"Short Study of the Old Testament" was written as a result of a weekly Bible Study with my Congregation at Wesley United Methodist Church in Arlington Texas to encourage them to read and study the Old Testament for guidance, comfort and strength in their daily Christian life.

Produktbeschreibung
"Short Study of the Old Testament" was written as a result of a weekly Bible Study with my Congregation at Wesley United Methodist Church in Arlington Texas to encourage them to read and study the Old Testament for guidance, comfort and strength in their daily Christian life. Believing that the stories and people in the Old Testament serve as examples for believers today, my intent of writing this book is to give a short explanation of the main gist of each of the 39 books of the Old Testament to help the reader to have a fair understanding of each book and to start reading the Old Testament with new interest and excitement. By reading the Old Testament, I hope readers will understand the New Testament better because all the teachings and events in the Old Testament give us the background to all that happened when Jesus was born and during his life. For example, understanding the Old Testament' sacrifices sheds light on what Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross means. It is my hope that readers will enjoy this Short Study of the Old Testament and therefore become better Christians through obedience to the LORD. My sincere thanks and gratitude to all my Bible Study students at Wesley United Methodist Church, the Church leaders and my devoted ministerial staff Rev Kate Thompson and Mrs Eno Afon ( Candidate for Ordained Ministry) for their support, commitment and service to the Lord at Wesley United Methodist Church, Arlington Texas. Grace, peace, love and God's blessings to you all.
