“No churches were built until about 200 years after Paul’s day and not until the Roman emperor Constantine the Great put an end to the persecution of Christians.” (Page 643)
“Genesis gives us a record of at least 2,000 years. It is not entirely history; it is a spiritual interpretation of history.” (Page 35)
“They forgot that God had chosen them for a purpose—to tell the world the truth that there is but one true God” (Page 114)
“God’s covenant with David consisted of the promise of a King to sit upon his throne forever (see 2 Samuel 7:8–13). God’s covenant with Abraham promised that through him all families of the earth would be blessed (see Genesis 12:3). David’s son was a King. Abraham’s son was a Sacrifice. Matthew opens with the birth of a King and closes with the offering of a Sacrifice.” (Page 422)
“David was a mighty king and warrior. He is ranked with Abraham, Moses and Paul. His great spirit is revealed to us in the psalms that he wrote, and we need to understand David’s life in order to understand and use the psalms. We must know, too, why Christ was called the Son of David (see Acts 13:22–23). David stands halfway between Abraham and Christ.” (Page 154)
