
  evening
• 1:19
  and
• 1:19
  there
• 1:19
  was
• 1:20
  morning
• 1:20
  the
• 1:20
  sixth
• 1:20
  day,
• 1:21
  thus
• 1:22
  the
• 1:22
  heavens
• 1:22
  and
• 1:22
  the
• 1:22
  earth
• 1:23
  were
• 1:23
  finished
• 1:23
  and
• 1:23
  all
• 1:24
  the
• 1:24
  host
• 1:24
  of
• 1:24
  them.
• 1:25
  And
• 1:25
  on
• 1:25
  the
• 1:25
  seventh
• 1:25
  day,
• 1:26
  God
• 1:26
  finished
• 1:27
  his
• 1:27
  work
• 1:27
  that
• 1:27
  he
• 1:27
  had
• 1:28
  done,
• 1:28
  and
• 1:29
  he
• 1:29
  rested
• 1:29
  on
• 1:29
  the
• 1:30
  seventh
• 1:30
  day
• 1:30
  from
• 1:30
  all
• 1:31
  his
• 1:31
  work
• 1:31
  that
• 1:31
  he
• 1:31
  had
• 1:31
  done.
• 1:32
  So
• 1:32
  God
• 1:33
  blessed
• 1:33
  the
• 1:33
  seventh
• 1:34
  day
• 1:34
  and
• 1:34
  made
• 1:34
  it
• 1:35
  holy
• 1:35
  because
• 1:36
  on
• 1:36
  it,
• 1:36
  God
• 1:37
  rested
• 1:37
  from
• 1:38
  all
• 1:38
  his
• 1:38
  work
• 1:38
  that
• 1:39
  he
• 1:39
  had
• 1:39
  done
• 1:39
  in
• 1:39
  creation.
• 1:40
  Let's
• 1:40
  go
• 1:41
  ahead
• 1:41
  to
• 1:41
  chapter
• 1:41
  two,
• 1:42
  verse
• 1:42
  18.
• 1:43
  Then
• 1:43
  the
• 1:43
  Lord
• 1:43
  God
• 1:44
  said,
• 1:45
  it
• 1:45
  is
• 1:45
  not
• 1:45
  good
• 1:45
  that
• 1:46
  the
• 1:46
  man
• 1:46
  should
• 1:46
  be
• 1:46
  alone.
• 1:47
  I
• 1:47
  will
• 1:47
  make
• 1:48
  a
• 1:48
  helper
• 1:48
  fit
• 1:48
  for
• 1:48
  him.
• 1:49
  Now
• 1:49
  out
• 1:49
  of
• 1:49
  the
• 1:50
  ground,
• 1:50
  the
• 1:50
  Lord
• 1:50
  God
• 1:51
  had
• 1:51
  formed
• 1:51
  every
• 1:52
  beast
• 1:52
  of
• 1:52
  the
• 1:52
  field
• 1:53
  and
• 1:53
  every
• 1:53
  bird
• 1:54
  of
• 1:54
  the
• 1:54
  heavens
• 1:54
  and
• 1:55
  brought
• 1:55
  them
• 1:55
  to
• 1:55
  the
• 1:55
  man
• 1:56
  to
• 1:56
  see
• 1:56
  what
• 1:56
  he
• 1:56
  would
• 1:56
  call
• 1:57
  them,
• 1:57
  and
• 1:57
  whatever
• 1:58
  the
• 1:58
  man
• 1:58
  called
• 1:58
  every
• 1:59
  living
• 1:59
  creature
• 2:00
  that
• 2:00
  was
• 2:00
  its
• 2:00
  name.
• 2:01
  The
• 2:01
  man
• 2:02
  gave
• 2:02
  names
• 2:02
  to
• 2:02
  all
• 2:03
  livestock,
• 2:03
  to
• 2:04
  the
• 2:04
  birds
• 2:04
  of
• 2:04
  the
• 2:04
  heavens,
• 2:05
  and
• 2:05
  to
• 2:05
  every
• 2:05
  beast
• 2:06
  of
• 2:06
  the
• 2:06
  field.
• 2:07
  But
• 2:07
  for
• 2:07
  Adam,
• 2:08
  there
• 2:08
  was
• 2:08
  not
• 2:08
  found
• 2:09
  a
• 2:09
  helper
• 2:09
  fit
• 2:09
  for
• 2:09
  him.
• 2:10
  So
• 2:10
  the
• 2:10
  Lord
• 2:11
  caused
• 2:11
  a
• 2:11
  deep
• 2:11
  sleep
• 2:12
  to
• 2:12
  fall
• 2:12
  upon
• 2:12
  the
• 2:12
  man,
• 2:13
  and
• 2:13
  while
• 2:14
  he
• 2:14
  slept,
• 2:14
  took
• 2:15
  one
• 2:15
  of
• 2:15
  his
• 2:15
  ribs
• 2:16
  and
• 2:16
  closed
• 2:17
  up
• 2:17
  its
• 2:17
  place
• 2:17
  with
• 2:18
  flesh
• 2:18
  and
• 2:19
  the
• 2:19
  rib
• 2:19
  that
• 2:19
  the
• 2:19
  Lord
• 2:20
  God
• 2:20
  had
• 2:20
  taken
• 2:21
  from
• 2:21
  the
• 2:21
  man.
