Portraits of Christ from the Epistle to the Hebrews (Paperback)

A ten-week, personal, daily Bible study from Hebrews 11 with a weekly group study application. I'm sure you've seen 'em...When you first look at the page, all you can see is a blur of mysterious and meaningless shapes, patterns, and colours. Then, after you've stared at the designs until your eyes start to water and cross, suddenly a picture leaps off the page at you - a pony or a porpoise or a parakeet. If you like, the Old Testament is a puzzle containing a 3-D picture. At first, all you can see is a blur of mysterious, meaningless, or boring "begats," "thou shalts," and "thou shalt nots." But after you stare at the Book until your eyes water and cross, a picture leaps off the pages at you. And that picture is a portrait - a portrait of the God-Man, Jesus Christ. The book of Hebrews is like a pair of lenses that helps the eyes adjust to see the portraits of Christ in the Old Testament. This ten-week Bible Study focuses on the Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, giving the reader an overview of the Old Testament stories and characters. You'll come away realizing that the Old Testament may still be a Book of puzzles and mysteries...but meaningless and boring it's not Each of the ten weeks of lessons contains five, daily, personal lessons and one, weekly, group-study application with a review outline and discussion questions. Daily lessons require a time investment of thirty to forty-five minutes each day.
