1. What type of vision is essential to our salvation?
Answer: This is a reference to Spiritual Vision. Sad to say few so-called Christians have a vision, and do not know they will be lost without Spiritual vision.
2. Why is it essential that we grow in grace and knowledge? II Peter 3:18.
Note: There is no neutral place in Christian life. Those that do not grow in knowledge of the Lord, are in a dying condition. Therefore, the prophet says: where there is no vision the people perish.
3. What vision did Jacob have? Genesis 28:12-14.
4. Who was the only man able to interpret Pharaoh’s dream? Genesis 41:14-16 & Genesis 41:25.

6. How did the Lord speak to Israel? Genesis 46:2-3.
