Questions About God


 Teachers know that questions provide teachable moments. Thus wise teachers ask questions of their pupils, and they eagerly take advantage of opportunities when pupils ask questions.
 The Bible is filled with questions. God asked questions, and people asked question. Sometimes they asked God Himself and sometimes they asked others. Moses asked God to tell him His name, and God revealed His personal name (Exodus 3:13-14). Habakkuk asked God why He allowed evil people to get by with their sins, and God revealed some off His ways (Habakkuk 1:2). Jesus asked the disciples, "Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?" Their answer set up the next crucial question, "But whom say ye that I am?" (Matthew 16:13,15). The living Lord asked Saul of Tarsus, "Why persecutest thou me?" Saul then asked, "Who art thou, Lord?" and the answer led him tot ask a second question, "What shall I do, Lord?" (Acts 22:7-10). The answers changed Saul's life and the course of Christianity.
 
 Today's adults and their families are living in spiritually confusing times. Interest in spiritual things is high. Most people have more questions than answers. A wide variety of answer is being given, many of which are false and misleading. The fact that people are asking questions is a great opportunity to look to God's Word for answers. Only there will we find the real answers.
