Isaac, Jacob & Joseph

The Hebrew Bible’s Importance:

1. The Old Testament is Jesus’ bible!
2. It is part of the unified story that is ALL ABOUT JESUS!

   • 2 Timothy 3:14-17

Hebrews 11:20-22

Three threads that tie these three acts together:

1. From men of prominence.
2. At the end of their lives
3. Blessed others not with what they had to offer, but with what God had to offer

Living by faith isn’t about your prominence. It’s about God’s promises.
Your bad works aren’t keeping you from God’s promises.
Your good works aren’t getting you God’s promises.
