LifeBuilder Bible Study

How can I be sure God is really there? Why isn't my prayer answered? If you struggle with uncertainties related to faith, you are in good company in the Bible. Many of God's leaders let us down by apparently abandoning their trust in God at key points in their story. And yet some of the least likely people demonstrate amazing faith in the midst of crisis. What can we learn from these experiences that will make our faith in God more confident?
Images of Christ (Lifebuilder Study Guides)
by Dale Larsen and Sandy Larsen
Published 11 January 2007
A study of 10 scriptural images given to Christ - Shepherd, Lamb of God, Suffering Servant, Branch, Vine, Light of the World, Bridegroom, Head of the Church, Bread of Life, Cornerstone. Some of these come from the Old Testament, others are word-pictures that Jesus himself used. The focus of each session is on the relationship with the reality behind the image: eg the Good Shepherd remains only a sentimental picture if we do not follow him; Christ is our Cornerstone only if we allow ourselves to be built into his house. The studies in this book are:
Good Shepherd (John 10:1-18) Lamb of God (Revelation 5:6-14) Suffering Servant (Isaiah 52:13-53:6) Branch (Isaiah 11:1-9) True Vine (John 15:1-8) Light of the World (John 1:1-9) Bridegroom (Ephesians 5:25-33) Head of the Church (Colossians 1:15-20) Bread of Life (John 6:25-51) Cornerstone (1 Peter 2:4-8)
