Old Testament (189)
  1. Jesus can ferret out the difference between the darnel/weeds and the wheat. It is on the threshing floor of Calvary where that work is done. There, the wheat and the chaff are separated.
  2. Just like you cannot stop the rain by shouting, so you cannot stop the plans of God from coming down.
  3. This peace from Christ was bought with no less strife or warfare than what earthly peace is won with.
  4. Who would not want to see the exiles return and the temple restored? Unfortunately, God calls Jeremiah to be the bearer of bad news.
  5. God knows he is struggling, yet the struggle does not nullify God’s gracious love for him.
  6. Just as God on “Eagles’ wings” miraculously provided manna and water and life by His Word to Israel in the desert, so Jesus gather’s His Church as a hen would to give of Himself like the pelican to us in our journey through life in this Pentecost season of the Church Year.
  7. Hosea also portrays God in a very intimate and husbandly way, reaching out to the one He loves when love is abused and lost.
  8. God, through the mystery of Trinity, is at work in the act of creation. Every person of the Trinity participated in creation.
  9. What Moses suffered in a limited way Christ actually endured fully on our behalf!
  10. Jesus is alive! The message will and must always be that Jesus died and rose again. That is the full good news we need.
  11. What does it mean to listen to Jesus? What does it mean to follow Him as He suffers?
  12. Even if the only thing remaining of you is your bones, even if you are dead in sins and trespasses (like Ezekiel’s hearers and all peoples), He can give you life.
