To Be Human - Part Twenty: Snakebitten. Today, we explore the origin story of the powers in Genesis, focusing on the serpent and the choice between following Yahweh's wisdom or defining good and evil for oneself. We look at the story of Cain and Abel as an example of the ongoing conflict between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent. Further, we look at the theme of the serpent and its influence throughout biblical narratives. It begins with the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis, where sin enters the world through the serpent's temptation. This theme continues in Genesis 6 with the Nephilim, who are the offspring of the sons of God and the daughters of humans. The conversation then highlights how this pattern of succumbing to the serpent's temptation repeats throughout biblical history, with figures like Cain, Solomon, and even David. However, Jesus breaks this pattern by resisting the serpent's temptation in the wilderness.
Spiritual warfare! The importance of resisting social behaviors that dehumanize and divide! The need to redefine our roles and resist in a way that promotes human flourishing and breaks destructive cycles!
First, we spend time lamenting and discussing the recent school shooting in Atlanta and our frustration with the lack of action on gun violence. We question the Christian position on guns and lament the normalization of school shootings.
