God in every detail

Every Word of God is inspired

July 9, 2017 • Pastor Paul Torres

What do you do when you come to a long list of names in the Bible? Are you tempted just to jump over it? Don’t! After all, 2 Timothy 3 tells us that “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” This “all scripture” includes even the genealogies. So if you haven’t seen God’s truth in them, you haven’t been looking! In today’s message from Nehemiah chapter 11, Pastor Paul shows us how the names of the people who moved back in to Jerusalem tell a story about God’s faithfulness—and the coming of Christ.
