Exodus- The God Who Saves
“The God Who Saves” – An Exposition of Exodus 1–15
Core Theme / Big Idea
The God revealed in Jesus is the covenant-keeping Redeemer who delivers His people through judgment and blood.
Why This Fits After John
John presents Jesus as:
- The Lamb of God (John 1:29)
- The Passover fulfillment (John 19)
- The “I AM” (John 8:58)
Exodus gives the historical and theological foundation that John assumes.
Book Choice & Justification
Exodus 1–15
These chapters form the redemptive backbone of the Old Testament:
- Bondage
- Deliverer
- Blood of the lamb
- Passing through waters
- Glory revealed
John’s Gospel is saturated with Exodus imagery.
