The Good Side of the Family
Enoch
Noah
Abraham
David
Solomon
Josiah

Enoch
Enoch lived sixty-five
years, and became the
father of Methuselah.
Then Enoch walked with
God three hundred years
after he became the
father of Methuselah, and
he had other sons and
daughters. So all the days
of Enoch were three
hundred and sixty-five
years. Enoch walked with
God; and he was not, for
God took him.

Noah
But Noah found favor in
the eyes of the LORD.
Genesis 6:8
By faith Noah…,in
reverence prepared an ark
for the salvation of his
household…
Hebrews 11:7
But [God] preserved Noah,
a preacher of
righteousness…
2 Peter 2:5

Abraham
Father of Faith
Heir of Righteousness
Friend of God

Father and Son
David
Psalmist

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY
With the exception of Enoch all of these
men have recorded failures

Notice the
Women?
Tamar
Rahab
Ruth
Bathsheba

Tamar
Daughter-in-law to Judah
Two evil husbands
A rather R-rated tale…

Rahab
Hebrews 11:31 (NASB95)
31 By faith Rahab the harlot did
not perish along with those
who were disobedient, after
she had welcomed the spies in
peace.
James 2:25 (NASB95)
25 In the same way, was not
Rahab the harlot also justified
by works when she received
the messengers and sent them
out by another way?
Canaanite woman
Lived in Jericho
Helped the Jewish
spies
She had a rather
unusual last name…

Ruth an
Outcast
A Moabitess
A widow
A stranger in a foreign land
Picture of the role of the
kinsman redeemer
Deuteronomy 23:3 (NASB95)
3 “No Ammonite or Moabite shall
enter the assembly of the LORD; none
of their descendants, even to the tenth
generation, shall ever enter the
assembly of the LORD,

Sinners & Saints
as it is written, “THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT
EVEN ONE;
Romans 3:10
For what the Law could not do, weak as it was
through the flesh, God did: sending His own
Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an
offering for sin, He condemned sin in the
flesh,
Romans 8:3

The plan
Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in
all things, so that He might become a merciful and
faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to
make propitiation for the sins of the people.
Hebrews 2:17
and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins;
and not for ours only, but also for those of the
whole world.
1 John 2:2

Easter at Christmas
and He Himself bore our sins in His body
on the cross, so that we might die to sin
and live to righteousness; for by His
wounds you were healed.
1 Peter 2:24
