G1 How does the Bible emphasize God's care for orphans? Look into passages that highlight God's compassion and protection for orphans. For example, Psalm 68:5 states, "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling."
G2 Are there specific instructions in the Bible regarding the treatment of orphans? Explore verses that provide guidance on how society and individuals should care for orphans. James 1:27 is an example, stating, "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress."
G3 How does the concept of adoption relate to God's relationship with believers in the Bible? Investigate passages that draw parallels between God adopting believers into His family and the human act of adopting orphans. Ephesians 1:5 is one such verse that mentions believers being predestined for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ.
G4 Can you find instances in the Bible where God directly intervenes on behalf of orphaned individuals? Explore narratives or stories where God plays a significant role in the lives of orphans. For example, the story of Moses in Exodus depicts God's intervention in the life of an abandoned child.
G5 What is the significance of the term "Father to the fatherless" in the Bible? Examine the theological implications of God being described as a Father to the fatherless. Consider how this title reflects God's character and the relationship He desires with those who lack earthly parental care.
