2/7 Exodus 32* - Worshipping A False God
Key Chapters of the Bible
It's common for us to hear people say things like, "Well, MY God isn't like that!" and what they mean is that they don't like the God of the Bible, and have tried to imagine God being more the way they'd like.

2/4 Exodus 27 & 28* - Our Attitude Before God
Key Chapters of the Bible
As we've been studying the Tabernacle, we're seeing just how amazing this was and how it pointed to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Today, in our study of Exodus 27 & 28, we'll even see how these details show us the kind of attitude we should have when we approach our Lord. So, join us in another rich study in God's Word!

info_outlineBy Job 19, Job thinks he's at death's door and yet, he has total hope in his coming Redeemer who is God. Join us for a special excursus study in one of the Key Verses in the Entire Old Testament!
DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:
1. In verse 25, when Job says that he “knows” his Redeemer lives, what does this word “know” indicate about the depth of Job’s certainty regarding this? Where do you think this kind of conviction comes from? How are you pursuing this kind of conviction in your own life?
2. In verse 25, what is a “redeemer”? How does Galatians 4:4-5 help us understand this concept more?
3. According to Colossians 1:13-14, what has Christ’s redemption accomplished?
4. The podcast explained that the word for “redemption” in verse 25 is a specific word “ga’al” which is used when the two people (the redeemER and the redeemED) who were related to each other. What does this tell us about the nature of Jesus? How does this tie back to the Lord’s promise in Genesis 3:15?
5. In verse 25, Job says that his redeemer “lives”. Given that Job was written well over 1,000 years before Christ, why is this a startling pronouncement?
6. What event is Job talking about in verse 26? What is Job saying that he believes?
7. Look up Isaiah 26:29, Ezekiel 37:12-14 and Daniel 12:2. What do these passages tell us about the resurrection?
8. According to the podcast, how is the word “see” that’s used in verse 27 a different word than the word “see” that’s used in verse 26? What might this difference indicate about the kind of sight we will have after the resurrection?
9. When you reflect on how early this book was written, how does this passage increase your own confidence in the certainty of these truths?
