Introduction The purpose of Creation is to form unique people who know God and please Him having a good relationship with Him and each other. God in His purposes created Adam and Eve according to His image and His likeness and He blessed them commanding them to be fruitful and bring up their children to be a blessing to the earth and each other. God provided a place that we call ‘Paradise’ as a shelter for them and a place for work and living. However, God’s plan was destroyed by Satan when Satan tempted Adam and Eve and they fell into sin, and missed the purposes and privileges that God had intended for them. The Bible tells us in every generation there is a person or family who stand for God. Here are some examples: Noah was a righteous man and with his family who stood against an evil generation. He was a good man in his generation. Gen. 6:9, This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. 10And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.11The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. 13And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. Abraham was a righteous man in his generation while many people around him were evil. Gen. 19:12-22 (Sodom and Gomorrah) 12Then the men said to Lot, “Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city—take them out of this place! 13“For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it.” 14So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, “Get up, get out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city!” But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking. Moses was a righteous man amongst his generation, but the people of Israel were an evil generation shown through their evil worshipping, grumbling, fighting, killing and committing adultery. Deut. 32 1“Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; And hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.2Let my teaching drop as the rain, My speech distill as the dew, As raindrops on the tender herb, And as showers on the grass.3For I proclaim the name of the Lord: Ascribe greatness to our God.4He is the Rock, His work is perfect; For all His ways are justice, A God of truth and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He.5“They have corrupted themselves; They are not His children, Because of their blemish: A perverse and crooked generation.6Do you thus deal with the Lord, O foolish and unwise people? Is He not your Father, who bought you? Has He not made you and established you? In the times of the Judges and the Kings of Israel: Some of them did good things in the eyes of the Lord and some of them did evil in the eyes of the Lord; their generation was like them. Even in the time of Jesus, we see Him talking about evil generations. Matthew: 11: 16 and 12: 39 “How evil and godless are the people of this day!” Jesus exclaimed. “You ask me for a miracle?
So when we talk about a generation we mean a group of people who are either good people or bad people. |
