Genesis & Job, Answers to the Big Questions of Life, Part Two

by

Answers to the Big Questions of life PART TWO This lesson continues our study of the Big Questions of Life by examining answers found in Genesis and Job. We learn that God is our Creator and therefore the foundation for our purpose and meaning in life. We also gain a clearer understanding of Satan—his origin, limitations, and methods of deception. Finally, Job provides one of the Bible’s earliest and clearest affirmations of life after death and bodily resurrection, giving believers hope that extends beyond this life. Through Job’s experiences, we are reminded that God remains sovereign, even in suffering, and that our ultimate future is secure in Him.

Check out the lessons on Answers to the Big Questions of Life, from Genesis and Job for answers to the tough challenges of life.

This post is from Answers to the Big Questions of Life from Genesis and Job, Part One

Key verse: “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell me, if you know so much.” Job 38:4, TLB

One of the worst things in life is being deceived about something important—if we think someone loves us and we find out they don’t; if we think a job we love isn’t what thought it would be; if we find out we aren’t the person we thought we were—believing something important and then finding out we were wrong can be devastating.

That reality is vitally true with our relationship to God. We must believe the correct things about Him for our walk with Him to make sense and for us to make the right decisions in how we follow Him. Sadly, many of the teachings today, even in the church, focus on simply what will make us feel good and if God doesn’t make us feel good or do what we want Him to do, many get mad and walk away.

Our lesson series on Genesis and Job was created to help you gain a clearer picture of what to expect in your relationship with Him. The three foundational truths I’m about to share, if looked at alone, can appear harsh and even cruel at times. But it is important to remember that wrapped up in every hard concept of God, everything that is difficult to understand, or a trial we are given to endure, comes from a God who is, above all things LOVE.

Answers to the Big Questions of Life from Genesis and Job – Part One: Introduction, Overview, Authorship and Dating of Both Books

by

Gen & Job, Part OneThis lesson introduces the foundational questions that will be explored throughout the Genesis and Job series. It begins with the central truth that the Bible is God’s story, revealing His creation, His purposes, and His answers to life’s most important questions. The lesson explains why Genesis and Job are placed together in a chronological study of the Bible and why understanding them correctly provides an essential foundation for understanding both the Bible and life.

Special attention is given to the authorship and dating of Genesis and Job. The lesson presents historical, geographical, traditional, and biblical evidence supporting Moses as the author or compiler of both books and affirms that Job was a real historical person. Throughout the lesson, three foundational truths emerge: God’s sovereignty over all things, the non-transactional nature of our relationship with God, and the reality of an unseen spiritual world.
