Exodus: Let My People Go
The second act of God's plan of redemption
- - - - -
A broad overview of the Old Testament in which we'll look at three things from each passage:
1) what the passage tells us about God
2) what the passage tells us about ourselves
3) how it points to our Savior
If the goal of our discipleship is conformity to Christ, then the way we approach God’s Word should reflect that goal. Rather than reading Scripture asking, “What am I supposed to do?” we would do better asking, “What am I to become?” The only way we can truly discover what we are to become is by gazing upon the person of Jesus, for it is through beholding the glory of the Lord, that we are transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another (2 Corinthians 3:18). And the place we behold the light of the knowledge of the glory of God is in the face of Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 4:6).
Now if Jesus doesn’t show up until the New Testament, you and I have a serious problem with what we are to do with the first four-fifths of this book, the Bible. Because the only way we are conformed to Christ’s image is by gazing upon him. So, either the greater part of the Old Testament is irrelevant to us as Christians (which we know is not the case) or since all Scripture is indeed profitable to make us complete (2 Timothy 3:16-17), Jesus must be visible within the pages of the Old Testament just as he is in the New. Jesus is not just visible in a mere smattering of passages sprinkled throughout the Old Testament but is vividly displayed in every text. We just need to learn how to look for him.
That is the goal of our current study: Finding Jesus in the Old Testament: How Every Passage Points to Christ. Join us Sunday mornings at 10am at Grace Bible Church as we walk through the opening chapters of Exodus, looking for Jesus.

A Brief Series in Apologetics:
Christianity is not only a reasonable faith, it is the only worldview that faithfully makes sense of the evidence. To not believe God's clear revelation is to willfully close one's eyes to the truth God has made plain for all. Apologetics is not so much an attempt to get people to believe something they don't already know as much as it exposes our love for darkness. Apologetics strengthens the church by reminding her that her faith is built on the most solid footing of all - the person and work of Jesus Christ, the one who is truth itself.
