We can learn from them to go to the Scriptures and seek Him. Dig into the Word of God and learn from them that the Bible is GOOD NEWS! This is a great lesson to help us understand just what those Old Testament Prophets were searching for!

Old Testament Prophets Were Seeing THIS! | Acts 2:14-42 | Cub Kuker Supernatural Podcast (S5/EP4)Peter's sermon in Acts chapter 2 changed the game on Old Testament prophecy, proving once and for all that all the old prophets were, in fact, being spoken to with words, images, and concepts pertaining to Jesus Christ. What happened on Pentecost wasn't just a spectacle; it was the fulfillment of encoded divine communication, activated through Peter's voice and heaven's flame. As he stood among the eleven and lifted up his voice, the Spirit (pneuma, Strong's 4151)—the same breath that hovered over the waters in Genesis—was now pouring into men as a dōrea (1431), a gift freely given, not earned, aligning with the unmerited favor foretold in shadows and types.✞ Hi, I'm Cub—a Christian, Supernatural Mentor, and Media Creator sharing my faith.

Jesus Christ came to fulfill all of the promises that were delivered by the Old Testament Prophets. In Him, every promise is Yes and Amen.
This Sunday we'll be digging into the first chapter of Micah, the Minor Prophet. We've stated before that this book, like all the works of the Old Testament Prophets, contains some difficult and harsh words. I will again be reminding us that we must read any of these prophecies through the lens of the revelation of who God is in Jesus. We'll talk some about how we go about applying these Scriptures as well.As you read through this opening chapter, you'll notice that great, cosmic imagery is employed to reinforce just how serious the situation is. Imagine the opening like a trial, where God calls witnesses to hear his complaint about how his covenant people have been using the freedom they had.The list of complaints will be extensive as the book goes on – but in the opening salvo, we have a description of high places in Jerusalem. That is our clue that identifies idolatry as the first issue God brings into focus. We'll talk about idolatry on Sunday – what it means and how it can affect us, even in a modern age where it's unlikely anyone is bowing down to a carved statue somewhere.Idolatry is a big issue in the Scriptures – a main source of trouble all through the history of God's people. If you've ever been near a church, you've likely heard sermons on this problem before. What's your natural reaction to hearing that we may have idols still lurking in our lives? If you are warned to get rid of an idol, no matter what form it may take, do you feel encouraged, condemned or something in between?What if the cure for idolatry wasn't about getting our act together or trying to be a better Christian? What if it were something deeper, something we need to realize about our identity? I'm persuaded that the first chapter of Micah gives us a clue as to how God can cure “the incurable plague” that has often hounded his beloved people. I hope you can join us as we consider this on Sunday – I think it will be a great encouragement to us all!Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.

Read Online“I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased. So also will the Son of Man suffer at their hands.” Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist. Matthew 17:12–13The last of the Old Testament Prophets was Malachi. He concluded his ministry about 400 years prior to the coming of Christ. Malachi prophesied that a “messenger” would come before the Messiah so as to prepare the way before Him. Malachi goes on further to say that “Elijah the Prophet” will come before the day of the Lord (See Malachi 3:1–24).Many of the people at the time of Jesus did not understand this prophecy and were not even aware of it. Therefore, the scribes used this prophecy to confuse many of the people by claiming that since “Elijah” had not come, then clearly Jesus was not the promised Messiah.Jesus clarified to the disciples that the “messenger,” who was to be the new Elijah, had already come in the person of John the Baptist. Thus, in clarifying this, Jesus also clarified that the scribes were not accurate in their attempt to interpret the Scriptures and were actively misleading the people on account of their errors.One thing this tells us is that we must approach the word of God with humility. The pride of the scribes led them to believe that they had some sort of extraordinary wisdom that they did not. Thus, they acted as poor spiritual teachers of the people of God.Humility before the Word of God is essential if we are to properly understand not only the Old Testament prophecies but also the very words of Jesus Himself. Without humility before the Word of God, we can all easily misinterpret the beautiful and holy words spoken by our Lord.Everything in the Scriptures is profound, deep and true. And by this holy Word of God we come to meet God Himself. But if we allow pride to seep in, we may find ourselves imitating the scribes and misunderstanding God's Word. The result will be a skewed image of God which will become an impediment to our personal encounter with our loving Lord. But if we can always remain humble before all that God has revealed to us, then we will more easily be open to those deepest and most beautiful truths God wants to speak to our hearts. Reflect, today, upon any way that you have found yourself confused by the Word of God. Try to humbly open your heart more fully to that which our Lord wants to speak to you. Listen with an open mind and heart and allow the pure gift of faith to become your guide so that you will be led to those deepest truths of our faith.My mysterious and beautiful Lord, You have revealed to us the deepest and most profound mysteries of life through Your written Word. May I always approach Your Word with humility and openness so that I will come to know You more fully. Jesus, I trust in You.

