Understanding the Will of God
#05
Noah Found FavorHebrews 11.7
Compiled and Presented by:
Dave Stewart7 July 2013
www.churchofchristmiranda.com
Synopsis: Using the example of Noah, we find the important of obeying all of God’s commands and we discover the consequences of not being obedient. This is made clear even in the importance of the distiction between singing, as God commanded, and playing music, which He did not command. If we can change one thing, then that opens the door for us to change other things and we are soon found to be teaching a different gospel and are disobedient to God. This lesson will help us to understand the importance of obedience to His commandments.