• 2:22
  He
• 2:22
  made
• 2:22
  into
• 2:22
  a
• 2:22
  woman
• 2:23
  and
• 2:23
  brought
• 2:23
  her
• 2:23
  to
• 2:23
  the
• 2:23
  man.
• 2:24
  Then
• 2:24
  the
• 2:24
  man
• 2:25
  said
• 2:25
  this
• 2:26
  at
• 2:26
  last
• 2:27
  is
• 2:27
  bone
• 2:27
  of
• 2:27
  my
• 2:27
  bones
• 2:28
  and
• 2:28
  flesh
• 2:28
  of
• 2:28
  my
• 2:29
  flesh.
• 2:29
  She
• 2:30
  shall
• 2:30
  be
• 2:30
  called
• 2:30
  woman
• 2:31
  because
• 2:31
  she
• 2:31
  was
• 2:32
  taken
• 2:32
  out
• 2:32
  of
• 2:32
  man.
• 2:33
  Therefore,
• 2:34
  a
• 2:34
  man
• 2:34
  shall
• 2:35
  leave
• 2:35
  his
• 2:35
  father
• 2:36
  and
• 2:36
  his
• 2:36
  mother
• 2:36
  and
• 2:36
  hold
• 2:37
  fast,
• 2:37
  his
• 2:37
  wife,
• 2:38
  and
• 2:38
  they
• 2:39
  shall
• 2:39
  become
• 2:39
  one
• 2:39
  flesh.
• 2:40
  And
• 2:41
  the
• 2:41
  man
• 2:41
  and
• 2:41
  his
• 2:41
  wife
• 2:41
  were
• 2:42
  both
• 2:42
  naked
• 2:42
  and
• 2:42
  were
• 2:42
  not
• 2:43
  ashamed.
• 2:44
  Let's
• 2:44
  talk
• 2:44
  about
• 2:45
  the
• 2:45
  convictions
• 2:45
  we
• 2:46
  can
• 2:46
  derive
• 2:46
  from
• 2:46
  these
• 2:47
  chapters
• 2:47
  of
• 2:47
  scripture.
• 2:48
  First
• 2:48
  praise
• 2:49
  the
• 2:49
  Lord
• 2:49
  for
• 2:50
  commentaries
• 2:51
  because
• 2:51
  I
• 2:51
  don't
• 2:51
  know
• 2:52
  Hebrew
• 2:52
  or
• 2:52
  Greek,
• 2:53
  but
• 2:53
  studying
• 2:53
  my
• 2:53
  Moody
• 2:54
  commentary,
• 2:54
  which
• 2:55
  is
• 2:55
  one
• 2:55
  of
• 2:55
  my
• 2:55
  favorites
• 2:56
  that
• 2:56
  I'll
• 2:56
  link
• 2:56
  in
• 2:56
  the
• 2:56
  show
• 2:56
  notes
• 2:57
  for
• 2:57
  you.
• 2:57
  I
• 2:58
  came
• 2:58
  across
• 2:58
  a
• 2:58
  really
• 2:59
  fascinating
• 2:59
  discovery
• 3:00
  whenever
• 3:00
  I
• 3:01
  would
• 3:01
  read
• 3:01
  this
• 3:01
  before.
• 3:02
  I
• 3:02
  felt
• 3:02
  like,
• 3:03
  is
• 3:03
  there
• 3:03
  a
• 3:03
  little
• 3:03
  repetition
• 3:04
  between
• 3:04
  Genesis
• 3:05
  one
• 3:05
  and
• 3:05
  Genesis
• 3:06
  two?
• 3:06
  It
• 3:06
  seems
• 3:07
  like
• 3:07
  slightly
• 3:08
  different
• 3:08
  versions.
• 3:09
  But
• 3:09
  after
• 3:09
  digging
• 3:10
  in,
• 3:10
  I
• 3:10
  understand
• 3:10
  a
• 3:11
  little
• 3:11
  bit
• 3:11
  more
• 3:11
  about
• 3:11
  what's
• 3:12
  going
• 3:12
  on
• 3:12
  here
• 3:13
  in
• 3:13
  Genesis
• 3:13
  one,
• 3:14
  the
• 3:14
  name
• 3:14
  for
• 3:14
  God
• 3:14
  is
• 3:15
  Elohim,
• 3:16
  but
• 3:16
  then
• 3:16
  in
• 3:16
  Genesis
• 3:17
  two,
• 3:17
  four,
• 3:18
  it
• 3:18
  switches
• 3:18
  over
• 3:19
  to
• 3:19
  Yahweh
• 3:19
  Elohim.
