Isaiah 63-64

1. When you think of your father, what are the first pictures that come to your mind?

2. When you think of Jesus, what is the first picture that comes to your mind? How do you see Him? Describe that picture as best you can.

3. Read Isa. 63:1-6. What are your first impressions? Do any initial questions come to mind?

4. What’s the deal with Edom and Bozrah? Who does Edom represent?

5. As a group, reread these verses and jot down phrases that describe this One coming from Edom. To Whom is this passage portraying?

6. Read Revelation 19:11-18. How does this picture of Jesus compare or contrast with the one that first came to your mind?

7. What are some of the benefits of a more complete picture of Jesus? What are some downfalls of emphasizing His love and mercy and excluding His anger, wrath, power, and judgment?

8. As a result of the message and this group discussion, how is God calling you to apply this passage? Is there something you should do differently, an attitude that needs to change, or some other point of application?

9. Close in prayer, worshipping Jesus, the One Who is both the Lion and the Lamb.
