Christ in the Old Testament- Malachi 3

Pastor Kachelmeier is the guest on Issues, Etc. talking about Christ in Malachi chapter 3. The Prophet Malachi gives to us this promise, “a book of remembrance was written before him of those who feared the Lord and esteemed his name.” (Malachi 3:16, ESV) How does one become enrolled in the book of remembrance? The LORD will act by sending the Baptizer, who is referred to as His messenger to prepare His way. Then the Christ will come to His temple to purify. Christ is called the Messenger of the Covenant. Our names are written in the book of life with His blood of the New Covenant. He is the Covenant of God incarnate.   (click here to listen to the interview on Issues, Etc.)

Christ in the Old Testament- Malachi 4

Pastor Kachelmeier on Issues, Etc. talking about Christ in Malachi chapter 4. The Prophet Malachi gives to us this promise, “…for you who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness shall rise with healing in His wings..” (Malachi 4:2) But before He comes, the Baptizer, who is referred to as Elijah, will prepare His way. Zechariah, the father of John the Baptizer rejoices that his son will be the Prophet of the Most High who will be sent “to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins, because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the Sunrise shall visit us from on high” (Luke 1:77–78)   (click here to listen to the interview on Issues, Etc.)

Lecture 65- The Revealed Mystery of the Trinity in the Old and New Testaments- Part 1

The Revealed Mystery of the Trinity in the Old and New Testaments- Part 1

Rev. Brian L. Kachelmeier

We believe, teach, and confess that there is only One True God.  The divine essence is undivided.  At the same time we believe, teach, and confess that the One True God has revealed Himself as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  The three persons of the Holy Trinity are coequal, coeternal, and consubstantial.  We worship one God in three persons and three persons in one God.  We neither divide the divine essence nor confuse the persons.  We hold to the Trinity in Unity and the Unity in Trinity.  The teaching of the Holy Trinity is rightly called a mystery. This mystery is revealed in the writings of both the Old and New Testaments. (Click here)

Christ in the Old Testament- Exodus 3

Pastor Kachelmeier on Issues, Etc. talking about Christ in Exodus chapter 3. In this passage, The Messenger of Yahweh appears to Moses and from the midst of the bush He says, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” This is not a created angel; rather this is the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. In this passage we learn to make a distinction in the plurality of the persons of the Blessed Holy Trinity. We learn to make a distinction between the Person who sends and the Person who is sent. The Father sends the Son. The Son is Yahweh. (click here to listen to the interview on Issues, Etc.)
