Samuel: An Eternal Throne Established
- Who’s Going to Build the House?
- The People in Need of a King
- God’s Indefectible Grace
Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:
- Read 2 Samuel 7:1-17. Why does David want to build God a “house”? Why does Nathan support David without reservation (v. 3)?
- Compare God’s response in verses 5-7 with Acts 17:24-25. What do we learn about God from these verses? How is God rebuking David?
- What kind of “house” will the Lord make for David (v. 11)? How are the promises to David related to the promises of the people in verse 10?
- In what ways does Solomon fulfill these promises? In what ways does Jesus fulfill them?
- In verse 15 God promises that his steadfast love will never depart from David’s descendent. What do we learn about the faithfulness of God’s grace from these verses?
