WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS ABOUT THAT...



    WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS ABOUT THAT

Have there been times when you wanted to know   
a Scriptural principle  concerning a  matter and 
were unaware of the location in the Bible? There
is no reason for one to continue in ignorance of
a principal or incident contained in Holy Scrip-
ture.
     There are many editions of  the Word of God 
containing  an index  called  a  "concordance."  
An exhaustive concordance lists each word con-
tained  in Scripture showing book, chapter and 
verse in which it is  found.  I  "srongly"  recom-
mend  the one  volume, "Strongs  Exhaustive." 
Many English copies of  Scriture have a limited  
concordance;  not  all  words are  listed  due to 
spatial  limitations.  From  this point, Scripture 
passages are listed having to do with the Lord's 
work on the earth. Where it is possible, we must 
take  God's Word  literally.  It is obvious,  as we
read  the Word,  passages which have figurative 
meanings... the rest must be taken literally.  In
this introduction we are covering early Genesis,
or beginnings.

Genesis (beginnings) 1: 1, God created heavens                                        and the 
earth.

Genesis 1:27-28, God created Adam and Eve,                                      man and 
woman.

Genesis 2:17, God gave the man a limitation. 

Genesis 3,  The Fall of man and the disasterous                        consequences  

Genesis 4,  The first births of sons and events                    surrounding the  events, with the restora-
          tion of the Spiritual seed.

Genesis 5, The birth of Enoch, who was trans-
               lated because of his righteous life.  He
               did not see death.
                    
Genesis 6-7,  Noah builds an ark to preserve 
                God's creation from a world-wide 
                flood no one survived outside the ark.

Genesis 9: 8-18. Promise given to mankind that 
                           the Lord would never again destroy 
                           civilization by flood.  His "Bow" in
                           the sky is His token.

Genesis 9:20-27, Noah curses canaan from the act
                            of Ham. Canaan was reduced to 
                           servant, to serve Shem and Japeth.
              
 Genesis 9:28-29 The death of Noah.

knows if I will live long enough to complete it?)
