Old Testament (291)

  2. The Lord’s provision doesn’t rest on the strength of our gratitude.
  3. If we picture the New Testament as a divinely painted masterpiece that hangs in the middle of a museum, then all around it are other works of the period, in different corridors of the museum, in many styles, painted by diverse artists, with variations of color and technique.
  4. Jacob is given the gospel afresh right when he needed it and it is because of this gospel that his faith is stirred up anew.

  10. Like Jacob, sinners approach the Heavenly Father wearing the clothes of their older brother, Jesus.
  11. Instead of a death sentence, those brothers hear the words of deliverance.
  12. Are you on the receiving end of freedom? Or are you trying to make yourself free?
