• Quote from page 100 ~ can you give examples?
•  Jesus in Redemptive History – examples from Edwards (pages 102-106)
• Jesus’ Use of Redemptive History – (Jesus’ humanity needed teaching; Jesus grew in knowledge; Jesus

learned by listening, reading, and studying; Jesus’ most important source of knowledge was the OT; Jesus knew the OT better than anyone ever did) ~ all of this taught him about His past, person, purpose, principles, people, praises.

Jesus on Every Page – Chapter 8 – “Christ’s People: Discovering Jesus in the OT Characters”
Main criticism of the biological or “heroes and villains” approach to the OT

• This approach is man-centered (many sermons follow this pattern)
• The approach is moralistic
•  It fragments the Bible (isolates the passage from the main sweep of biblical history)
• Tends to be Christ-less (sermons can be God-sermons but not Jesus-sermons)
• Skips over the original meaning
•  Approach is too individualistic

Best approach is to listen carefully to the valid concerns expressed by biographical critics and modify our approach so
that we can sue these spiritual biographies in a more Christ-centered way. Main aim must be to:

•  Keep God, no man, in the foreground
•  Distinguish Christian morality from mere moralism by realizing that we need Jesus’ grace to obey any moral requirement and His forgiveness when we fail
•  Avoid introspective subjectivism by looing away to Jesus far more than looking within for evidences of grace
• Relate ever story to the overarching plan of redemptive
• Look for Jesu when studying Jesus’ people
• Find the original purpose for the original audience
• Include the corporate and eternal perspective even when looking at individual earthly lives

 Jesus on Every Page – Chapter 7 – “Christ’s Planet: Discovering Jesus in the Creation”
Key verse:

• ▪ Colossians 1:16
• ▪ Things created have the purposes in Christ [Jesus created his own teaching aids – camels, birds, sheep, etc.]

Good to begin with considering who the opening chapters of Genesis original audience was

• ▪ Written originally for Israel, a redeemed people in a fallen world
• ▪ Written by Moses primarily to teach the newly redeemed people of Israel about their Redeemer God and to look to Him for an even greater Redeemer and redemption – a Redeemer greater than Moses and a redemption greater
  than a physical deliverance from Egyptian slavery
• ▪ Think John 1:1-3 and Hebrews 1:1-3

There was a plan of redemption before there was a creation:

• ▪ Ephesians 1:4
• ▪ Revelation 13:8
• ▪ 1 Peter 1:20

If you want, we can go through any of the following: advance of redemption (48-49); advantages of redemption (50);
apex of redemption (50-51); author of redemption (51-52); or application of redemption (52-53)

Jesus on Every Page – Chapters 1-6

Unfortunately, there is a general neglect of the OT in many churches. Several reasons:

• ▪ Liberalism – sustained attack on the OT by liberal scholars have shaken Christian’s confidence in the OT
• ▪ Ignorance – lack of knowledge of the culture and history of the OT
• ▪ Irrelevance – no longer applicable to life today
• ▪ Dispensationalism – their artificial dividing up of the Bible into different eras ended up relegating the OT to a minor status
  ▪ Bad examples – OT preaching and teaching is often done poorly
  ▪ Laziness – studying the OT might take more effort
  ▪ Christ-less preaching – too often OT preaching degenerates into moralism
  ▪ Using the title “Christ” instead of the name “Jesus” when referring to the 2 
  nd person of the trinity in the OT
  
  What’s the OT all about?
  ▪ Luke 24:25-27, 44
  ▪ Matthew 5:17-18
  ▪ John 8:56
  ▪ Galatians 3:8
  ▪ Hebrews 11:8-9
  ▪ 1 Peter 1:10-11