• 3:20
  This
• 3:20
  reflects
• 3:21
  two
• 3:21
  crucial
• 3:22
  parts
• 3:22
  about
• 3:22
  the
• 3:22
  character
• 3:23
  of
• 3:23
  God.
• 3:23
  Elohim
• 3:24
  in
• 3:24
  Chapter
• 3:24
  one
• 3:25
  represents
• 3:26
  the
• 3:26
  almighty
• 3:26
  creator
• 3:27
  of
• 3:27
  the
• 3:27
  universe.
• 3:28
  He
• 3:28
  is
• 3:29
  all
• 3:29
  powerful,
• 3:30
  but
• 3:30
  the
• 3:30
  name
• 3:31
  of
• 3:31
  God
• 3:31
  used
• 3:31
  in
• 3:31
  chapter
• 3:32
  two,
• 3:32
  Yahweh,
• 3:33
  Elohim,
• 3:34
  is
• 3:34
  his
• 3:34
  relational
• 3:35
  covenant
• 3:35
  name.
• 3:36
  It
• 3:36
  makes
• 3:36
  sense
• 3:37
  when
• 3:37
  it's
• 3:37
  focusing
• 3:38
  on
• 3:38
  God's
• 3:38
  power
• 3:38
  and
• 3:38
  glory
• 3:39
  and
• 3:39
  majesty
• 3:40
  and
• 3:40
  creating
• 3:40
  the
• 3:40
  world,
• 3:41
  he
• 3:41
  led
• 3:41
  his
• 3:42
  name
• 3:42
  Elohim
• 3:42
  to
• 3:42
  be
• 3:43
  used.
• 3:43
  But
• 3:43
  then
• 3:44
  in
• 3:44
  chapters
• 3:44
  two
• 3:44
  and
• 3:44
  three,
• 3:45
  when
• 3:45
  we
• 3:45
  zoom
• 3:45
  in
• 3:46
  on
• 3:46
  the
• 3:46
  God
• 3:46
  that
• 3:47
  walks
• 3:47
  with
• 3:47
  his
• 3:47
  creation
• 3:48
  in
• 3:48
  the
• 3:48
  garden,
• 3:48
  that's
• 3:49
  when
• 3:49
  we
• 3:49
  hear
• 3:49
  the
• 3:50
  relational
• 3:50
  Yahweh
• 3:51
  Elohim
• 3:51
  name.
• 3:52
  As
• 3:52
  believers,
• 3:53
  we
• 3:53
  need
• 3:53
  to
• 3:53
  hold
• 3:53
  both
• 3:54
  of
• 3:54
  those
• 3:54
  names
• 3:54
  of
• 3:54
  God
• 3:55
  And
• 3:55
  we
• 3:55
  can
• 3:56
  teach
• 3:56
  our
• 3:56
  kids
• 3:57
  that
• 3:57
  God
• 3:57
  is
• 3:57
  mighty,
• 3:58
  but
• 3:58
  he
• 3:58
  also
• 3:59
  is
• 3:59
  near.
• 3:59
  Did
• 4:00
  you
• 4:00
  notice
• 4:00
  when
• 4:00
  it
• 4:01
  says,
• 4:01
  let
• 4:01
  us
• 4:01
  make
• 4:02
  man
• 4:02
  in
• 4:02
  our
• 4:02
  own
• 4:02
  image?
• 4:03
  This
• 4:04
  is
• 4:04
  the
• 4:04
  first
• 4:04
  mention
• 4:04
  of
• 4:04
  the
• 4:05
  Trinity.
• 4:05
  Our
• 4:06
  God
• 4:06
  is
• 4:06
  a
• 4:06
  God
• 4:06
  that
• 4:07
  experiences
• 4:07
  perfect
• 4:08
  fellowship
• 4:08
  in
• 4:08
  union,
• 4:09
  and
• 4:09
  we
• 4:09
  were
• 4:09
  created
• 4:10
  to
• 4:10
  reflect
• 4:10
  that
• 4:11
  it's
• 4:11
  part
• 4:12
  of
• 4:12
  being
• 4:12
  made
• 4:12
  in
• 4:12
  his
• 4:13
  image
• 4:13
  that
• 4:13
  it's
• 4:14
  not
• 4:14
  good
• 4:14
  for
• 4:14
  us
• 4:14
  to
• 4:14
  be
• 4:15
  alone
• 4:15
  either,
• 4:16
  and
• 4:16
  our
• 4:16
  creation
• 4:17
  of
• 4:17
  being
• 4:17
  male
• 4:17
  and
• 4:17
  female.
• 4:18
  This
• 4:18
  is
• 4:18
  a
• 4:19
  truly
• 4:19
  important
• 4:19
  part
• 4:20
  of
• 4:20
  our
• 4:20
  identity,
• 4:21
  and
• 4:21
  both
• 4:21
  genders
• 4:22
  reflect
• 4:23
  different
• 4:23
  aspects
• 4:24
  of
• 4:24
  the
• 4:24
  glory
• 4:24
  of
• 4:25
  God.
