October 15-16

Here the author of the Daily Bible, which we have been using to chronologically read through the Old Testament, gives his synopsis and then talks about the Apocrypha.

My synopsis is this – WOW – does God love us or what! We spent most of the last months learning about God’s judgment and Job’s troubles, but we ended with the rebuilding of the temple, the wall, the city of God and the re-institution of the law and the sacrifices. I am more convinced than ever that God just wants someone to be His friend and walk with Him. As well, I am convinced that we have to walk in the manner of life that HE has chosen. It really isn’t unlike our human relationships. Who wants to be in relationship with a person who keeps cheating on you and ignoring the fact that you are there for them, to help them, to fellowship with them and to deliver them. The covenant teaching we are hearing in Boot Camp is really bringing this home at a whole new level.

We now embark on the answer – the answer to the Jews question – after 400 years of silence for the most part – where is the deliverer? He is coming – His name is Jesus! I can’t wait to read the New Testament and get a deeper revelation into God! I hope you will read through with me!
