Discussion Questions
-
What are some reasons one should study the Old Testament?
-
The Old Testament is the foundations of creation. God’s character is made known. We discovers what God’s plan and expectations are looking forward. The Old Testament helps us to know where we are going. The Old Testament provides the knowledge of sin through God’s ten commands which are the foundational commands that help us to understand our sin nature.
-
The Old Testament is still the word of God! The OT reveals God’s will, character, and morale law. We see the rich history of the covenant with Abraham and Israel. We see a glimpse of the future, and it all points to Jesus.
-
To help understand Gods character. Without the OT the NT will not be completely understood
-
To properly understand the reasons behind our desperate need for God’s saving grace!
-
Because it lays the foundation. It gives us the knowledge we otherwise wouldn’t have.
-
Why would a lack of knowledge of the Old Testament weaken our understanding of the New Testament?
-
There is a history of everything and the beginning to everything. And GOD says I am the alpha and the omega the beginning and the end, so it would be difficult to understand the end without understanding the beginning
-
It is difficult to understand who, where and what we are without knowing who, what, and where we came from
-
The old testament is where we find the base or platform of history and most importantly the knowledge of who God is and his character. Also how he relates to us, and love the for humanity through Jesus Christian his son and redeemer.
-
It would weaken our understanding because without it we wouldnt be able to see as much of the beauty and power god has and the reason we our how we our today
-
The old is the foundation of the entire bible.
