Dr. Craig Hines, Senior Pastor at Kerens Cowboy Church, discusses how Genesis 5–6 marks a major transition in the biblical story. Genesis 5 traces the human family from Adam to Noah, emphasizing both the continuation of God's purposes and the repeated reality of death. Genesis 6 explains why the Flood becomes necessary: human wickedness has become pervasive, yet one man—Noah—finds favor with God. Using a logical Bible approach, Dr. Hines discusses why we should ask not only “What happened?” but also “What does the text teach about human nature, morality, responsibility, God, and the consequences of choices?” We should also distinguish what the text actually says from later speculation
