Moses and the Burning Bush

It was many decades ago when I first read R.C. Sproul’s book, the Holiness of God (It’s great to re-read this Kindle version). I was a young Christian believer and the book had a profound impact upon me. This book will not leave a person in the middle. It will either draw us closer to God or drive us from Him. Make no mistake about this, God is holy! His being is without flaw, yet His desire is to draw people to Him through His Son Jesus who is the Christ. Just as Moses was commissioned to redeem and restore Israel to God, so Jesus does, our Redeemer and Deliverer. RC, who is now enjoying the presence of God, wrote a masterpiece in the Holiness of God. By doing so, he not only served us well but even more so served His Lord well.

Was used in bible study.

These 33 pages are not lectures as the description says. They do not contain a word penned by Sproul. Yes, a study guide, but nothing by Sproul. I am returning as falsely described.

Great if you are a bible student

All I can say is WOW. What an amazing book! Because we have an amazing and awesome God!Dr. Sproul really knows the beauty and power of God and spells it out clearly in this book. Although it's mainly about Moses and his encounter with God in the burning bush, Dr. Sproul also covers other theophanies of God's Shekinah glory. He writes about God's immanence (nearness to us) and transcendence (that He's above and beyond our scope) and that He alone is holy.Rather than go through the book for you, as others have done already, I'm just going to say get it and read it and be ready and open to adding a totally new dimension of your perception of God and consequently your walk with Him.I received this book from the publisher through NetGalley with no requirement for a positive review, but I can think of no other type of review to give!

Moses and the Burning Bush, by R. C. Sproul, is a rich and eloquent account of Moses’ encounter with God in the burning bush. In Dr. Sproul’s usual inimitable style, he lays open the rich meaning of this mysterious event by disclosing the personality, character and transcendence of God Himself. As Sproul writes, “...the theophany in which God appeared to Moses—the transcendent majesty of God was partially unveiled.” In His interaction with Moses, God reveals not only His majesty but His mercy. The great I AM establishes a covenant with Moses that will lead to the redemption of sinful man.Sproul’s joy in his subject matter is evident throughout this simple, easy to read book. A reworking of an older Bible study series by Dr. Sproul, Moses and the Burning Bush is a must have for anyone who wishes to be reminded of who God is and why we worship him.

RC Sproul was an amazing preacher and writer! He took scriptures that could be difficult and breaks them down into easy to follow and understand explanations. This book is one of many and it was excellent. As another reviewer stated, the take-home points are God’s transcendence and immanence. But, it obviously goes deeper than that. I like that it is not too wordy, but is packed full of information.I voluntarily reviewed this book from a complimentary e-copy. I don’t always review books with 5 stars, but this one was great!

An in depth look at God's transcendence and immanence, as exposed in the narrative of Moses' meeting with God.Sproul does a good job looking at the text and relating it to us as usual, and everyone is bound to learn a thing or two from this book.

An excellent small exposition on the subject of Moses
