Enoch, Abel, and the Law on Our Hearts—The Dispensation of Conscience (Ep. 198)
Description
Broadcasting from Eagle Pass, I kick off Bible Study Sunday a little under the weather but fired up to continue our dispensations series. After recapping our recent milestone pace and yesterday’s marathon broadcasting day, I dive into week three: the Dispensation of Conscience. We revisit the fall of Adam, the loss of his crowns, and how, absent a written law, God inscribed the law of conscience on the human heart. I walk through Romans 2 and Acts 17 to show how conscience guided right and wrong in the “times of ignorance,” and how God still made Himself known to seekers like Cain, Enoch, and Noah—later mirrored by Cornelius and the Ethiopian eunuch.
I explain why fig leaves symbolize human-made religion that can’t cover sin, the necessity of a bloody covering pictured in Genesis 3:21 , and the difference between temporary Old Testament coverings and Christ’s once‑for‑all sacrifice. We contrast Abel’s acceptable offering with Cain’s works-based approach, unpack the principle “without shedding of blood there is no remission,” and explore Enoch as a type of the church raptured before judgment—foreshadowing tribulational events. We close with prayer, preview next week’s dive into the Dispensation of Law, and invite listeners to stay engaged as we continue building line upon line in this study.
