Remembering the Rainbow: 6 Parts of God's Covenant with Noah... And Us
Manage episode 422764654 series 3016976
Dear OBC Family,
When was the last time you saw a rainbow? And what did you think when you saw it? What did you remember?
On Sunday, we will see what God has to say about rainbows and what the meaning of the rainbow is. Indeed, the rainbow is a sign of God’s grace and we should remember the covenant with Noah that is still in effect today.
To prepare for Sunday, read Genesis 9, as well as Isaiah 54. We will be reminded of God’s promise of grace this Sunday and how that promise encourages us to continue to walk confidently with God.
As the Lord allows, I look forward to seeing you Sunday as we worship God together.
For His Glory and your joy,
Pastor David

Discussion & Response Questions (Genesis 9:8 – 17)
Consider the text for this week. What stands out to you?
How do you think about the flood? The world that came after it? Is Genesis 1–11 more like a galaxy far, far away? Or does it influence how you think about the world?
How does the rest of the Bible pick up and apply this new beginning?
What are the parts of the world that Genesis 8:20–9:7 describe?
What is the pattern of “world building” that is found here? How does that support your views of the world? How does that invite change?
How is this new beginning after the Flood distinct from the first beginning in Genesis 1-2?
What change did the exaltation of Christ bring to the world? And does that mean for us?
How ought we to respond to this text?
