And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.” Genesis 3:10
D.L. MOODYMost of us live away from home. We are hiding as Adam did in the bushes of Eden. There was a time when God’s voice thrilled Adam’s soul with joy and gladness, and he thrilled God’s heart with joy. They lived in sweet fellowship with each other. God had lifted Adam to the very gates of heaven and had made him lord over all creation. I haven’t a doubt that He had …

“Hell disappeared and no one noticed.”
With that terse observation the late church historian Martin Marty summarized our attitude toward a vanishing doctrine that received a great deal of attention in previous generations. Hell is scarcely mentioned in most evangelical churches today. I must ask: When is the last time you heard a sermon or a serious Bible lesson on the topic? Sometimes it is given a quick mention, but yes, Marty is right, hell has disappeared and we didn’t even notice.
But in November of 2025, the doctrine of hell received renewed attention when Kirk Cameron said (Part …

But the LORD God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?” Genesis 3:9
D.L. MOODYA man once said to me “How do you know that God put that question to Adam?”The best answer I can give is: Because He has put it to me many a time. I doubt whether there ever has been a son or a daughter of Adam who has not heard that voice ringing through the soul many a time. Who am I? What am I? Where am I going? So, let us put the question to ourselves, personally, Where …

They also took Lot, the son of Abram’s brother, who was dwelling in Sodom, and his possessions, and went their way. Genesis 14:12
D.L. MOODYFor awhile, Lot made money very fast in Sodom and became a very successful man. If you had gone into Sodom a little while before destruction came, you would have found that Lot owned some of the best corner lots in town, and that Mrs. Lot moved in what they called the bonton society or upper ten; and you would have found she was at the theatre two or three nights in the week. If …

Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him. Genesis 5:24By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God. Hebrews 11:5
D.L. MOODYA great deal is being said about holiness. Every true child of God desires to be holy as His Father in heaven is holy. And holiness is walking with God. Enoch had only one object. How simple life becomes when we have only one object to seek, …

She had introduced sin into the world.God let her live long enough on the face of the Earth to see what she had done. The first child that was born after the fall was a murderer (Genesis 4:1–8). She lived nearly a thousand …

And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn. Luke 2:7
D.L. MOODYThe natural human heart is like that inn at Bethlehem—no room for Christ! Every true saint of God for four thousand years had been gazing out into the future, looking and listening that they might hear the footfall of the Coming One. Bible students think that when Eve brought forth her firstborn and said: “I have gotten a man from the LORD” (Genesis 4:1), she thought …

We all want to see character growth and personal change. But when sin enters the picture, we resent God’s ways and plan, rebelling against him. Pastor Lutzer observes that many issues we face today go back to the Garden of Eden, when the goodness of God was questioned. What does it take for our behavior to change?
