In Jesus, God Fulfills His Promises Throughout his Gospel, Matthew takes us back to the Old Testament over and over again to remind us of all that God promised. Since the Fall, humanity had been waiting, hoping for a way back to the Garden, back to life with God and God with us. In Jesus, God fulfills His promises and shows us the way. Matthew will walk you through Jesus’ most famous teachings—in both word and deed—showing you what it means to live with Him now so you can live with Him forever.
Most Bible study books I've read in groups have gone something like this—
"God so loved the world that…"
1. What did God love? 2. How much did he love it, a little or a lot?
This is why I tend to eschew adult Sunday School and women's Bible studies. But I'm back in the saddle again. Thankfully, this series goes a bit beyond that, although there are traces of the "answer the obvious" questions. It's fairly in depth, as far as these things go, with some historical background and lots of questions, but too many of the questions involve the typical, "And what did that verse we just told you to read say?"
All of the books in this series are solid theologically and ask good questions. Its the best single series I've personally used for introducing a book along with its purpose and who it was written to (if its an epistle) and why it was written. Very good stuff.
