These thirty lessons will help us move from “What do I believe?” or “What does my church teach?” to “What does God say?”
From youth to adults, we can learn from God’s Word every day and simply believe what God says. As you read through the Bible and these lessons, you can form a habit of feeding on God’s Word every day and growing in Him.

But the Jesus we find in Revelation and some portions of the Gospels leads an army of angels bent on earthly destruction. Which is the true revelation of the Messiah—and how can both be in the same Bible?

Hesed: Does the Tanakh Foreshadow Jesus?
by Mark Stouffer
KINDLE BARGAIN #ad
WHILE arguing with the Jewish religious leaders, Jesus said, “You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is these that bear witness of Me; . . .”
In this series of books we will examine the Tanakh in order to see if Jesus’ claim has any merit.
In Hesed we will consider if the sacrificial system prescribed in the Torah prefigures Jesus’ death on the cross. We will do so by asking such root level questions as:
Why did the Jews need to sacrifice lambs at the first Passover in order to be exempt from G-d’s judgement? After all, they were the victims in this event of slavery and oppression.
Why did the High Priest need to immediately exit G-d’s presence once he sprinkled the blood in the Holy of Holies? Didn’t the blood atone for his sins on Yom Kippur? et.al.
We will also examine the lives of Joseph, Moses, David, and Daniel. For, there are some noticeable similarities between their lives and Jesus’ life. The question is, were these details purposely inserted in the Tanakh to foreshadow Jesus, or is this just a coincidence?
