Rahab and the Scarlet Cord | Before Bethlehem (Part 2)


Listen Later

The story of Christmas is found in five women in Jesus' genealogy. Their stories are the stories of us all.
The second woman mentioned in Jesus’ genealogy is Rahab. She was a pagan Canaanite prostitute living in Jericho. When the Israelite spies came to spy out the land, she risked her life by hiding them in her house. Because of her faith in God, she was saved when the Israelites conquered Jericho.
Rahab put her faith in the true and living God and received life and salvation instead of death and destruction! She was saved by the grace of God through her faith in God, symbolized by the scarlet cord.
Regardless of what time you live, God always brings salvation in the same way: by grace alone through faith alone. God reached down from heaven and saved us with a “scarlet thread”—the blood of Jesus. In Christ, God threw us a scarlet-colored “rope” to pull us to safety and redeem us from sin’s penalty!
Our purpose now is to carry that “scarlet cord” of victory to those who are perishing! As those who have been rescued by the “scarlet cord” from heaven, we are to take that “scarlet cord” from heaven and help rescue others.
You never know what God is going to do through you when you extend the scarlet cord of hope and victory to others. You might not see it until years down the road, but you can witness with confidence that God is going to work through you if you are obedient!
Join Pastor Phil Hopper as he shares how Rahab and the scarlet cord point to Jesus’ saving work in our lives.
