Ishmael’s Exile
Genesis 21:1-34 Isaac is finally born after decades of waiting, demonstrating that God keeps promises despite human doubt and delay. Abraham faithfully obeys God by naming Isaac and circumcising him, marking commitment to the covenant. When Isaac is weaned, family conflict erupts as Sarah demands Hagar and Ishmael be sent away. Though distressed, Abraham trusts God’s instruction, believing God will still fulfill His promise to make Ishmael a nation. Hagar and Ishmael nearly die in the wilderness until God hears…
The Enduring Covenant
Genesis 17:1-27 The passage reflects on Genesis 17 as a pivotal reaffirmation of God’s covenant with Abraham after decades of waiting. Twenty-four years after the original call and thirteen years after Ishmael’s birth, God renews His promise in a way that removes all doubt that its fulfillment will be a divine act.

Grace and Judgment in the Days of Noah
Genesis 6:1-22 This chapter is examined in connection with Matthew 24, where Jesus compares the end times to the “days of Noah.” The message highlights that although present-day evil is serious, it does not yet equal the corruption of Noah’s era.

Genesis 6:1–2 introduces the “sons of God” and “daughters of men.” Three main interpretations are…
Called to Testify
Acts 26:1-32 Paulo voltou a Israel após suas viagens missionárias e foi preso em Cesareia por dois anos. Festo substituiu Félix como governador. Félix, apesar de sua corrupção, evitou punição por causa de conexões em Roma. Paulo está em julgamento novamente. Festo consulta o rei Agripa e Berenice, que visitam Cesareia. Festo não sabe o que escrever a César sobre Paulo, o que leva à realização dessa audiência pública. Agripa e Berenice, irmãos e em um relacionamento imoral, fazem parte…
Paul’s First Trial
Acts 23:1-35 Background Recap: Paul completes his 3rd missionary journey, heading to Jerusalem despite warnings of danger.
