We join a  journey with Abram from Egypt back to Canaan. We'll be thinking through what it means to live by faith not sight as he faces a choice; to trust the promises of God, or make decisions based on what he can see in front of him.

We'll use the following headers to help guide us:
i) Abram Returns vv.1-4
ii) Strife with Lot vv.5-7
iii) Faith or Sight? vv.8-13
iv) A Promise renewed vv.14-18

This sermon was originally preached at Holy Trinity in Richmond.

ii) Abram's Deception vv.13-16
iii) God's Faithfulness vv.17-20

ii) God's Promise           12:2-3

 In this sermon Zane Elliott is taking us on a 'cruise ship approach' as we remind ourselves of some of the great truths we discovered in the first part of the Book of Genesis in 2021. We will pick up Genesis again next week as we  "walk with Abraham"  until the season of Advent.   

 Today's Sermon will follow three main movements:
i) A perfect beginning (chapters 1 & 2) 
ii) The spread of deadly venom (chapters 3 to 8) 
iii) A new beginning (chapters 9-11:9)

Reading Genesis 1-2:3 and Genesis 11:1-9 will be helpful, reading all eleven chapters would be even better.

Andrew Burgess, Dean of Bishopdale College unpacks the Doctrine of the Trinity, as shorthand for the Good News of Jesus.

On Pentecost we remember the outpouring of God's Holy Spirit on the Apostles. It was a history-changing moment. A long awaited promise was fulfilled. 

Zane Elliott opens Acts 2:1-21, Romans 8:1-17 and helps us answer the question 'Why was the Holy Spirit given to believers?' 
We see that it was so: 
i) Believers could prophesy 
ii) So that we could be saved: 
a) Saved from what? 
b) Saved to what?
