"Moses is the outstanding man in the OT. We might consider him to be the OT counterpart to the Apostle Paul. Our study in Moses’ life is important because, only of

Moses, is it said that God spoke to him face-to-face as a man would a friend. Now, that doesn’t mean that Moses sat down and saw God’s face; it means only that God spoke to Moses as though He were sitting down with a friend, like you and me speaking to one another. For that reason, let’s look to Moses’ life to learn how we can hear from God—BY FAITH— because all of us should desire to be remembered in exactly the same way."

''God is going to present inexcusable evidence against the Israelites on the condition of their hardened hearts. So now God asks them to be honest with both themselves and with Him."

"It has always been true that people misunderstand God’s kingdom on earth. People—then and now—view it as though something is going to happen to them. Jesus explains that it is something that happens in them. As we prepare our hearts for this Bible study, let’s ask the Lord to help us understand how the Kingdom of God can occur right here, right now."

"I have told you many times that faith comes from passion—passion for Jesus. I want to look at 2 incidents from Joseph’s life (in this study) to see how passion responds by

faith even when we are treated unfairly. Really bad breaks characterized Joseph’s life, yet he triumphed over circumstances much more difficult, much more unfair, than anything we have endured ourselves. This lesson on faith answers every ‘it’s not fair’ excuse we’ve ever made."

"The infinite love of God is on display here. We could hardly blame Him had He decided to forsake the idol worshipping Israelites. But God always keeps His promises and is faithful even when we are not.."
