Genesis: Temptation
Show Notes

God saves, and Satan seduces. This isn't something that has happened, this is something that always happens. In this message, Pastor Bogdan expounds on temptation: Man’s disobedience in which sin enters the world. Who does Satan speak to? The Woman. Why? Because those that are most vulnerable amongst us, are those that Satan preys on, and that is women and children.

We see from the text that the only thing that God called not good from all of His creation, is the fact that it was not good for man to be alone. Therefore, God created for him a helper, a beneficial adversary if you will. In this text, we see that there are glories that are masculine in nature and we see glories that are feminine in nature. 

The glory of man is to create, protect, and cultivate. The glory of women is to listen, provide feedback, correct, and curate. An overly domineering man and a highly critical woman is the anti-gospel. A man who submits to Christ thereby having his wife submit to him is a picture of the beautiful gospel. We see the gospel, clearly from this text, in that even when we hide from God, He comes to find us, not to judge us but to save us. 


Let's get ready to find hope in Jesus, by listening to this message.
