Genesis 10|Nations Descended from Noah

The wickedness of man after the fall had increased greatly and the intentions of man’s heart was evil continually and God determined to apply his justice. The earth was utterly destroyed save for Noah’s family and the select creatures of the earth. God preserved Noah’s family for he “shut him in” once the flood roared. They were kept in perfect safety after which the Lord blessed them that they might “be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth,”( Chp 9:1).

A SUPERNATURAL BIRTH

One of the most difficult questions parents have to face is arguably, “mom, watoto hutoka wapi?”. This questions elicits a whole host of reactions from parents, they get jittery, begin squirming on their seats, start fidgeting and developing sweaty palms all because of a question from a 5-YEAR old, a simple question at that. You are sure to get all manner of weird answers, some down-right sinful. Our text today helps us to consider a similar question of conception, one that is more difficult to explain and comprehend. This notwithstanding, it is one not covered in shame but has all the hallmarks of glory. It is the most outstanding and pivotal moment in all human history, together with the resurrection. Join me as we behold together this wondrous mystery.
