Summary
And so as the people are in the promised land, as there's the allotment of the land here, we see here that the Israelites, in all of these details as you get in these chapters here of the land allotments, they would have delighted in every single detail. And you come back to Christ, and you come back to his purpose for being born, and you come back to his perfect life, and you come back to what the prophets had said about this man, and it's not all done in one conversation. So if we look beginning at verse 25, we're going to look 25, so chapter 11 of Matthew 25 through 30, where it begins at that time, Jesus said, I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the intelligent and have revealed them to infants. So this is a broad study, but being a broad study, if you have any specific questions or thoughts or, you know, that, that you just want to get out there or, or ask, email them to me, because then I know, just like we've done in other classes, where it's a broader topic, and you have questions, then I know, like, oh, okay, so this is what, because we're all different, and we're going to have different things, different questions pop up. Would you open your Bibles, please, with me, to John the first chapter for our time in God's Word today, if you're using a Pew Edition of Holy Scripture, you're going to find that in the New Testament on page 80, John the first chapter. Jesus Christ laid himself as the sacrificial lamb upon the altar before the Lord, the altar that was the cross of Calvary, where he hung dying for your sins, for my sin to take the stench of our sin, and remove it from us, and instead lay before the altar of the Lord himself, the sacrificial lamb, the aroma that is pleasing to the Lord, to be there eternally in our place, eternally lifting the aroma of sacrifice before the Lord, in his death, Christ conquered death, and in conquering death, he has the eternal victory over sin.
