Direction Student: God is Sovereign

Rate this book
The study of this quarter examines the sovereignty of God and of Jesus Christ, culminating with a close look at the vision of God’s plan at the end of the age. The material from Isaiah and Hebrews highlights the sovereign position of the Father and the Son over the universe and how that affects the lives of the believer, while the material from Revelation unveils God’s sovereignty over final events and the end results of His eternal plan.
UNIT 1 • The Sovereignty of God
The four lessons in this unit explore how the prophet Isaiah views the reign of God over the whole world through discussing a peaceful kingdom, a mountain of God, the foundations of the earth, and a new and everlasting covenant.
UNIT 2 • The Sovereignty of Jesus
The five lessons in this unit study the images of the reign of the resurrected Christ from the letter to the Hebrews. In these lessons, Jesus is described as the imprint of God, the owner of a household, the great High Priest, Priest forever, and the Pioneer and Perfecter of our faith.
UNIT 3 • Alpha and Omega
The four lessons in this unit are based on the last two chapters of the book of Revelation. In these lessons, John uses metaphors of one who makes all things new, a vision of a New Jerusalem, a river of life, and the beginning and the end of all things to explore how God reigns.
