Wednesday Night Study Sheet--Joshua 4

Main idea: The twelve stones of memorial.

1. Twelve men total--1 man from each tribe of Israel.

2. Take 12 stones from the Jordan Riverr, from the site of the priests' feet on dry land--Proof of God's work in halting the flow of the river.

3. The stones were set up and remained permanently in Gilgal as a perpetual reminder to all generations of Israel of God's power.

 

Study questions:

 

1. How many men were selected?

2. How many stones?

3. What was the reason for gathering, placing, and keeping the stones?

 

Challenge question (by Bro. Sid this time): Locate the New Testament scripture that addresses members of God's church as "living stones."
