Family Bond Paper™

Aired 10/11/2010 Noah and his family were the only humans who had been a part of two worlds on the planet earth: the evil human race, and the new human race. They were a part of the old and, also, the "new human race." A challenge to be a part of the old as well as the new led by the instructions of God (Jehovah, Allah). Noah was able to discuss with his descendents the great flood that took place during his time.  All of his descendents were unified and living in harmony. Yet, they began to dream of building a tower to heaven -where God is.  God was not pleased because earthly can not be a part of the heavens. So he divided us into various cultures, groupings, and, yes, races.  After God scattered mankind some stayed in Africa, and others went to Europe and so on.  The people who remained closer to the sun had dark skin tones.  Others who moved away from the sun became very light.  It is believed that all races have genes of the continent of Africa.  This would explain why

Aired 10/11/2010 Chapter 8 (Holy Bible) 8:2   Fountains is more of a Greek word, a description or personification of the seas and of the storm. 8:3   The rain stopped. 8:5   When there is a high tide the water rises, eventually the height of water slowly decreases.  So three months later the water finally decreased. 8:6   Just like God or Allah promised the rain stopped on the 40th day. Noah and his family still remained in the ark. 8:13  A year later the ground was dry enough to walk on. 8:14  The following month the whole earth was dry. 8:20  Noah killed and cooked many animals as a sacrificial offering unto God (Jehovah, Allah). 8:21  Since we are on the earth we are not totally like God. God did not even realize what his own creation would be like on earth. He promised that he would never destroy all of mankind again. 8:22  Speaks of his promise to all the earth.

The NewMonday is generally available each Tuesday evening. Closed last Tuesday due to the extreme heat :) Aired 10/4/2010 The next few chapters we will discuss Noah, his family, and the male/female creatures that were on the ark.  The ark was similar to a cruise ship. The NIV Bible says the ark was 450 feet long - long as 1 1/2 football fields and 45 feet tall; high as a five story building.  Some architectures have found parts of what could have been the ark near Africa.  The door was so large that God (Jehovah, Allah) had to shut it.  When you have big burdens it takes God to help you close/endure it.  Men, it is okay if you can not do everything.  Let God help you when something is too big for you to handle or endure.  The ark was built by Noah under God's instructions.  It took 120 years to build the ark. The name Noah means rest or comfort.  Noah is the son of Lamech and the grandson of Methuselah.  He is a part of the 10th generation after Adam. Chapter 7 Holy Bible,

Yet, both families are important in out every day relationships. If you stay disconnected from your blood family, you will begin to lose your family history.  Many families have challenges because of lack of communicating due to past issues or hurts.  This type of behavior allows