• 4:25
  When
• 4:25
  we
• 4:26
  learn
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  embrace
• 4:26
  those
• 4:27
  realities
• 4:27
  and
• 4:28
  appreciate
• 4:28
  how
• 4:28
  we
• 4:28
  compliment
• 4:29
  one
• 4:29
  another,
• 4:30
  we're
• 4:30
  able
• 4:30
  to
• 4:30
  reflect
• 4:31
  God
• 4:31
  in
• 4:31
  a
• 4:31
  really
• 4:32
  beautiful
• 4:32
  way.
• 4:33
  In
• 4:33
  Genesis
• 4:34
  two,
• 4:34
  it
• 4:34
  mentions
• 4:34
  God
• 4:35
  finishing
• 4:35
  his
• 4:35
  work
• 4:36
  three
• 4:36
  times
• 4:36
  in
• 4:36
  two
• 4:37
  verses.
• 4:37
  Did
• 4:38
  you
• 4:38
  notice
• 4:38
  it?
• 4:39
  God
• 4:39
  finished
• 4:39
  his
• 4:40
  work.
• 4:40
  He
• 4:41
  finished
• 4:41
  the
• 4:41
  work
• 4:41
  that
• 4:42
  he
• 4:42
  had
• 4:42
  done,
• 4:43
  and
• 4:43
  he
• 4:43
  rested
• 4:43
  from
• 4:44
  all
• 4:44
  the
• 4:44
  work
• 4:44
  he
• 4:44
  had
• 4:44
  done
• 4:44
  in
• 4:45
  creation.
• 4:45
  I
• 4:46
  have
• 4:46
  written
• 4:46
  in
• 4:46
  my
• 4:46
  Bible,
• 4:47
  Lord,
• 4:47
  help
• 4:48
  me
• 4:48
  to
• 4:48
  know
• 4:48
  what
• 4:48
  work
• 4:49
  you've
• 4:49
  called
• 4:49
  me
• 4:49
  to
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  when
• 4:50
  it
• 4:50
  is
• 4:51
  finished.
• 4:52
  As
• 4:52
  a
• 4:52
  mom,
• 4:52
  my
• 4:53
  to-do
• 4:53
  list
• 4:53
  can
• 4:53
  seem
• 4:54
  absolutely
• 4:54
  overwhelming,
• 4:55
  but
• 4:55
  it's
• 4:55
  nothing
• 4:56
  compared
• 4:56
  to
• 4:56
  what
• 4:56
  God
• 4:57
  did
• 4:57
  at
• 4:57
  Creation.
• 4:58
  if
• 4:58
  he
• 4:58
  can
• 4:58
  rest
• 4:59
  from
• 4:59
  his
• 4:59
  to-do
• 5:00
  list,
• 5:00
  then
• 5:00
  he
• 5:00
  can
• 5:00
  certainly
• 5:01
  guide
• 5:01
  me
• 5:01
  on
• 5:02
  when
• 5:02
  and
• 5:02
  where
• 5:02
  my
• 5:03
  stopping
• 5:03
  point
• 5:03
  is.
• 5:04
  When
• 5:04
  I
• 5:04
  read
• 5:04
  the
• 5:04
  verses
• 5:05
  in
• 5:05
  chapter
• 5:05
  two
• 5:05
  about
• 5:06
  God
• 5:06
  forming
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  animals
• 5:07
  in
• 5:07
  front
• 5:07
  of
• 5:07
  Adam,
• 5:08
  it
• 5:08
  makes
• 5:08
  me
• 5:08
  wanna
• 5:09
  get
• 5:09
  Play-Doh
• 5:09
  out
• 5:09
  with
• 5:09
  my
• 5:10
  kids
• 5:10
  and
• 5:10
  reenact
• 5:10
  it.
• 5:11
  we
• 5:11
  hear
• 5:11
  that
• 5:12
  for
• 5:12
  Adam,
• 5:12
  the
• 5:12
  right
• 5:13
  fit
• 5:13
  was
• 5:13
  not
• 5:13
  found.
• 5:14
  I've
• 5:14
  heard
• 5:14
  this
• 5:15
  preached
• 5:15
  on
• 5:15
  so
• 5:15
  many
• 5:16
  times.
• 5:16
  But
• 5:16
  nothing
• 5:17
  has
• 5:17
  explained
• 5:17
  this,
• 5:18
  as
• 5:18
  well
• 5:18
  as
• 5:19
  learning
• 5:19
  that
• 5:19
  the
• 5:19
  Hebrew
• 5:20
  word
• 5:20
  for
• 5:21
  rib
• 5:21
  is
• 5:21
  actually
• 5:22
  side.
