Last week I met with a group of zealous, young Christian men in the
Savannah, GA area for a series of talks on biblical theology. For lack
of a planned title for our meetings, I have simple called the talks “The
Emmaus Sessions.” At the first meeting we met to discuss the extremely
important–yet often overlooked–subject of Jesus as true Israel. You can find the video from the session below. The substance of our talk comes from a post I wrote in 2010. You can find it here. For a more detailed development, see this post. You can also listen to an exposition of the True Israel’s temptation in the wilderness here. James Dennison’s article on this subject is also extremely useful. Continue at Nicholas T. Batzig
Scriptures teach consistently that faith comes through the proclamation of the gospel, not through good works. Christ himself was not arrested and arraigned because he was trying to restore family values or feed the poor...The mounting ire of the religious leaders toward Jesus coalesced around him making himself equal with God and forgiving sins in his own person, directly, over against the temple and its sacrificial system. Michael Horton
