Genesis 2:19-20  Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 20So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals.
Point 3:  Abraham’s Moment  vs. Genesis 12:1  The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.

Point 5:  Joshua’s Moment  vs. Joshua 1:1-3 After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ aide: 2“Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them—to the Israelites. 3I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses.

Point 6:  David’s Moment  vs. 2 Samuel 11:1,4 4   In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war…But David remained in Jerusalem. 4Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her…Then she went back home.