• 5:23
  There
• 5:23
  are
• 5:23
  eight
• 5:23
  Hebrew
• 5:24
  words
• 5:24
  for
• 5:24
  side,
• 5:25
  but
• 5:25
  the
• 5:25
  word
• 5:25
  that
• 5:26
  God
• 5:26
  led
• 5:26
  Moses
• 5:27
  to
• 5:27
  write
• 5:27
  here
• 5:28
  is
• 5:28
  the
• 5:28
  word
• 5:29
  that
• 5:29
  is
• 5:29
  used
• 5:30
  in
• 5:30
  the
• 5:30
  tabernacle
• 5:31
  construction,
• 5:32
  and
• 5:32
  for
• 5:32
  the
• 5:32
  arc
• 5:33
  of
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  covenant
• 5:33
  and
• 5:34
  for
• 5:34
  all
• 5:34
  the
• 5:34
  furnishings
• 5:35
  inside
• 5:35
  of
• 5:35
  the
• 5:35
  tabernacle.
• 5:37
  It
• 5:37
  denotes
• 5:37
  worship
• 5:38
  and
• 5:38
  necessity.
• 5:39
  What
• 5:39
  can
• 5:40
  you
• 5:40
  build
• 5:40
  sides?
• 5:41
  As
• 5:42
  women,
• 5:42
  we
• 5:42
  are
• 5:42
  pivotal
• 5:43
  and
• 5:43
  we're
• 5:43
  to
• 5:43
  be
• 5:43
  strong
• 5:44
  supports.
• 5:45
  You
• 5:45
  might
• 5:45
  have
• 5:45
  been
• 5:46
  insulted
• 5:46
  before
• 5:47
  by
• 5:47
  the
• 5:47
  word
• 5:47
  helper,
• 5:48
  but
• 5:48
  did
• 5:48
  you
• 5:48
  know
• 5:49
  that
• 5:49
  of
• 5:49
  the
• 5:49
  21
• 5:50
  times
• 5:50
  that
• 5:50
  word
• 5:51
  is
• 5:51
  used
• 5:51
  in
• 5:51
  scripture?
• 5:52
  16
• 5:53
  of
• 5:53
  them
• 5:53
  is
• 5:53
  referring
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  God
• 5:54
  himself,
• 5:55
  saying
• 5:55
  how
• 5:55
  he
• 5:55
  helps
• 5:56
  us.
• 5:56
  Shirley,
• 5:57
  this
• 5:57
  is
• 5:57
  no
• 5:57
  second
• 5:58
  class
• 5:58
  assignment.
• 5:59
  We
• 5:59
  have
• 5:59
  an
• 5:59
  amazing
• 6:00
  opportunity
• 6:01
  to
• 6:01
  help
• 6:01
  our
• 6:01
  husbands
• 6:02
  become
• 6:02
  men.
• 6:02
  They
• 6:03
  could
• 6:03
  never
• 6:03
  be
• 6:03
  without
• 6:04
  us.
• 6:04
  We
• 6:04
  get
• 6:04
  to
• 6:04
  join
• 6:05
  in
• 6:05
  worshiping
• 6:05
  our
• 6:06
  creator
• 6:06
  and
• 6:06
  working
• 6:06
  for
• 6:07
  his
• 6:07
  glory
• 6:07
  together
• 6:08
  and
• 6:08
  using
• 6:08
  the
• 6:08
  specific
• 6:09
  Hebrew
• 6:09
  word
• 6:09
  for
• 6:10
  side
• 6:10
  that
• 6:10
  is
• 6:10
  used
• 6:11
  for
• 6:11
  worshiping
• 6:12
  confirms
• 6:12
  that
• 6:12
  this
• 6:13
  is
• 6:13
  a
• 6:13
  crucial
• 6:13
  part
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  our
• 6:14
  job.
• 6:14
  Next,
• 6:15
  we
• 6:15
  see
• 6:15
  the
• 6:15
  first
• 6:16
  marriage
• 6:16
  ceremony
• 6:17
  that
• 6:17
  God
• 6:17
  holds
• 6:17
  in
• 6:17
  the
• 6:17
  garden
• 6:18
  when
• 6:18
  he
• 6:18
  joins
• 6:19
  one
• 6:19
  man
• 6:19
  and
• 6:19
  one
• 6:20
  woman.
• 6:20
  This
• 6:21
  is
• 6:21
  the
• 6:21
  marital
• 6:21
  relationship
• 6:22
  that
• 6:22
  is
• 6:22
  always
• 6:23
  elevated
• 6:23
  as
• 6:23
  holy
• 6:24
  in
• 6:24
  scripture
• 6:25
  from
• 6:25
  Genesis
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  Revelation,
• 6:27
  and
• 6:27
  we
• 6:27
  know
• 6:27
  Jesus
• 6:28
  affirms
• 6:28
  it
• 6:28
  in
• 6:28
  Matthew
• 6:29
  19.
