The Flood

James Rochford

1 Peter 3:20-21

After some time in human history, God looked at His creation and saw total depravity across the world. It broke God's heart and He brought judgment on the world through the Flood. There is considerable debate about whether the events of Noah and the Flood were real events in human history or not. There are also 270 accounts of "a flood" in different cultures worldwide which does point to a common historical event. The plausibility of the Flood is discussed as well as if it was a local or global event.

The Causes, Effects, and Solution for the Fall

James Rochford

Genesis 3:1-24

When God created Adam and Eve, they lived in the Garden of Eden in perfect harmony and contentment. However, Satan approached Eve and prompted her to question God's instructions about the Tree of Life. Since God gave them free will, Adam and Eve ate fruit from the tree that God said not to; therefore, rebelling against God and allowing sin to enter the world. Take a look at the causes, effects and the solution to the fall of man-that still has lasting consequences to this day!
