Summary

Some of you are thinking, “The idea of divine judgment is upsetting, outdated, and irrelevant.” My goal is to respectfully show you that you’re absolutely wrong on all three counts. The story of Noah and the flood is about divine judgment. And if we look at three things being taught in it, we’ll understand the meaning of judgment. And we’ll see what a difference these three things make for our lives. We’re taught here about 1) the violence of man, 2) the pain of God, and 3) the solution to both. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 3, 2000. Series: Genesis – The Gospel According to God. Scripture: Genesis 6:5-13; 7:17-18. Today's podcast is brought to you by Gospel in Life, the site for all sermons, books, study guides and resources from Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church.
