This week we trace our second thread through Scripture: the Exodus. We walk through the familiar account - slavery in Egypt, the ten plagues, the Passover lamb and the blood on the doorpost, the parting of the sea - and then step back to notice the same pattern already showing up in Abraham's and Jacob's earlier stories, revealing it was written into Scripture with intention from the start.

We unpack what the Passover teaches about grace coming before obedience, God rescuing a people for relationship with Himself, and the exile that later comes as a promise of a coming new exodus. That promise lands in Jesus, the greater Moses, who succeeds everywhere Israel failed and becomes our true Passover Lamb, freeing us from a greater bondage than Egypt ever was.

This week, we start tracing our first thread through the whole Bible: the promised seed. Genesis 1:28 gives humanity a mandate to fill the earth with God's glory, but Genesis 3 breaks it. God responds with a promise in Genesis 3:15 - a seed of the woman who will crush the serpent's head, and we follow that promise through Noah, Abraham, and David, watching each one carry it forward while falling short of fulfilling it themselves.

The thread converges in Jesus, the second Adam and promised seed, whose obedience finally accomplishes what Adam, Noah, Abraham, and Israel could not. We close by connecting the original creation mandate to the Great Commission, and land on a simple, steadying truth for anyone who feels disqualified by their own failures: human failure never overturns God's purpose.

Genesis 3 can feel like an odd story to explain to someone unfamiliar with the Bible - a talking serpent, a forbidden tree. But this week's study argues it's actually the most relevant account in Scripture, describing a pattern that still plays out today. We walk through the nature of sin in the serpent's temptation of Eve, the consequences of shame, hiding, and blame that followed, and the curses pronounced on the serpent, the woman, and the man.

We close on the hope tucked inside the curse: God's promise in Genesis 3:15 that a seed of the woman will one day crush the serpent's head. And we connect this chapter forward to Romans 1, seeing why we need a second Adam to make right what the first Adam broke. This is Week 2 of Threads at FBC Boerne.
