Overview and Objectives
From the days of Moses, the Bible predicted events no one wanted to believe. Before Israel went into the Promised Land, Moses predicted that Israel would be unfaithful, that she would lose the land God was giving her, and that she would be dispersed throughout all the world, re-gathered, and then re-established (Deuteronomy 28-31). Central to Old Testament prophecy was the promise of a Messiah who would save God’s people from their sins and eventually bring judgment and peace to the whole world.
When you complete this lesson, you should be able to do the following:
- Explain why each new pain makes this world less inviting and the next life more appealing.
- Identify why thoughts of heaven produce feelings of peace in the suffering believer.
As you proceed through this lesson have the following question in mind.
What are the evidences of the aging process that are part of your current season of life? How do they impact your life view?
