About this episode

Pastor Adam Burton discusses the implications of Genesis 9 following the flood and explores themes of human nature and divine justice.

The flood was the most dramatic reset in human history. It cleaned the earth completely. But Noah walked off the ark into a clean world with the exact same broken heart. In this message from the "Foundations" series, Pastor Adam Burton explores Genesis 9. Discover why God instituted capital punishment, how the rainbow is actually an unstrung weapon of war, and why Jesus had to take the arrow of divine justice on the cross. 📖 Scripture: Genesis 9 In This Video: 0:00 - Opening 0:49 - Introduction: The Flood Didn't Fix It 1:55 - The Dialysis Illustration 3:25 - Point 1: The World Changed But We Didn't 7:31 - Why God Established Civil Government 11:11 - Point 2: God Makes the Promise His Problem 13:31 - The True Meaning of the Rainbow 17:53 - The Abraham Lincoln Illustration 20:18 - Point 3: The Best Man We Had Still Fell 24:06 - Two Responses to Human Failure 29:58 - Conclusion: The Arrow of Justice 33:36 - Closing — STAY CONNECTED — GIVE ONLINE: https://cbcmaysville.com/give VISIT WEBSITE: https://cbcmaysville.com FACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/cbcmaysville INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/centralbaptistmaysville X: https://x.com/cbcmaysville YOUTUBE…
