Christian studies

The study of Christian doctrine encompasses a wide range of theological concepts, including the nature of God, the divinity of Jesus Christ, and the role of the Holy Spirit in believers' lives. Additionally, it typically involves an exploration of Scriptures, church history, and ethical implications for contemporary society.


STUDY THE MEANING

  • Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate. (Study the spiritual meaning behind this.)

  • Noah took extra clean animals to sacrifice to God after the flood without wiping out the entire species. It ensured a stable population of animals that were safe to eat later on. This is also the first time where god seperates the “clean” from the “unclean” showing that God values holiness and purity.


  • And also seven pairs of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth. (Study the spiritual meaning about this and how this could relate to us.)

  • Birds play a massive role in spreading seeds and renewing vegetation after a disaster.


  • I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. (But figure out why specifically this long..?)

  • In biblical literature, forty is a deeply symbolic number representing a complete period of divine testing, judgment, and purification before a new spiritual beginning


  • The water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days the water had gone down, 4 and on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat. (Study why specifically this mountain?)

  • The bible specifically does not mention why.


  • When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth. (Make a personal reflection on this and how this communicates to Jesus.)

  • The freshly plucked olive leaf signifies that life was surviving beneath the surface, proving that God’s judgment was giving way to mercy and new beginnings.



Listen & Notetaking.

Watch a video (preferably 10+ minutes) long. Note take under here.

Note taking.

God made the rainbow as a promise to never flood the earth again.



Noahs story teaches us to trust and obey God. Even when others don’t listen and understand we can still do what is right. He takes care of us just like he took care of Noah’s family and the animals.
