Noah’s
Ark is one of the most familiar stories in the Old Testament, yet we tend to
remember the childhood cartoon version of it.
A man and his family gather up the earth’s animals and enter the ark on
faith, survive a terrible flood, and then repopulate the earth. But this skips
over the important fact that God judges the earth and unleashes his terrible
wrath. How do we as moderns reconcile this terrible image of God with our
notion that he is a God of love and mercy?

Living the Bible - Genesis Edition: Justice, Love, and Generosity part 2 (Chris)
Continuing
the prior lesson, we explore how the story of Cain and Abel focuses on
generosity and illuminates the justice of God and the love of God. We see
how we can be like Cain ourselves if and when we pursue our relationship with
God selfishly and out of obligation rather than love. Even then, we conclude
that God loves us no matter what.
