Jacob was not a nice guy, he was sneaky, he was hard and focused on himself. Many don't like that image of Jacob because they feel like we are speaking badly about God when we confront the facts of Jacob. But the truth is that Jacob needed God to make him ready to come back to his home. The LORD knew all this about Jacob, and God still chose him and used him as he has chosen and uses us! The truth about our culture is not a commentary on
how great we are, but how weak we are as people. It is God alone who can and will help us in our destruction. Remember the words of Psalm 107:20, He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Keep in mind that we are reading the story of Jacob's life becoming transformed and changed. People do not change, but with God's Holy Spirit, everything changes.
We are a family-run international ministry with television, print and online programs designed to guide you through the Bible in one year.
From social issues and apologetics to theology, history and science, our mission is to educate, edify and encourage the believer to actively engage with God's Word in all ways.
