BETH MOORE BIBLE STUDY BOOKS TRIAL

God manifested His glory in many physical and visible forms, such as manna, a cloudy pillar by day, and fire by night. The law was written upon external and visible tablets of stone. The ministry of the old covenant was in many ways primarily external in nature with secondarily internal repercussions. “…I want to center on one primary difference between the covenants and what 2 Corinthians 3 refers to as the Chapter 5, about avoiding the extremes of either cessationism or sensationalism, is particularly good. Moore consistently promotes a wise and biblical balance between denying miracles and demanding them. Not that there’s anything wrong with it.Įarly on in the book she refers to herself following a “Promised Land theology.” I started to worry that this was going to lead to some Joel Osteen-like focus on how the primary point of Christianity is receiving blessings from God and seeking “victory” through a life of comfort and financial well-being. She encourages her readers to recite these lines to themselves daily like some sort of mantra. Most of the book lays out the importance of understanding five main points: I’m not sure about the rest, but this one can certainly be appreciated by any believer. I suppose for too long I had just assumed that her books were for women only. 'All that will matter about our earthly lives when we receive our heavenly inheritance is whether we fulfilled our callings and allowed God to fulfill His promises.'Īfter reading Moore’s biography, All My Knotted-Up Life, earlier this year I thought I should try out one of the many other books she has written. 'the only way we are going to impact the world and the next generation is to prove that our faith in Christ is real and that it works.' I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is struggling with belief in God, who wants to renew their belief, or who wants to have a better explanation for non-believers for why they believe.įAVORITE QUOTES. I loved the 5 faith statement base for her study and found this book filled with gems that found their way into my devotional journal. This book really spoke to my heart and soul. REVIEW: This is my first Beth Moore bible study/devotional. Through the examples of believers like Abraham and Moses, who trusted God's promises, Beth encourages Christians of all ages to deepen their own trust in God, live out their faith and receive a fresh word from Him. SUMMARY: Join best-selling author and Bible teacher Beth Moore in her latest book as she explores what it means to know and truly believe God, not just to believe IN Him. This book will take you down a path that will literally change the way you pray, change the way you believe, and ultimately, change your life. Reading BELIEVING GOD is the first step in achieving that goal. Gods desire is for our belief system to work, for us to trust God, to trust His word, and to have absolutely no doubt in God’s ability to do what He said He would do, to be who He said He is, and to help us be all that we can be, in Him. Moore takes us through the Bible, showing us through example which biblical characters believed God and how they demonstrated it, and challenging us to follow their example. “You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he.” The core verse of this book-of the study-is Isaiah 43:10. Three years ago, the pastor’s wife in our church had this small group study, using the study guide and the DVD, and it is really life changing. I highly recommend this book, it will really challenge you to grow.ĭo you take God at His word, believing what He has told us, or do you just believe in His existence and the salvation He offers?

I really like the four key phrases Beth outlines in the book. It really helped me to reexamine my attitudes and break through the plateau I was on. That today's church has acheived salvation, but is underacheiving in reaching the 'promised land' God has to offer everyone. The basic premise of the book is a good one. Trying to read this was like trying to chew through leather - you really have to take your time and process it. I can see why all of Beth's books are turned into group bible studies.
