  1. Q6. Extra Credit. Whose character flaws most remind you of your own? Isaac's, Rebekah's, Esau's, or Jacob's? Why? How is God working to improve your character?

    Isaac, for I think he really knew what was happening, but he did not stop it. Like me I have backslid for a few years now

    and knew what was happening but did not stop it. I almost was to the point of thinking God would not have me back, and

    the only way I knew to come back was to come back through this Bible Study.

  2. Q1. Why does the New Testament condemn Esau for selling his birthright? (Hebrews 12:16-17) What did selling the birthright represent? What does this transaction say about Esau's character and values? What does it reveal bout Jacob's character and values?

    For selling his birthright was disrespectful, godless, it showed that Esau was selfish thinking only of himself and rejected his birthright

    Jacob is no better then Esau he took advantage of Esau

  3. So he would not forget to follow them. Fight the good fight is to follow the Lords ways in all you do to not deviate no matter what.

    Timothy might be tempted with ways of the false doctrine at the Church at Ephesus. Paul reminds Timothy to hold on to his faith in God and keep a good conscience to not wander away from the truth

  4. Results of false teaching in the church at Ephesus caused controversies by overdoing the law, by offering their own opinions and not revealing God message they did not Stress the importance of Christ death and resurrection.

    They devoted to much of their time to finding out where they came from and following man made laws.

    This controversies hurt the church by distorting the truth, leading the church down the wrong path in turn destroying the unity of the church

  5. Jesus bore the sins of the world, Jesus experienced a break in the relationship with God, in which was perfect before. Jesus done this for me, in order to empower, lead, and intercede for me. This gives me all the hope/encouragement I need to have faith/believe in Jesus the son of God. even though I will fall and feel I am not worthy, Jesus laying down His life for me takes that doubt away. I'm inspired to live for Christ
