Encourage People To Listen And Grow Closer To God
Topic: bible study
Paper details: Ezekiel did some pretty weird symbolic actions –lying on one side or the other for 430 days, eating bread cooked on cow dung, digging through the wall of his mud hut. Do you think people paid attention to what he was trying to say or were they just amused by him? What should sermons and Bible studies be like today in order to encourage people to listen and grow closer to God? write your own Psalm and/or Proverb (just a poetic expression or an expression of wisdom – not claiming to be equal to Scripture). Label them with what type of Psalm and/or Proverb they are and make them at least 4 sentences. What is a time in your life where you most identified with Job? What did you learn from it that will sustain you through future times of difficulty?Answer the following three sets of questions in a good paragraph of 4 to 5 sentences for each set of questions. 1. To me Habakkuk 3:17-19 is one of the greatest passages in the Bible about faith. Basically Habakkuk says that God does not have to reward him or pay him for having faith in Him. If things go great, that’s good. If things go terribly, that’s fine too. Habakkuk will have faith in, worship, and serve God no matter what is happening in his life. Lots of television preachers talk about how God will bless people materially if they follow Him and, of course, give to their ministry program. That is called “prosperity theology.” We give to God and God is obligated to give to us, especially with material blessings, wealth, and health. What do you think about “prosperity theology?” Are people who follow God always blessed with wealth and health? How do you think those who follow God are blessed by Him? 2. The Valley of the Dry Bones (Ezekiel 37) is a great passage. When Ezekiel preaches the bones come together; muscle, flesh, and skin cover them; but they are still inanimate corpses. It is only when God’s Spirit enters them that they live. How does this relate to the creation story in Genesis 2? How does this relate to the resurrection of the dead that Christians believe in? 3. When we read the Book of Job, we focus on what Job lost as if he is the only victim in the narrative. But when the four servants report to Job that his possessions are gone and his children are dead, that means there was a lot of collateral death. Servants were caring for those possessions and serving Job’s children and they died too. Wives lost husbands. Children lost fathers and perhaps mothers too. Fathers and mothers lost adult children. Job had a lot of servants to care for what he had so several thousand could have died. That is a lot of death just to test one person’s faith. What do you think about this? Did God go overboard? We can say and often do that God can do whatever He wants, but does that mean that whatever He does is good and moral? God has given us a sense of morality and what is right and wrong. How do we understand God when He seems to contradict what He tellryls us to do and not to do?
