Study Aids:
We see in this study a lesson of faith. Abraham trusted in God’s promise, and God counted that as righteousness. But the promise made to Abraham was fulfilled when Jesus came. Is there still another promise from God for us to look forward to?
Do you conclude that both the Old Testament and New Testament churches have ultimately put their faith in God’s promises? What is the ultimate promise?
Are there still things that we can do to insure that God’s promise will be fulfilled for us? Something that we can do to become a “better Christian” and more deserving of God’s blessing?
Do you agree with the statement in the lesson: “This is one thing we can be sure of, when we try to play God, we will mess it up badly.” Can you think of some examples where this has occurred?
