Uncovering Jesus in the Old Testament: A Journey Through the Redemption Story, Part 8

The notion that everything in Scripture points to Jesus is
compelling and transformative for any Christian seeking to deepen
their understanding of the Bible. Many might think that Jesus
only emerges in the New Testament, beginning with His birth in
Matthew, but today's message uncovers how the redemption story
starts well before that. As you watch this video, you will
discover how the Old Testament serves as a tapestry, intricately
woven with prophecies and events that point unmistakably to Jesus
as the lead story.  





In today's exploration, Pastor Ron Cathcart dives deep into the
life of Solomon, focusing on the temple's dedication, as depicted
in 1 Chronicles 28 and 2 Chronicles 7. Through this pivotal
event, we are reminded that God’s glory dwelling in Solomon's
temple was a foretaste of His ultimate presence among us—first in
the person of Jesus Christ and now through the Holy Spirit living
within believers, making us His temple. Reflecting on key
passages such as Luke 24:25-27 and the impactful story of Jesus
on the road to Emmaus, Pastor Ron illustrates how every ancient
prophecy and scripture echoes the promise of Jesus. He draws upon
1 Corinthians 6 and 1 Peter 2 to emphasize that as followers of
Christ, we are now the spiritual temple where God dwells.





This sermon challenges us to go beyond "playing church" and to
seek a relationship with God that transcends a mere Sunday
routine. It’s an invitation to live every day—from Monday to
Saturday—with the awareness and reverence of God's presence and
glory in our lives. Understanding this invites transformation,
calling us to humility, repentance, and a deeper spiritual
walk.