Elder Jeff David begins a new Sunday School series on understanding and interpreting the Old Testament Prophets.
In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, host Jacob Winograd explores eschatology, Old Testament prophecy, and covenant theology. Jacob delves into how the Old Testament passages foreshadow the New Covenant and the messianic reign of Christ. He emphasizes the fulfillment hermeneutic, which sees Christ as the ultimate fulfillment of these prophecies. By examining key passages from Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Isaiah, and Joel, Jacob explains how the messianic kingdom is characterized by spiritual transformation rather than a physical, coercive rule.Jacob also discusses the role of Christians in the current era, highlighting the importance of focusing on internal spiritual renewal through the Holy Spirit, rather than relying on external pressures or political power to enforce righteousness. He challenges common interpretations of eschatological passages that suggest a future physical reign of Christ, advocating instead for an understanding rooted in the internal and spiritual nature of the New Covenant.Full Shownotes at https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-75-what-kind-of-kingdom-did-the-old-testament-prophets-foresee-earthly-or-spiritual/Additional Resources:Title: The Transformative Power of the Gospel in SocietySummary: This episode explores how the gospel transforms culture and society, emphasizing the role of the Holy Spirit in the New Covenant era.Link: http://biblicalanarchypodcast.com/episode/transformative-gospelTitle: Covenant Theology and Christian EthicsSummary: Dive deeper into covenant theology and its implications for modern Christian living and political engagement.Link: http://libertarianchristians.com/podcast/covenant-theology-ethicsTitle: Understanding the Continuity of the CovenantsSummary: A comprehensive discussion on the relationship between the Old and New Covenants, and how they shape our understanding of the Bible.Link: http://libertarianchristians.com/episode/continuity-covenantsThe Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.

The Inspiration of the Old Testament Prophets2 Peter 1:20–21 (ESV) — 20 knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. 21 For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.WHO WROTE SCRIPTURE Pg. 25“Peter stresses that prophetic portions of Scripture, or, indeed, the entire body of Scripture (I favor the latter interpretation), were not the result of individuals having hunches and feelings and convictions about God and the world, then writing those down. The Scriptures are not the product of human investigation and reason; they are not “of any private interpretation.” To make that point clear, Petersays, “Prophecy came not in old time by the will of man.” Pg. 25-26HOW THEIR TESTIMONY IS CONFIRMED1. The testimony of leaders who followed. During the Old Testament, people of the exile looked back to the time of the prophets and acknowledged that they spoke courageously and faithfully under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.2. 2. The experiences of the prophets. The prophets knew by experience that their messages came through the illumination and authority of the Spirit of GodHOW SCRIPTURE WRITING DIFFERS FROM DICTATION“God did not disregard the personalities of Moses, Samuel, David, Isaiah, and others in the writing of Scripture. Their styles and temperaments and personal feelings are apparent in all they wrote. We reject the suggestion that the prophets were little better than human Dictaphones who mechanically recordedthe words God spoke to them. We do not believe in such parrot-like reproduction.” Pg. 29PROTECTING SCRIPTURE FROM ERRORNumbers 24:2 tells us that the Spirit of God came upon a prophet named Balaam, and he uttered his oracle Pg. 32CONCLUSIONThe Old Testament Scriptures are infallible. They are holy. They are powerful. They are consistent. They are the appointed means of salvation. We are begotten by their truth, enlightened by their truth, sanctified by their truth, and saved by their truth. The Old and New Testaments contain all the revealed words of God that this fallen world needs. They are enough to thoroughly equip a believer for everypossible good work. They are plain, so that everyone can understand what God says. They are the light of the world, the fountain of life, and the treasure store of God.

