Today we will be discussing the topic of submission as it relates to the book of Genesis. Stephen Beck likens biblical submission to YIELD signs posted on a turnabout which are there “simply as reasonable or gracious commands to let others have the right of way in order to avoid a collision.” In similar fashion, God posts YIELD signs in certain relationships, including our relationship with Him, not to impede our progress in life, but to keep us from crashing.

Before the invention of mapping satellites in the 20th Century, there were all sorts of explorers who made expeditions to the Middle East looking to find the Garden of Eden. Quite a few of them claimed to have located the actual place where the Garden originally was before it was destroyed (possibly in Noah’s Flood or by some other catastrophe), but they offered little proof.

Today as we look at the fourth day of creation, we will witness the origins of the stars that “give light to the earth and help to divide the light of day from the darkness of night.” But the way Moses describes their conception is quite telling. He says, “God made the stars, also.” It’s as if those billions and billions of stars out there in our universe aren’t so significant to the Lord–not near as significant as this little […]
