Is This the Same God?
Text: 1 Samuel 15:1-3
- Why do you think some believers tend to be conflicted when they read the Old Testament? Intellectually, what is the remedy for that? (See Word from the Pastor)
- If someone says, “I cannot see how a just God could ever countenance the slaughter of innocent people, especially children”, how would you answer?
- If someone declares, “I could never worship a God who is thus and thus or this and that,” how might we respond?
- If someone suggests that Jesus Christ is vastly different from the God of the Old Testament, is that really true? Why?
