Genesis 3

An Ancient Christmas: The Coming of Jesus in the Old…

The Lord's Day Morning December 2, 2012 “An Ancient Christmas: The Coming of Christ in the Old Testament — The Seed” Genesis 3:1-19 The Reverend Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Genesis 3. We’re beginning this morning our month-long December series, “An Ancient Christmas: The Coming of Jesus in the Old Testament.” And just as David said as he was reading Jeremiah 7 this morning that those who do not know their need and their brokenness are not in a position to adequately rejoice at the provision that is given to us in the mercy of God, so it is also true that we're not ready to rejoice in the good tidings of Christmas, the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, His incarnation, and advent in this world, until we understand…

The Fall 1

If you have your Bibles I'd invite you to turn with me to Genesis, chapter 3 and we're going to attend to the first thirteen verses. Genesis 3. Hear the word of the living God: Genesis 3:1-7 Our Father, we bow before You in Your sovereignty and in your goodness as we read Your word, and we ask that You would enlighten our own hearts to the truth, not only that we would understand the passage and the doctrines that it teaches, but that we would be warned off by the Holy Spirit from our own sins.

We pray as well that You would be glorified in us as we obediently receive the truth of the word of God in our own…

A Festival of 9 Lessons & Carols The Lord's Day Morning December 4, 2005 Genesis 3:8-19 “The Promised Seed” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Genesis, chapter three. As I said before the service, today we begin a series of studies of the Lessons that are used with the Carol Service at King's College Chapel in Cambridge, England, and have been used every year since 1918; and which, for many years, at least in part have been used here at Christmastime for the Music of Christmas. These Lessons span the course of redemptive history: moving from the fall of Adam, his plunging the world into a state of sin and misery, through his original act of sin and rebellion and pride against God, to the consummation when the…

The Blessings of the Curses

Please turn with me to Genesis, chapter 3. We’re continuing our study in the book of Genesis, those foundations of the faith that are set forth there. And last week we looked specifically at the account of Adam's fall in Genesis 3, verses 1 through 13, and we saw there in that account several important things about the nature of sin. For one thing we saw that sin in its essence is rebellion. It is lawlessness. It is rejection of and rebellion against God's good law. The order that He…
