Catholic Doctrine Bible Study Jim Hawk

All Christians should want a closer relationship with God. Toward that end, we should all read the Bible! But there are so many conflicting interpretations that Bible study can be confusing or disheartening. Which church, if any, has the God-given authority to interpret the Bible? LISTEN to Session 1 FIRST to see why there can only be one answer to that question. In this study, you will see the doctrines of the Catholic Church come alive as we go through each book of the entire Bible from a uniquely Catholic perspective.

Session 240: Haggai, Zechariah 1-4 “Make Your Faith Your #1 Priority”
Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi are Postexilic prophets....they speak AFTER the people have been allowed to return from their Babylonian Exile.
Haggai: c.520BC - Though the people have returned, they have NOT rebuilt the Temple, partly due to outside influences, but also lack of proper priorities. See
Ezra 1-6 for background. Does God have priority in your life?
Zechariah: c.520BC (Same as Haggai above.) Chs1-4.... Return to God, there will be a New Jerusalem, we are the apple of God’s eye! We can have Hope!

Session 239: Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah “God Is Just, But Merciful, Offers Hope” and “It’s Ok To Gripe To God, But....."
Nahum: 612BC, just before Ninevah, the Capitol of Assyria, was destroyed by Babylon that year.
-God is just, but also merciful
-Destruction predicted for Assyria, HOPE for Judah.
Habakkuk: 605-597BC. Worry about Babylon. Is basically a gripe session to God, yet see 3:17-19 “I will rejoice in the Lord, my strength!”
Zephaniah-640-609BC (Just before Jeremiah and Habakkuk.) (See 2 Kings 22 for background.)
“The Day of the Lord”= Doom, judgment. But, HOPE (for Judah, and US!) 3:16-20.

Session 238: Micah
Timeline: 750-710BC, contemporary of Isaiah (Isaiah 1-39), but Chapters 4-7 probably added after the return from exile, which began in 538BC.
Distinctive Feature: The ruler, the shepherd of his people, will come from BETHLEHEM. (5:1-4) (See Mt. 2:1-5)
7:7 “But as for me, I will look to the Lord.” (See Joshua 24:15)
Again, as with most of the Prophets, it offers hope for the future.
