Christ in the Old Testament- Isaiah 49

Pastor Kachelmeier is the guest on Issues, Etc. talking about Christ in Isaiah chapter 49. In this passage we are taught about the purpose of the holy incarnation, that is, to bring back the people of Israel to God and to make the Gentiles into the people of God by the preaching of Christ. Christ declares, “Listen to me, O coastlands, and give attention, you peoples from afar. The Lord called me from the womb, from the body of my mother he named my name.” (Isaiah 49:1, ESV) Christ’s Kingdom comes by the preaching of His word. Thus, His mouth has been made to be like a sharp sword.  (click here to listen to the interview on Issues, Etc.)

Lecture 69- Characteristics of the Word of God- Clarity Part 1

Characteristics of the Word of God- Clarity Part 1

Rev. Brian L. Kachelmeier

When we say that the written word of God is clear, what we mean is that it clearly states the teaching of salvation that everyone must know in order to be saved.  We are not claiming that absolutely everything in Scripture is absolutely clear.  It is true that there are many obscure things, but the articles of faith necessary for salvation are explained with clear and certain language.  All that is needed for the knowledge of salvation is clearly revealed in the Bible.

Christ in the Old Testament- Isaiah 42

Pastor Kachelmeier is the guest on Issues, Etc. talking about Christ in Isaiah chapter 42. God the Father  declares, “Behold my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him;” (Isaiah 42:1, ESV)  Likewise, the Apostle Matthew tells us, “And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”” (Matthew 3:16–17, ESV)  (click here to listen to the interview on Issues, Etc.)
