Bible Animals And The Lessons Taught By Them

"We enter now on a new course of sermons for the young. The subject of these sermons will be Bible Natural History. We shall take up one after another of the different beasts and birds mentioned in the Bible, and, in their habits and characters, try to find illustrations of some of the truths taught us in the Bible, and of the duties that spring out of these truths." -from the Author "Just the thing to put into the hands of the young folks. Dr. Newton is a prince among writers to the young." - The British Weekly

"Life Lessons from Animals in the Bible" can be used as a personal devotion book or as a class lesson book for youth or adults. Think about it, if God cared enough to not only create but to mention animals by name in the Bible, there must be important lessons God wants us to learn from animals. In I Corinthians the question is asked "Doth not nature itself teach you..." Nature can teach us many lessons. Job 12:6 says, "Ask now the beasts and they shall tell thee." We will learn through out this book that animals always obeyed God even when humans would not, and that God used the creatures of the earth to help take down nations. We will be looking at how animals were used by God, and how God compared animal characteristics to humans actions. Now, let us take a look at and learn from the animal kingdom.
