Study the Bible in Two Years

Thursday – Zephaniah 3

1.  The Lord talks about his jealous anger, 3:8, also 1:18.  What is human “jealousy” in a sinful sense?   How could this possibly apply to God who is sinless?   (Hint:  If the Lord is like our husband, how does he feel when we go after other gods?)

2. Zephaniah is not all wrath and judgment.  Pick out all the verses in 3:9-20 which give us wonderful promises of God’s grace.  Even though Jesus is not mentioned directly, which of these verses are only possible because of him?

3.  Even in the face of the coming judgment on the whole world, how will a true believer react because that day is a day of salvation for us?  See 3:14.
