So far we have looked at God's nature. We have seen the crowning glory of His Creation, Man. We have looked at Sin, and why everything is so screwed up. Now...now, we get to God's answer for redeeming all of history for His Glory.
This week's Bible Study and Cru will focus on Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was a historical person. He is fully man, fully God. Through Jesus Christ, we receive the righteousness Christ and he takes the sinfulness of us. All in all, it's a heck of a deal for you and me.
We are going to do a Bible Study written by Dr. Bill Bright, the founder of Campus Crusade. This is the first in a series called, "10 Basic Steps to Christian Maturity." The Bible Study is completely web based. Go to the link, look up the scripture (you just have to click on it and it pops up!), and answer the questions. At the end, it will ask for your name and email. Put your name and email address. Click send. You Bible Study and answers will be emailed to your inbox. Print it off and take that to Bible Study. It's that simple. If you get stumped, call your Bible Study leader. If you're a Bible Study leader and you're stumped, call Donny.
The Uniqueness of Jesus Christ
Sorry, there's no leader's guide this week.
Jesus is the Glory of God - John Piper - This article comes from chapter 2 of his book, Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ. It is a short but rich look at Jesus Christ. The whole book is wonderful and can be ordered at John Piper's website, Desiring God.
Jesus' Unique Claims about Himself - Greg Koukl - This comes from Stand to Reason, a ministry that specializes in apologetics and defending the faith. It is more an outline than an article, but still quite helpful.
Christ is not valued at all unless He is valued above all.-- Augustine
