Sunday School: 10/19/08 & 10/26/08

Two weeks ago we kicked off our study of the book of Numbers...that's right....Numbers. Now you may be asking, "Johnny, why Numbers and not Leviticus?" That is an excellent, excellent question, my dear reader, and the answer is, unfortunately, incredibly simple: Exodus ended with the Israelites at Mt. Sinai; Numbers picks up where Exodus left off and follows them from Sinai to just outside the Promised Land. After considering Hebrews, Ephesians, Romans, James, Leviticus, and Ecclesiastes without a strong leading one way or another, I decided to stay the course and continue our analysis of the OT. And I am sure glad that we did!!!

The last few weeks' studies have been surprising to me. Even after preparing to teach the lessons, I'm always amazed at how, through our discussion times, the Spirit really illuminates the truths of scripture and we seem to always come away changed. It is truly a testament to the sovereignty and goodness of our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope your own study of these passages is as rewarding.