• 6:30
  If
• 6:30
  you've
• 6:30
  been
• 6:30
  a
• 6:30
  Christian
• 6:31
  for
• 6:31
  even
• 6:31
  a
• 6:31
  short
• 6:31
  amount
• 6:31
  of
• 6:32
  time,
• 6:32
  it
• 6:32
  might
• 6:33
  be
• 6:33
  easy
• 6:33
  to
• 6:33
  brush
• 6:33
  by
• 6:34
  some
• 6:34
  of
• 6:34
  these
• 6:34
  doctrines.
• 6:35
  But
• 6:35
  how
• 6:36
  can
• 6:36
  we
• 6:36
  tell
• 6:36
  if
• 6:36
  we
• 6:37
  really
• 6:37
  believe
• 6:38
  what
• 6:38
  we're
• 6:38
  reading
• 6:39
  in
• 6:39
  scripture
• 6:39
  and
• 6:39
  that
• 6:39
  we're
• 6:39
  living
• 6:40
  it
• 6:40
  out?
• 6:40
  Here
• 6:41
  are
• 6:41
  a
• 6:41
  couple
• 6:41
  heart
• 6:41
  checks
• 6:41
  I
• 6:42
  wrote
• 6:42
  down.
• 6:43
  I
• 6:43
  believe
• 6:43
  people

  made
• 6:44
  in
• 6:44
  the
• 6:44
  image
• 6:44
  of
• 6:44
  God.
• 6:45
  When
• 6:45
  I
• 6:45
  talk
• 6:46
  to
• 6:46
  my
• 6:46
  children,
• 6:46
  the
• 6:46
  same
• 6:47
  in
• 6:47
  front
• 6:47
  of
• 6:47
  people
• 6:48
  as
• 6:48
  I
• 6:49
  do
• 6:49
  when
• 6:49
  no
• 6:49
  one's
• 6:49
  around.
• 6:50
  It's
• 6:50
  when
• 6:50
  I
• 6:51
  give
• 6:51
  as
• 6:51
  much
• 6:51
  attention
• 6:52
  and
• 6:52
  honor
• 6:52
  to
• 6:52
  people
• 6:53
  with
• 6:53
  special
• 6:53
  needs
• 6:54
  as
• 6:54
  I
• 6:54
  do
• 6:55
  to
• 6:55
  those
• 6:55
  society
• 6:56
  elevates.
• 6:57
  It's
• 6:57
  when
• 6:57
  I
• 6:58
  champion
• 6:58
  the
• 6:59
  rights
• 6:59
  of
• 6:59
  those
• 6:59
  who
• 6:59
  cannot
• 7:00
  advocate
• 7:00
  for
• 7:00
  themselves,
• 7:01
  it's
• 7:02
  when
• 7:02
  I
• 7:02
  put
• 7:02
  down
• 7:02
  my
• 7:02
  phone
• 7:03
  and
• 7:03
  look
• 7:03
  at
• 7:03
  strangers
• 7:04
  in
• 7:04
  the
• 7:04
  eye,
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  I
• 7:05
  think
• 7:05
  to
• 7:05
  pray
• 7:05
  for
• 7:06
  them.
• 7:06
  I
• 7:06
  know
• 7:06
  this
• 7:07
  is
• 7:07
  only
• 7:07
  episode
• 7:08
  one,
• 7:08
  but
• 7:09
  everyone
• 7:09
  who
• 7:09
  knows
• 7:09
  me
• 7:10
  knows.
• 7:10
  A
• 7:11
  small
• 7:11
  talk
• 7:11
  is
• 7:11
  not
• 7:12
  my
• 7:12
  thing
• 7:12
  and
• 7:13
  I
• 7:13
  have
• 7:13
  to
• 7:13
  be
• 7:13
  vulnerable
• 7:14
  about
• 7:14
  how
• 7:14
  convicting
• 7:15
  this
• 7:15
  chapter
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  scripture
• 7:16
  is.
• 7:16
  For
• 7:16
  me
• 7:16
  this
• 7:17
  is
• 7:17
  something
• 7:17
  I
• 7:17
  wrestle
• 7:18
  with.
• 7:18
  in
• 7:18
  my
• 7:18
  own
• 7:18
  home.
• 7:19
  I
• 7:19
  married
• 7:20
  the
• 7:20
  most
• 7:20
  intentional
• 7:20
  guy
• 7:21
  I
• 7:21
  could
• 7:21
  find.
• 7:21
  My
• 7:22
  husband
• 7:22
  had
• 7:22
  started
• 7:23
  a
• 7:23
  ministry
• 7:23
  at
• 7:23
  25,
• 7:24
  and
• 7:24
  when
• 7:25
  I
• 7:25
  met
• 7:25
  him,
• 7:25
  we
• 7:25
  were
• 7:25
  determined
• 7:26
  to
• 7:26
  run
• 7:26
  after
• 7:26
  Jesus
• 7:27
  together.
