This is our first Live Webcast on SermonAudio.
Pastor starts with an update to his kidney stone situation, and from there he goes directly into the discussion from last week... The Dust of the Earth. Reading from Genesis 2, the description of God creating Adam and Eve... we ask you to follow along. The answer is in the scope of Christ's infinite mind. Omniscience makes it so that it must be done from the dust of the earth. What was Christ remembering? (Thank you, Gabriel, for the encouragement to discuss the three-dimensional complexity of all Scripture) Consider that the Light of the earth is only half light and half dark. GodChrist did that. And the new earth will have only light... redemption, with a new and glorious city.
We get into the cursing of Satan... partially for the abundance of his traffic (trafficking in lies). What is utter darkness? The lake of fire. Now contrast that with the new heaven and the new earth. And when we understand the partial darkness, then we can begin to understand "Dust of the Earth".
The Bible is a legal document, and what you'll learn about that is eye opening to say the least. The Judge has put Himself on trial. No one can take His life. He must lay it down. He is life, therefore – our life, animal life – cannot be extinguished.
Adam was not made from nothing. He was made from the dust, but the angles were not. What are the implications of that?... But Christ allows the darkness to continue after the fall of Satan. Are you starting to get the "dust" and "darkness" put together? Listen or watch the video and then you can begin, for there is much more to this discussion.
Thank you for searching the Scriptures with us.
