God is unchangeable in His person, perfections, and purposes. Nothing thwarts the counsel of His will (Eph. 1:11). But from our perspective, sometimes it seems tha...
“But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord” (6:8). The word favor means acceptance or grace. When used of God’s favor toward man it means His undeserved favor.

As we see in Genesis 3, all of Adam’s descendants are born with sin natures. Romans 5:12 affirms that we all sinned “in Adam.” The doctrinal term to describe this condition is “representative headship.” But is it fair that we suffer for Adam’s sin? Consider four points.