• 7:28
  Fast
• 7:28
  forward
• 7:28
  16
• 7:29
  years
• 7:30
  and
• 7:30
  the
• 7:30
  man
• 7:30
  I
• 7:30
  married.
• 7:31
  Is
• 7:31
  different
• 7:32
  than
• 7:32
  the
• 7:32
  one
• 7:32
  that
• 7:32
  shared
• 7:32
  the
• 7:33
  gospel
• 7:33
  with
• 7:33
  me
• 7:33
  on
• 7:33
  our
• 7:33
  honeymoon.
• 7:34
  In
• 7:35
  many
• 7:35
  ways,
• 7:35
  he's
• 7:35
  been
• 7:35
  robbed
• 7:36
  by
• 7:36
  a
• 7:36
  disease
• 7:37
  And
• 7:37
  our
• 7:37
  family
• 7:38
  is
• 7:38
  different
• 7:38
  than
• 7:38
  I
• 7:39
  anticipated.
• 7:40
  I
• 7:40
  think
• 7:40
  of
• 7:40
  a
• 7:40
  quote
• 7:40
  from
• 7:41
  a
• 7:41
  trusted
• 7:41
  with
• 7:41
  a
• 7:41
  child's
• 7:42
  heart.
• 7:42
  Betsy
• 7:43
  says,
• 7:43
  love
• 7:44
  is
• 7:44
  how
• 7:44
  we
• 7:44
  treat
• 7:45
  those
• 7:45
  who
• 7:45
  can
• 7:45
  do
• 7:45
  nothing
• 7:46
  in
• 7:46
  return
• 7:46
  for
• 7:46
  us,
• 7:47
  I
• 7:47
  care
• 7:47
  for
• 7:48
  people
• 7:48
  just
• 7:48
  because
• 7:48
  of
• 7:49
  what
• 7:49
  all
• 7:49
  got
• 7:49
  in
• 7:49
  return
• 7:50
  or
• 7:50
  because
• 7:50
  they're
• 7:50
  made
• 7:51
  in
• 7:51
  the
• 7:51
  image
• 7:51
  of
• 7:51
  God?
• 7:52
  As
• 7:52
  I
• 7:52
  told
• 7:53
  you,
• 7:53
  I
• 7:53
  need
• 7:53
  Jesus
• 7:54
  just
• 7:54
  as
• 7:54
  much
• 7:54
  as
• 7:55
  anyone
• 7:55
  listening
• 7:55
  could.
• 7:56
  If
• 7:56
  I
• 7:56
  were
• 7:57
  to
• 7:57
  meditate
• 7:57
  just
• 7:57
  on
• 7:58
  the
• 7:58
  partnership
• 7:58
  that
• 7:58
  I
• 7:58
  expected
• 7:59
  to
• 7:59
  have
• 7:59
  in
• 7:59
  my
• 8:00
  marriage,
• 8:00
  I
• 8:01
  would
• 8:01
  be
• 8:01
  robbed
• 8:01
  of
• 8:01
  the
• 8:01
  joy
• 8:02
  of
• 8:02
  having
• 8:02
  a
• 8:02
  God
• 8:03
  that
• 8:03
  tells
• 8:03
  me
• 8:03
  he
• 8:04
  is
• 8:04
  my
• 8:04
  helper,
• 8:05
  that
• 8:05
  he
• 8:05
  walks
• 8:05
  with
• 8:06
  me
• 8:06
  and
• 8:06
  equips
• 8:06
  me
• 8:07
  every
• 8:07
  day
• 8:07
  for
• 8:08
  what
• 8:08
  he
• 8:08
  calls
• 8:08
  me
• 8:08
  to
• 8:09
  life
• 8:09
  would
• 8:09
  be
• 8:09
  overwhelming
• 8:10
  without
• 8:11
  the
• 8:11
  God
• 8:11
  that
• 8:11
  dwells
• 8:12
  with
• 8:12
  us,
• 8:12
  but
• 8:12
  his
• 8:13
  yoke
• 8:13
  is
• 8:13
  easy
• 8:13
  and
• 8:13
  his
• 8:14
  burden
• 8:14
  is
• 8:14
  light.
• 8:15
  Heavenly
• 8:15
  Father,
• 8:16
  these
• 8:16
  are
• 8:16
  some
• 8:17
  of
• 8:17
  the
• 8:17
  most
• 8:17
  attacked
• 8:18
  chapters
• 8:18
  of
• 8:18
  your
• 8:18
  word,
• 8:19
  but
• 8:19
  we
• 8:19
  submit
• 8:20
  to
• 8:20
  the
• 8:20
  fact
• 8:20
  that
• 8:21
  you
• 8:21
  are
• 8:21
  creator.
• 8:22
  You
• 8:22
  have
• 8:22
  made
• 8:22
  us
• 8:22
  in
• 8:23
  your
• 8:23
  image.
• 8:24
  And
• 8:24
  you
• 8:24
  created
• 8:24
  marriage
• 8:24
  for
• 8:25
  good.
