God: Righteous and Just

August 10, 2025 Speaker: Kevin Deyette Series: By Faith

Passage: Genesis 18:16– 19:26

Title: God: Righteous and Just
Text: Genesis 18:16-33, Genesis 19:1-29
Speaker: Pastor Kevin Deyette

Notes

  1. Outcry against Sodom (Gen. 18:20-21)
    1. The outcry against Sodom wasn't due to sexual sin, but due to prosperity, pride, and exploiting the weak. (Ezekiel 16:49-51, Luke 17:28-29)
  2. Abraham offers bold, compassionate intercession. (Gen. 18:22-33).
    1. Intercession means asking for mercy where judgement is deserved.
  3. God demonstrates both mercy and judgement. (Gen. 19:16, 29)

Message Summary: God is both merciful and just. He rightly judges a sinful world, yet invites His people to intercede for mercy on behalf of the lost.

Application:

  1. Be honest with sin under the surface.
  2. Intercede for others boldly / compassionately.
  3. Look to the only Righteous one - Jesus!
