On The Road

And he said to them, "O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory? And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself." Luke 24: 25-27

This weekend is Palm Sunday and we are going to investigate a passage I am sure that Jesus taught these two disciples while walking the Road to Emmaus. The passage is found in Genesis 22 entitled in my Bible -"The Sacrifice of Isaac". A baffling passage, "Why would God encourage Abraham to child sacrifice???" If Jesus used this passage to teach about himself, what did he teach? How was God working in this passage to reveal Jesus and His heart for mankind?

I pray as we look at this passage it will chase away "your foolish and slow to believe heart" and replace it with a heart "burning for Jesus" and the truth found in the cross and the resurrection.

I look forward to seeing you this weekend and hope you will make worshipping our Lord a priority in your schedule.

This would be a great week to invite a friend! I have had many people ask the question about child sacrifice and this passage. So Bring a Friend! It's one of the great OT Gospel passages and we will investigate it together.

Please continue to "Pray and Watch" in "your world". Easter is the most attended Sunday in the Church year! It's a great opportunity to invite a friend and to share all that God has done and been doing in your life. People are interested in Jesus Christ and especially how he has changed your life.

God Bless and See You This Weekend!
