The Gospel According to Isaiah

“The Evangelist of the Old Testament
Anticipates the Coming of the Savior”
Northern Virginia Bible Conference
April 1-3, 2016
 
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.” ISA 61:1
Many scholars consider Isaiah to be the evangelist of the Old Testament. This year, the theme for the Northern Virginia BTBM Bible Conference was “The Gospel According to Isaiah.” Gene examined Isaiah’s rich prophecies given in the eighth century before the birth of Christ. There is an astounding array of passages that portray the virgin birth, the unique hypostatic union of God and man, the proclamation of John the Baptizer, and then the life of Jesus—His ministry and substitutionary death, followed by His resurrection and future glory.There are even find hints of the call and formation of the Church—the Body of Christ—and our own purpose in the story of the ages.
Jesus read the theme verse in the Synagogue in Nazareth (LUK 4:16-19) at the inauguration of His ministry.

Upper Room Discourse #3

Upper Room Discourse #3

1st John reflects on what John learned in the Upper Room: . Joh 13:31-35 "...God is glorified in Him...a new commandment ... love... by this all will know". In the upper room Jesus knew what was in the heart of his disciples, but still "...loved them to the uttermost (Joh 13:1)". Jesus suffered personal hostility (Joh 13:18-30); if you are growing in grace you'll experience the same. Internal opposition (Joh 13:36-38 through Joh 14:1-11). Hostility from the world (Joh 15:18-25). Hostility from the Devil himself (Joh 14:30).

Scripture References: John 13:18-30, John 13:1, John 13:31-35, John 14:30, John 15:18-25, John 14:1-11, John 13:36-38
