The Book of Deuteronomy records Moses’ final messages to the people of Israel as they prepare to move into the Promised Land. He presented a challenge to a new generation of Israelite who had experienced the Egyptian captivity or God’s miraculous acts of deliverance on their behalf (that generation died during the wilderness wandering). God is presented as being compassionate to His people, while calling them to live a life that reflects His character. Moses warned the Hebrews of the consequences of failing to follow God’s standards.
This January Bible Study will identify ways God continues to call His people to be set apart and holy, reflecting His character. Adults will be reminded that only through Christ can the curse of sin be broken and that they are called to reflect God’s holiness. Adults will also realize that God is both compassionate (love) and holy, with both working in total harmony.
