He Lived and He Died

Oct 25, 2015Dr. John King, Senior PastorLife, Death, and AfterlifeBeginnings (Book of Genesis)

This message explores the foundational truths about life, death, and life after death as presented in Genesis 5. The speaker emphasizes that all humans are created in the image of God but are born with a sinful nature due to Adam's fall, which separates them from God. The only hope for restoration is through Jesus Christ, who provides a way to reconcile this relationship. Additionally, the message discusses the inevitability of physical death and the importance of understanding what happens after death, highlighting the contrast between eternal life in God's presence for believers and eternal separation for those who reject Him.

Genesis 5:1-24Romans 5:12Ephesians 2:11 Corinthians 15:25-26Revelation 20:14John 3:16-18Hebrews 11:52 Corinthians 5:8Philippians 1:23Jude 14-15
