Scripture with the Fathers

Was the ancient flood a real event in the history of man and earth? Was it just an allegory to teach a moral truth? We look to the New Testament, St. Augustine and St. Joan of Ark for answers.

In this episode, we explore the rescue or is it the destruction of man, through a boat over the water. But even though the boat is going to make it through the waters, it's not the most pleasant place to be. (Just imagine the stench!) But what's the alternative?

From the descendents of Adam diverge into two lines, those of the sons of men and those the sons of God, the line of Seth. Yet through intermingling, the World is filled with wickedness. But God has a plan...

The genealogy of Adam to Noah and The Genealogy of Cain to Lamech and their descendents; the tares among the wheat wasn't just a parable that Jesus made up in AD 32, but a parable relating to the very beginning of man. Why is this genealogy in Scripture so important, not to be passed over?

The descendants of Cain develop civilization, technology, music, and agriculture, and moral decline. With the birth of Seth, the son of Adam and Eve, man begins to call on the name of the Lord. Where do the wives of Cain and Lamech come from? We look to the Church to answer this question.

Adam's sin of disobedience brings about envy and murder in the next generation. This episode explores how envy, which comes from the enemy, produces its own fruit, not that of life, but rather death.

Who is the "Woman" at enmity with the ancient serpent who crushes his head? In this episode we look to the Fathers of the Church and recent papal documents to gain clarity on the "Woman", who she is, and her role in the redemption of man as promised in Genesis 3:15.

In this episode we explore Adam's failure in his priestly duties, original sin and its effects and The Divine Dilemma

Temptation and the Fall: Why would a creature originally created good, turn evil and desire lesser creatures to turn evil as well? What did Eve buy with her rebellion of God's command, and how much did it cost?

We begin looking at the fall of man as a result of Adam failing in his priestly duties to keep and guard the Temple of creation. We look to Scripture itself to confirm Adam's priestly office.
