Our Genesis Family Ministry reflects our conviction that God ordained the family as the basic building block of human society.

Alternatively, Satan hates the family. His initial attack on God’s supreme creation in Genesis 3 corrupted the family, but it also initiated a chain reaction of the following sins below, each of which is an assault on the sanctity and harmony of marriage and the family.

The book of Genesis catalogs:

• Fratricide (4:8)
  “Cain spoke to Abel his brother. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.”
• Polygamy (4:19, 23)
  “And Lamech took two wives. The name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah…”
• Evil sexual thoughts and words (9:22)
  “And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brothers outside.”
• Adultery (16:1–4)
  “So, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, and gave her to Abram her husband as a wife.” 
• Homosexuality (19:4–11)
  “And they called to Lot, ‘Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us, that we may know them.’”
• Fornication and Rape (34:1–2)
  “Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the women of the land. And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her, he seized her and lay with her and humiliated her.”
• Incest (38:13–18)
  “When Judah saw [Tamar], he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face. He turned to her at the roadside and said, ‘Come, let me come in to you,’ for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law.”
• Prostitution (38:24)
  “[Tamar] said, ‘What will you give me, that you may come in to me?’ He answered, ‘I will send you a young goat from the flock.’ And she said, ‘If you give me a pledge, until you send it.’ He said, ‘What pledge shall I give you?’ She replied, ‘Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand.’ So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him.”
• Seduction (39:7–12)
  “Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance. And after a time his master’s wife cast her eyes on Joseph and said, ‘Lie with me.’”
