     The Indisputable Gospel of Jesus In The Book Of Genesis, genealogy,

    (source) 

    Where is the first place the gospel appears in the Bible? The answer may surprise you. Follow along and you’ll see a summary of God’s plan of redemption – hidden here within a genealogy in the book of Genesis!

    Supernatural Crafting of the Gospel in the Bible

    The Bible is not simply a bunch of books written by lots of authors over thousands of years; the Bible is a connected whole which bears evidence of supernatural crafting over and over again.

    Let’s study to see if the case for biblical authority holds water or not.

    One remarkable example of this cohesiveness can be glimpsed in Genesis Chapter 5, where we have the genealogy of Adam through Noah. As we read, we see the Hebrew names, but what do these names mean in English?

    The meaning of proper names can be a difficult pursuit. Even a conventional Hebrew lexicon can prove disappointing. A study of the original roots, however, can yield some fascinating insights.

    The Indisputable Gospel Is Begun

    1. Adam

    The Hebrew word adam is translated either as “man” or “Adam” depending on context. Adam was formed from the ground (Gen 2:7). Word play between “Adam” and “ground” (adama) is unmistakable. (source)

    2. Seth

    Adam’s son was named Seth, which means appointed. When Eve names Seth she says, “God has appointed (???) me another offspring..”. (Genesis 4:25), and traditionally readers have understood that therefore the name Seth must come from ???. (source – see end of page)

    3. Enosh

    Seth’s son was called Enosh, which means mortal, frail, or miserable. It is from the root anash, to be incurable, used of a wound, grief, woe, sickness, or wickedness. And it was in the days of Enosh that men began to defile the name of the Living God. (source)

    4. Kenan

    Enosh’s son was named Kenan, which can mean sorrow, dirge, or elegy. (The precise denotation is somewhat elusive; some study aids unfortunately presume that Kenan is synonymous with Cainan.)

    Balaam, looking down from the heights of Moab, uses a pun upon the name of the Kenites when he prophesies their destruction.

    We have no real idea as to why these names were chosen for their children. Often they may have referred to circumstances at birth, and so on.

     

     

    5. Mahalalel

    Kenan’s son was Mahalalel, from Mahalal which means blessed or praise; and El, the name for God. Thus, Mahalalel means the Blessed God. Often Hebrew names include El, the name of God, as Dan-i-el, “God is my Judge”, etc.

    The Gospel Message Continued

    For more depth on the last 5 names, go here. If we continue and pull all these meanings together we distinctly have the Gospel message.

    Adam – Man
    Seth – appointed
    Enosh- mortal
    Kenan– sorrow
    Mahalalel- The blessed God
    Jared– Shall descend
    Enoch– teaching
    Methuselah– His death shall bring
    Lamech– the despairing
    Noah– rest, or comfort.

    Put together (with some added conjunctions) it says: Man (is) appointed mortal sorrow, (but) the blessed God shall come down teaching. His death shall bring (the) despairing comfort and rest.

    This was written more than 3,000 years ago or about 1,400 years before Christ.

     

     
    This is just one example of many of how God proves to us the validity of His Word, the Bible. Who else but God could orchestrate a collection of 66 separate books written by approximately 40 different authors from various geographical locations, over a period of about 1,500 to 2,000 years into one cohesive, interwoven story from beginning to end?

    The singular message, the “scarlet thread” of truth that binds each of the books together as one make the Bible, alone against all other revered texts, a revelation of God to Man.

    “He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time..” ~2 Timothy 1:9 (italics mine)

    God always rewards the diligent student!

     book by Martyn Lloyd-Jones

    Many wonder how Jesus Christ is present in the Old Testament or how even one can preach the gospel of Jesus Christ from the Old Testament. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, a minister of Westminster Chapel in London for thirty years, (1899-1981), with exegetical acuteness shows how.

     

     
    In this series of never-before-published sermons, this beloved teacher walks readers through the early chapters of Genesis. The Gospel in Genesis starts with the fall of man and ends with the call of Abram as it examines portions of chapters 3-12.

    Thus Lloyd-Jones preaches the indisputable gospel of Jesus Christ from the pages of Genesis.

    Hi! I’m Jacqueline!

    Thanks for being part of this journey with me.
    Welcome to my own little place on the internet! Home is where I love to be. I feel there is no greater place to incubate souls. These days you’ll find me using my experiences here to write about herbal remedies and natural health research — a big passion of mine. But being a wife and mother is not easy. It is challenging and potentially lonely. I get that. I wanted to create a place to connect with and support other moms for creating a natural, healthy, and fulfilling home life.
