Christ is the central figure of Christianity. It follows that He is also the central figure of Christian Scripture. As such, all Scripture testifies of Him. This point is almost unanimously accepted among Evangelicals. The disagreements begin to appear when we discuss how Scripture testifies of Christ. This is particularly true concerning the Old Testament. In his book, Preaching Christ from the Old Testament, Pastor Brad Creech examines three popular approaches. They are the “First Testament Priority Approach”, the “Redemptive-Historical, Christocentric Approach”, and the “...

A Two Thousand Year Old Mystery. A Cursed King. A Brilliant Divine Rescue. Right at the opening pages of the New Testament, readers run into one of the deepest and most startling puzzles in biblical history. The Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke give two completely different family trees for Jesus Christ. Matthew tracks the royal line through King Solomon, while Luke tracks the bloodline through David's other son, Nathan. For centuries, skeptics have pointed to this sharp divide and laughed, claiming the Bible is full of errors. But these two lists are not mistakes. They are the ...

"Jesus in the Shadows" is asking one big question: When Luke tells us in Luke 24:27 that Jesus showed His disciples “the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures,” just how are we meant to take the word “all”? Was it intended to be figurative—just Jesus’ way of saying, “Hey, no worries, there are a few verses about Me in that book we all like so much, and when you figure them out, you can use them to write your own book and really get the word out”? Or did He mean something immeasurably more? What if some of the most well-known Bible stories (like David and Goliath, ...

Jesus in the Weekly Sabbath. Christians are divided over the observance of the Sabbath; if to observe and when to observe. The Sabbath was the seventh day of the week and to violate the Sabbath is to break one of the Ten Commandments. The weekly sabbath was not one of the Seven annual feasts of GOD. However, it is the basis of the others and a good understanding of its institution, purpose, and practice is essential to understanding the annual feasts. Why did the ancient Israelites celebrate a Seventh Day Sabbath? Who changed the Sabbath Day from Saturday to Sunday? Jesus claimed to be the ...

What if Jesus Himself walked you through forty years of wilderness? After the tabernacle was built. After the sacrificial system was taught. After everything Israel needed to know was delivered at the foot of Sinai. They knew everything. And almost none of it was enough. In Numbers with Jesus, Christ narrates the brutal, beautiful stretch of ground between knowing what to do and actually doing it. Through His voice — intimate, unflinching, and full of a grief that only God can carry — Jesus walks you through the book the church rushes past to get to the Promised Land. This is not a ...

In the early books of the Old Testament, the mysterious "Angel of the Lord" repeatedly appears—visibly, audibly, even physically—to the Patriarchs, to Moses, to the Prophets. Who is this Angel? Exploring the biblical texts, the testimony of church history, and the insights of Systematic Theology, Matt Foreman and Doug Van Dorn argue that the answer is beyond doubt: the Angel of the Lord is a manifestation of God the Son. Even more, they argue that this Angel appears more often than people realize, because he appears under different titles, including: the Word, the Name, the Glory, the ...

“Before Abraham was, I am.” (John 8:58) The Apostle John made it clear. Jesus Christ was the Word of God who became flesh and dwelt among us.

In this book, author Bob Palumbo provides plenty of biblical evidence that Jesus Christ, as God’s Word, was both present and active from before the world was formed. It pleased the Father that His Son would ...
