Old Testament (1172)
  1. Jesus takes the sins of man upon Himself and carries them to the cross to make our hearts holy and acceptable in the eyes of God.
  2. The Death of Saul and his sons.
  3. When we look upon the cross, we see our sin. We also see the One who washes it away and gives life.
  4. Captured families, an abandoned servant, and a drunk raid party.
  5. While these are familiar words to us, frequently they are dealt with in ways that fail to take into account the context and the situation.
  6. Saul eats and David is unlike anyone else.
  7. The Church has traditionally understood Baptism as a naming Sacrament. It reminds us of our new baptismal identity.
  8. We cannot scan any random passage of Scripture and automatically assume the words are unconditionally addressed to us. Often, very often, they are not.
  9. Do you want to learn Hebrew or expand your knowledge of the language? What are some online resources for studying the Bible in the original languages?
  10. Violent raids and raising the dead.
  11. The amount of Messianic/Christological connections in this account is stunning. This is an excellent Old Testament text with which to begin Lent!
  12. God’s plans and purposes for this world aren’t dependent upon us. They’re dependent upon him. This means our faith is liberated.
