Biblical Basis for Missions – Old Testament Subjects

Bible Audio Blog

What do we mean by #missions?  It is simply sharing the #gospel or #goodnews with others.  It could be your immediate #neighbor or someone living far from your home.  But it is all missions.  If missions is about sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, what does the old testament have to do with this activity?  In the same way that you cannot have the new testament without the old, the ground work for missions is laid down in the old testament.  God created the whole world, so doesn’t that mean that the whole world needs His Son?  In Genesis, we see man’s fall.  So doesn’t that mean we all need a Savior?  Do sinners seek God or does God seek them?  As early as Genesis 3:15, we see the plan for reconciling sinful man back to God.  What can we learn about missionaries from Noah, from Abraham, and even the Israelites?

      19860928 How To Cure Snakebite - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#SnakeBite, why would you want to know this unless you had been #attacked?  This is not a message about handling #dangerous #snakes.  But, what if I told you that we have all been bitten by this one old rotten snake?  First, what are the symptoms?  Take the Israelites in the wilderness, what was so distasteful to God about their behavior?  How are we different today?  What’s God’s answer to their rebellion?  How about ours?  What is harder, following Christ or not following Him?  What is the law of sin and death?  So what is the cure for this fatal bite?  Back to the Israelites for a minute, why didn’t God answer their petition the way that they wanted?  How does the snake symbolism change in this story?  Is there more than one cure for snake bite?  This cure is simple and yet so many who are in danger of dying refuse it.
