The Unwanted Gift | Part Nine
"At first his disciples did not understand all this. Only after Jesus was glorified did they realize that these things had been written about him..." ~John 12:16
""They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead." ~John 20:9
"And after Jesus was raised from the dead, he came back and said, He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:”
“Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” ~Luke 24:44
Question 1: You don’t have to have heard the sermon from Sunday, but if you were in church, watched online, or listened to the podcast, what stuck with you?
Question 2: The life and ministry of Jesus did align with the Old Testament, but many people did not recognize it at the time (see scriptures above). Why do you think it was hard for them to make the connection?
Question 3: Read Psalm 22. As you do, imagine reading it before the life and ministry of Jesus. What do you think this Psalm meant to the people who read it before the life and ministry of Jesus? Now, what does it mean to us who read it in light of the life and ministry of Jesus?
