Today's Gospel instalment : 01/19/2025 Sermon Title: Absent from the king's table Text: 1 Samul 20 1. The running battles between David and Saul continued, but for a gospel testimony. 2. And Jonathan, the son of Saul the king of Israel also comes into the mix of the gospel testimony. 3. Many for a lack of a gospel hermeneutic will seek to find if Saul and Jonathan were saved and in the process lose sight of what God was preaching. 4. Saul, Jonathan and David were all gospel testimonies that wore different hats of the gospel. 5. Since there is no single person who could fulfill all the gospel types, in the OT the testimonies were spread out among different people. And so you will see Saul carrying more than one type as God the Father and of the Law. 6. And we shall see this layering too with Jonathan and his relationship with David, which the untaught have horribly misconstrued to be a gay relationship with David. 7. But I did not learn Christ that way, Jonathan and David represent a developing gospel testimony that will continue to unfold in their story. 8. So, we will explore the details. And typology is very fluid, but it must be GROUNDED IN NEW TESTAMENT GOSPEL TESTIMONY. IT MUST BE SUPPORTED WITH TRUTH AND REASON OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. And this is FREE!
