Christ in the Old Testament (89)
  1. Christ does not replace or erase the history of the Old Testament. He brings it to its fullness. The historical fulfillments demonstrate God's faithfulness in their own time and also bear witness to the greater fulfillment accomplished in Jesus Christ.
  2. Jesus Christ is the Ark of the New Covenant. He is our place of atonement, our mercy seat. He puts a lid on the righteousness that might otherwise condemn us by offering his very self in our stead on the cross.
  3. The acrostic psalms do not hold because of their perfect structure. Nor do our lives.
  4. The following entries are excerpts from Chad Bird’s new book, Untamed Prayers: 365 Daily Devotions on Christ in the Book of the Psalms (1517 Publishing, 2025), pgs. 311 and 335
  5. Is modern Israel the heir of the promises and covenant God made with ancient Israel?
  6. The Psalm now is this: as Christ suffered and then was exalted, so we are also in him.
  7. The grain of God’s goodness and grace is made known by many trees throughout the Bible.
  8. The Lord has an answer to your tears, your trouble, your weariness, your enemies, your grief, your shame, your sin.
  9. Show me a sinner, and I’ll write you a story of a God who saves them.
  10. God’s creatures on four legs are some of the greatest storytellers of the Scriptures.
  11. Jesus took the poison of sin and drank the cup of wrath on our behalf to gain favor and righteousness for us.
  12. God can never really be said to be ignoring us, even if our experience with God at any given moment is that he is.
