    This is a more in-depth study than the one we did in Genesis. It is only on chapter 1 of Exodus, and covers the period the Israelites were in captivity in Egypt.

    As the book of EXODUS begins, the Israelites are being held as slaves in Egypt. And when the time is ready for God to lead them out of Egypt, He calls a man named Moses to free them. EXODUS is a story of how God protected His people by breaking the chains to captivity they were held under. ...read more

    We conclude Roman 7 - the experience of a devout man under the Law trying to keep the Law - but always being defeated. Finally, victory in in the Lord Jesus. Chapter 7 is not a Christian battling sin. The Christian is NOT in this chapter. To say so has confused the whole matter.