The Sunday following Pentecost is dedicated to All Saints, both those who are known to us, and those who are known only to God. There have been saints at all times, and they have come from every corner of the earth. They were Apostles, Martyrs, Prophets, Hierarchs, Monastics, and Righteous, yet all were perfected by the same Holy Spirit. The Descent of the Holy Spirit makes it possible for us to rise above our fallen state and to attain sainthood, thereby fulfilling God's directive to “be holy, for I am holy” (Lev. 11:44, 1 Peter 1:16, etc.). Therefore, it is fitting to commemorate All Saints on the first Sunday after Pentecost. This feast may have originated at an early date, perhaps as a celebration of all martyrs, then it was broadened to include all men and women who had borne witness to Christ by their virtuous lives, even if they did not shed their blood for Him. Saint Peter of Damascus, in his “Fourth Stage of Contemplation,” mentions five categories of saints: Apostles, Martyrs, Prophets, Hierarchs, and Monastic Saints (Philokalia [in English] Vol. 3, p.131). He is actually quoting from the Octoechos, Tone 2 for Saturday Matins, kathisma after the first stichology. Saint Νikόdēmos of the Holy Mountain (July 14) adds the Righteous to Saint Peter's five categories. The list of Saint Νikόdēmos is found in his book The Fourteen Epistles of Saint Paul (Venice, 1819, p. 384) in his discussion of I Corinthians 12:28. The hymnology for the feast of All Saints also lists six categories: “Rejoice, assembly of the Apostles, Prophets of the Lord, loyal choirs of the Martyrs, divine Hierarchs, Monastic Fathers, and the Righteous....” Some of the saints are described as Confessors, a category which does not appear in the above lists. Since they are similar in spirit to the martyrs, they are regarded as belonging to the category of Martyrs. They were not put to death as the Martyrs were, but they boldly confessed Christ and came close to being executed for their faith. Saint Maximus the Confessor (January 21) is such a saint. The order of these six types of saints seems to be based on their importance to the Church. The Apostles are listed first, because they were the first to spread the Gospel throughout the world. The Martyrs come next because of their example of courage in professing their faith before the enemies and persecutors of the Church, which encouraged other Christians to remain faithful to Christ even unto death. Although they come first chronologically, the Prophets are listed after the Apostles and Martyrs. This is because the Old Testament Prophets saw only the shadows of things to come, whereas the Apostles and Martyrs experienced them firsthand. The New Testament also takes precedence over the Old Testament. The holy Hierarchs comprise the fourth category. They are the leaders of their flocks, teaching them by their word and their example. The Monastic Saints are those who withdrew from this world to live in monasteries, or in seclusion. They did not do this out of hatred for the world, but in order to devote themselves to unceasing prayer, and to do battle against the power of the demons. Although some people erroneously believe that monks and nuns are useless and unproductive, Saint John Climacus had a high regard for them: “Angels are a light for monks, and the monastic life is a light for all men” (LADDER, Step 26:31). The last category, the Righteous, are those who attained holiness of life while living “in the world.” Examples include Abraham and his wife Sarah, Job, Saints Joachim and Anna, Saint Joseph the Betrothed, Saint Juliana of Lazarevo, and others.

In a world where there were many false prophets, it was very important for Israelites to be able to distinguish true prophets of God from false prophets. For this reason, the Old Testament laid out several qualifications for true prophets of God.

But if we can always remain humble before all that God has revealed to us, then we will more easily be open to those deepest and most beautiful truths God wants to speak to our hearts.Reflect, today, upon any way that you have found yourself confused by the Word of God. Try to humbly open your heart more fully to that which our Lord wants to speak to you. Listen with an open mind and heart and allow the pure gift of faith to become your guide so that you will be led to those deepest truths of our faith.My mysterious and beautiful Lord, You have revealed to us the deepest and most profound mysteries of life through Your written Word. May I always approach Your Word with humility and openness so that I will come to know You more fully. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.
