Scriptures: Joshua 2, Joshua 6:22-25, Ephesians 2:1-10, Hebrews 11:6 & 21, James 2:24-26
Rahab’s faith was in the God of heaven and earth and she was considered righteous because she acted on that faith. She was made right with God. In each of these mentions, she is still called Rahab the prostitute. Why? Surely she was much more than that. But I wonder if it’s an intentional reminder of where she came from. What she was saved from. Who she was before she was rescued and given a brand new life? Thanks be to God that we are made right with him by His grace, no matter where we have come from or what we have done.
1. How do you see God’s hand of protection and provision for Rahab? For the Spies? For the Isrealites?
2. How did Rahab demonstrate her faith?
3. How do grace, faith, and works come together in your life? How are you demonstrating your faith through good works?
