Sunday School 2/10/2008: Exodus 1 & 2

As I said this morning, either you guys really like the Old Testament or else you are gluttons for punishment! After your feedback as to where to go after Genesis, the overwhelming consensus was Exodus, the next book of the Old Testament Books of Law. In all seriousness, though, I am very excited to teach Exodus with you all and I hope that we enjoy it as much as, if not more than, Genesis. Exodus is an amazing book that centers around faithfulness. It is in Exodus that God demonstrates his faithfulness to his people, the Israelites in delivering them from bondage in Egypt. This theme, among others, connects the books of Genesis and Exodus as a cohesive account of God's promise and sovereign ability to accomplish what he has promised.

This morning, we opened with a brief discussion of the connecting context between Genesis and Exodus and were introduced to Moses, God's appointed man to lead the Israelites from bondage...Moses just didn't know it yet. We saw how the divine hand of God was at work to connect events and circumstances for the furthering of his plan to save his people.

Here's the outline to this week's study in case you lost it or didn't get to join us today.I hope that you will join us next week as we see God's calling on Abraham's life...it promises to be a great time in fellowship and study of the Word.

Exodus 1 & 2