• 8:25
  we
• 8:25
  praise
• 8:26
  you,
• 8:26
  that
• 8:26
  you
• 8:26
  are
• 8:26
  a
• 8:26
  mighty
• 8:27
  God,
• 8:27
  but
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  you
• 8:27
  also
• 8:28
  walk
• 8:28
  with
• 8:28
  us.
• 8:29
  Help
• 8:29
  us
• 8:29
  to
• 8:30
  hold
• 8:30
  both
• 8:30
  of
• 8:30
  those
• 8:31
  truths,
• 8:31
  not
• 8:31
  only
• 8:32
  in
• 8:32
  our
• 8:32
  own
• 8:32
  hearts,
• 8:32
  but
• 8:32
  as
• 8:33
  we
• 8:33
  parent
• 8:33
  our
• 8:33
  children.
• 8:34
  Make
• 8:34
  your
• 8:34
  word
• 8:35
  transform
• 8:35
  and
• 8:35
  renew
• 8:36
  our
• 8:36
  hearts
• 8:36
  and
• 8:36
  our
• 8:36
  minds.
• 8:37
  Help
• 8:38
  us
• 8:38
  to
• 8:38
  embrace
• 8:38
  your
• 8:38
  design
• 8:39
  and
• 8:39
  we
• 8:39
  pray
• 8:40
  that
• 8:40
  our
• 8:40
  children.
• 8:41
  Would
• 8:41
  be
• 8:41
  rooted
• 8:41
  in
• 8:42
  the
• 8:42
  truth
• 8:42
  of
• 8:42
  your
• 8:42
  word,
• 8:43
  finding
• 8:43
  their
• 8:43
  identity
• 8:44
  and
• 8:44
  who
• 8:45
  you
• 8:45
  created
• 8:45
  them
• 8:45
  to
• 8:45
  be,
• 8:46
  and
• 8:46
  that
• 8:46
  if
• 8:46
  they
• 8:46
  are
• 8:46
  to
• 8:47
  marry
• 8:47
  someday,
• 8:48
  that
• 8:48
  they
• 8:48
  would
• 8:48
  choose
• 8:48
  spouses
• 8:49
  that
• 8:49
  they
• 8:49
  can
• 8:49
  glorify
• 8:50
  you
• 8:50
  with.
• 8:51
  I
• 8:51
  pray
• 8:51
  that
• 8:51
  every
• 8:52
  word
• 8:52
  I
• 8:52
  utter
• 8:52
  would
• 8:53
  be
• 8:53
  in
• 8:53
  line
• 8:53
  with
• 8:53
  the
• 8:53
  truth
• 8:54
  of
• 8:54
  your
• 8:54
  character
• 8:55
  and
• 8:55
  your
• 8:55
  word,
• 8:56
  and
• 8:56
  that
• 8:56
  your
• 8:56
  Holy
• 8:57
  Spirit
• 8:57
  would
• 8:57
  be
• 8:57
  at
• 8:57
  work
• 8:58
  through
• 8:58
  this.
• 8:59
  In
• 8:59
  the
• 8:59
  mighty
• 9:00
  matchless
• 9:00
  name
• 9:01
  of
• 9:01
  Jesus
• 9:01
  Christ
• 9:02
  we
• 9:02
  pray.
• 9:02
  Amen.
• 9:04
  That
• 9:04
  was
• 9:04
  a
• 9:04
  lot
• 9:04
  to
• 9:05
  get
• 9:05
  through.
• 9:05
  Genesis
• 9:06
  one
• 9:06
  and
• 9:06
  two
• 9:06
  are
• 9:07
  jam
• 9:07
  packed
• 9:07
  with
• 9:07
  goodness,
• 9:09
  and
• 9:09
  I
• 9:09
  wanted
• 9:09
  to
• 9:09
  focus
• 9:09
  on
• 9:10
  a
• 9:10
  few
• 9:10
  lesser
• 9:10
  known
• 9:11
  details
• 9:11
  that
• 9:11
  I
• 9:11
  think
• 9:12
  have
• 9:12
  a
• 9:12
  huge
• 9:12
  impact
• 9:13
  for
• 9:13
  our
• 9:13
  lives.
• 9:14
  But
• 9:14
  I
• 9:14
  certainly
• 9:14
  wanna
• 9:15
  dive
• 9:15
  more
• 9:15
  into
• 9:15
  the
• 9:15
  idea
• 9:16
  of
• 9:16
  creation
• 9:16
  and
• 9:16
  perhaps
• 9:17
  the
• 9:17
  breadth
• 9:17
  of
• 9:17
  life
• 9:18
  and
• 9:18
  some
• 9:19
  gender
• 9:19
  issues.

  a,
• 9:22
  we
• 9:23
  will
• 9:23
  certainly
• 9:23
  have
• 9:24
  more
• 9:24
  time
• 9:24
  to

  dig
• 9:24
  into
