L004-The Old Testament Leads to Jesus- Abraham Part 2


Listen Later

Mark continued with the 4th lesson in the Long and Winding Road series. In completing Abraham Part 2, Mark points us to John 8:56 when Jesus said to the Jews. “…before Abraham was, I am”.  In explanation of how Abraham saw Jesus, Genesis 18:1 offers the theology when God appears to Abraham in a possible Trinitarian form. Mark continues by showing how Abraham also saw Jesus in the future of redeeming man when God stopped him from sacrificing Isaac (Genesis 22). Listen to Mark offer insight into the analogy of the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of Jesus in Abraham’s story. “Take your son, your only son whom you love” echoed in John 3:16.
