Bulletin outline:

By faith Moses' parents hid him for three months after he was born,
because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid
of the king's edict. - Hebrews 11:23

"Living Faith in a Hostile World"
Hebrews 11:23; Exodus 1:1-2:10

I. The faith of Moses' parents, Amram and Jochebed, teaches us that true
saving faith:

1. Is not quenched, even in a hostile world (Exo. 1:8; Heb. 11:23)

2. Obeys God over government when necessary (Exodus. 1:15-2:4;
   Acts 4:19, 5:29)

3. Expresses itself creatively in every way possible (Exodus 2:2-4, 7)

II. Applications:

1. God rewards obedience, even in this life (Exodus 1:20-21; 2:9). The
   reward is based on the obedience of Christ and His work on our
   behalf

2. We are to praise God for all His work, including providence and
   redemption (Exodus 2:3-6)

3. We are to strive to have faith like that of Moses' parents, and others
   in "the cloud of witnesses" who have gone before, focusing always
   on Christ alone (Hebrews 12:1-3)
