About This Message
Working through God's covenant with Noah in Genesis 9:1-17, Pastor Addison teaches that God is for flourishing life, seen in his provision of meat, his prohibition against eating blood, and his institution of capital punishment to protect human life made in his image. He then shows how the rainbow, God's sign that he would never flood the earth again, proves his promises can always be trusted.
Key Takeaways
- God is for flourishing life, not violence or destruction
- Capital punishment was instituted by God to protect human life
- God's promises, sealed by the rainbow, can always be trusted
