In this class, we take a close look at the events of the “Battle of the Kings.” We find that God is not only the “King of Righteousness and Peace” Who governs with justice, but He is righteousness itself. Because of this, His people can confidently be at peace, knowing He does all things well.

In this class, we discover how the Tower of Babel embodies the contradictory ways of men with those of God. We also look into how God’s intentions for mankind are being restored through the “ladder” that rested on Jacob and Jesus (Yeshua).
In this class, we take a close look at the lessons of the Tower of Babel and how the condition of the pre-flood world sheds light on the determinations and designs of man – BUT God scatters us – will we trust Him?
This class dives into God’s love for all the nations and how the Kingdom of Heaven shines the light of equality when we understand the saying, “The first will be last and the last will be first.”
This class looks at the continuing parallels between the pre-flood and post-flood worlds. We discover that love covers our vulnerabilities, and how dishonoring others leads to captivity. We also look into both the effect of sin on our hearts and our freedom to bless others.
God gives man more authority and responsibility in the post-flood world. Even in light of man’s tendency for destruction, the Lord promises to bless them and not destroy them. We delve into concepts of the “intentions/inclinations” of man’s heart and God’s answer – Grace/Favor.

In this class, we discuss the sorrow the Lord feels as man chooses to repress the memories of the Garden of Eden. We discuss topics of how man’s actions after the expulsion from the Garden ignores out of ignorance but God endures in wisdom. Also, we see that the covenant with Noah to enter the Ark reveals the unconditional nature of God’s covenant relationships with mankind.
In this class, we discuss how mankind looks to himself and even technology to suppress our sorrow at the loss of our Garden of Eden relationship. We discover mankind’s increasing tendency to look for “things,” “people,” and “relationships” to replace God in our world. We also discuss topics of who “the Sons of God” are, and the Nephilim.
