did for us preaching the gospel all the
time
every week means that from genesis to
revelation you realize the whole
bible is one unfolding story of god's
love and saving grace and mercy towards
sinners in jesus christ
jesus said in matthew 5 that the whole
bible is about him
and luke records for us that jesus
taught them
all the things concerning himself
from the law the prophets and the
writings which were the threefold way of
describing
the whole hebrew bible of the old
testament now either he was a
megalomaniac
or he is who he said he was and the
whole bible is about jesus
well i don't know about you but if i'm a
follower of jesus i want to follow jesus
understanding of the old testament
therefore if we explain
any text in isolation from him
we fail to say the very thing
that he said it's about he said it's
about him if you're preaching about
daniel and it's dare to be a daniel
it's not about jesus if you're preaching
the book of revelation and it's about
israel and russia
then it's not about jesus though jesus
isn't the content of the whole bible
he's the
center of it all in other words
not every story every little thing is
about jesus or can be
an analogy for him and yet it all points
towards him and his work he's the
pinnacle so
the message of the bible is that god
will save his people
so any point you drop into habakkuk or
second timothy
you know any point you drop into isaiah
or deuteronomy
it's going to be connected somehow to
this main trunk road
of the good news of what god is doing in
our world
whether you start in genesis 3 and you
talk about
god making a promise that he would crush
the serpent through the seat of the
woman well what's the rest of the book
of genesis
it's the story of that seed through the
woman
and that's why so many people get bogged
down by genealogies and
what are these genealogy is about this
is why the new testament opens with a
genealogy and showing you that the seed
has come in the person of jesus
and so if you can't see the cross in the
story of joseph telling you
what you meant for evil god meant for
good i mean that's the cross right there
in a metaphor
well then you're really missing the
whole unity of the bible and i think
that's probably if you wanted to put it
what we're denying what's one of our
problems it's that we're missing that
the bible was written by one author
and that therefore the author has a
unified story that he's telling
even though there's different human
authors they're all inspired by the holy
spirit Subtitles End: mo.dbxdb.com
