Top Highlights
“When John turned to see the lion, he saw instead a lamb. This is a central New Testament truth: Christ’s worthiness to break the seals of the testamentary disposition, that is, His worthiness to open the scroll and inherit the kingdom is based on the victory He won as the Lamb on the cross.” (Pages 334–335)
“The implication is that only from the perspective of heaven can anyone understand what will take place on the earth” (Page 324)
“apart from the person and redeeming work of Jesus Christ, history is an enigma” (Page 331)
“The Book of Hosea as a Covenant Enforcement Document” (Page 35)
“So why did God veil His omniscience and reveal Himself as testing (v. 1) Abraham and as discovering the truth about His servant’s character (v. 12, ‘Now I know that you fear God’)? As in 18:21, by revealing Himself in this manner God made it clear that He was in a dynamic relationship with Abraham in which the patriarch’s actions and responses would play a formative role in how the future unfolded. The Lord granted the dignity of causality to Abraham, His responsible covenantal partner.” (Page 15)
