Scripture (1602)
  1. The man of lawlessness and God is doing the verbs.
  2. The Word of Yahweh is not a trifling thing that can be visited only when it’s convenient. It’s a book of life, for all of life, that imparts life to those who believe in it and the God of it.
  3. Solomon deals with his “enemies” and brother.
  4. In Christ, all things are new. This is also true in so far as His three-fold office of prophet, priest, and king.
  5. Preaching on this text isnan invitation to express love and longing in your relationship with your hearers.
  6. The oddness of this moment, at the beginning of Advent, is God’s way of saying, “The reason I’m here...”
  7. The youths that mock Elisha are representative of Israel’s collective contempt and disregard for all things relating to their One True God.
  8. The day of the Lord and complete sanctification.
  9. As we are continuing our "verses taken out of context" episodes, we are honored to have Rev. Bob Hiller, author of "Christ in the Straw" to help us understand James 2:26.
  10. What I like about Giertz’s approach is the devotional nature of these commentaries. He’s a pastor concerned with what these texts have to say to us today.
