008: Understanding Christ in the Old Testament-The God of Israel

In this illuminating episode, host Scott Stanley delves deep into understanding the divine nature and purpose of Jesus Christ, as depicted throughout the Bible. Scott challenges traditional teachings by exploring profound concepts, such as Christ being the wisdom of God, the significance of His anointing, and His eternal presence as outlined in Proverbs 8 and Revelation 13:8.

Through a comparative analysis of pivotal scripture passages, Scott uncovers the vital connection between the Old and New Testaments, illustrating how the God of Israel, who delivered the Ten Commandments, is none other than Jesus. He explains the necessity of Jesus’ death in establishing the new covenant, emphasizing its role in overcoming iniquity and the works of the devil within believers.

Listeners are invited to explore the transformative power of understanding the cross, as Scott demonstrates its capacity to render the adversary’s influence inactive and instills a deeper comprehension of Jesus' sacrificial act for humanity’s redemption.
