The Old Testament is the story of God reaching out in love to a rebellious people. Why is this significant?

God reaching out in love to a rebellious people is significant because it shows how much He loves His people, it shows His redemption and grace and how patient He is with us.

Knowing that all scripture is inspired by God and not the opinions of ordinary men’s imaginations, gives us the trust to believe in what the Bible teaches. God created us for the purpose of fellowship with Him. Wherever God is, sin is not. The Bible gives us instructions on how to live righteous lives so that we can fellowship with God.

Because all have sinned and we do not deserve the love of God but yet He loves us so much that he gave His only son to die for our sins.

God’s love for His people stretches a great way; even when we rebel, he gives us a chance to make right with Him. If we learn to accept Jesus’ sacrifice for us, then we can repair the bridge between us and our Creator, our Father.

Because it shows that he is a gracious and loving God as well as it sets the stage for the sending of His only begotten Son to be the ultimate sacrifice for a fallen and sinful people. It shows how much He desires to have a right relationship with His people.
