Lloyd is currently teaching from the first eleven chapters of the book of Genesis and we'll camp out in chapter five once again today. If you'll recall, this is where we find the first genealogy in the Bible. And while we might be tempted to gloss over this section of Scripture, pastor Lloyd believes it to be highly relevant. You'll see why as you study along!

Today on Bridging the Gap we bring you the Genealogy of Adam all the way to Jesus. And as you'll see in a moment it's quite a bit different than Cain's Genealogy. As we look at this biblical family tree, we are reminded that God was in control of humanity from the very beginning! You'll find today's scripture in Genesis five

Pastor Lloyd Pulley is sharing a new series in Genesis titled "Foundations", and we've come to Genesis chapter four and the descendants of Cain. There are remarkable similarities to our day today providing great insight to our dilemma. One of those descendants of Cain was a man names Lamech.

Evidence of the goodness of God is found in how gracious and patient He is towards those who reject Him. It's surprising to see His response. Case in point - Cain! We'll hear his story today on Bridging the Gap with pastor Lloyd Pulley.

In Genesis chapter four, we see the sad case of Cain - the first child born, and the poster boy for the folly of trying to lie to God. Cain was so jealous of his brother Abel, he killed him and then tried to cover up his wrongdoing. To help assure sin doesn't have its way with us as it did Cain, let's join pastor Lloyd Pulley.

Today we learn a valuable lesson from Genesis four- there is one way to God and we had better come to Him on His terms - not ours. The story of Cain and Abel, and the sacrifices they brought to God, is what we'll focus in on here today.

Adam and Even certainly made their fair share of poor choices, and the result was judgment and The Curse. But they weren't left without hope, because the Messiah would come to forgive them and us of sin!

For the last few weeks we've been in a series covering the first eleven chapters of Genesis. The series is called "Foundations", and we're spending a considerable amount of time right now in chapter three, which of course is where the fall of man and the curse are described for us. We don't want you to miss God's message of grace, even in the midst of the curse.

Sin is so frequently portrayed today as enjoyable, exciting and fulfilling. Rarely are we told of it's consequences. God wants the very best for us, and He knows that sin will destroy our lives, so throughout His Word He shows us what it will do to us. Genesis chapter three is one of those places, and that's where we join pastor Lloyd.

Today we will again be considering Genesis chapter three, and satan's dealings with Eve. The Devil's first tactic was to tempt Eve to doubt the word of God. Now he's going to try to get her to doubt the goodness of God. Sound familiar? He's up to the same old tricks today isn't he!
