Our speaker during Family Bible Hour was Mr Joshua Miekley. He is pictured with daughters, Sarah and Joanna. His message was based on Genesis 2 -- here's a portion of the passage:
18And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
19And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
21And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
25And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Imagine the world God's way. Looking at the detailed account of the Garden of Eden would give us a picture of the world according to God's way. From the Bible passage we learn the following
- God wants us to be at rest
- God designed us to obey Him
- God designed us for each other
Mr Miekley's message, in full and in context, is available on DVD. Please see Romy.
