LESSON: The Golden Calf What does this Bible passage teach us about who God is? Like any lover, he is a jealous God. He fiercely demands that his people worship him alone, in his way. Good news! How is this aspect of God revealed—most fully—in Jesus? Jesus calls for his followers’ entire lives to be wholly devoted to him. He’s so jealous for us to be his alone that he died to redeem us from the devil. Believe it! How does believing this good news change how we live? When we know how much Jesus longs to be with us forever, it makes us yearn to be with him too.
