Were There Jews in Egypt at the Time of the Exodus?
Using both biblical and extra biblical records we can establish a hard date for the Exodus, and in doing so we can know what the people we have traditionally referred to as “Jews” were practicing, and how they were actually referred to at the time of the Exodus. This will help us clear up any cultural confusion and homogenization surrounding these people. VF-2418 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

Jewish History: Not as Ancient as You Might Think
The religious history of God’s people and the Promised Land is complicated. Many peoples have occupied the land over the centuries, but God was focused on the line of Shem leading up to Christ. Not all of God’s people were Jewish, nor were they practicing Judaism. God promised to bless all the tribes of Israel, and He will reunite them one day.

Unfolding the History of Judaism
There is a lot of ignorance in academia regarding the terms “Israelites,” “Hebrews,” and “Jews.” Judaism did not exist until after the return from captivity, and God's people did not always have the same religious practices. Who is who, and who the land of Israel belongs to, is more complicated than we might think. VF-2416 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

In Meekness, Teach the Truth Rooted in Christ
What will become of the children of God if the church is not instructing them in the Bible? A minister is supposed to teach and correct the people in meekness. That is not weak or as a pushover, but in full strength and paradoxically gentle. By chastening those who resist and are opposed to the gospel, proper teaching can bring about repentance and free them from the snare of the devil to the knowledge of the truth rooted in Christ.

Messages of Rebuke from the Prophets
With the kings of Judah and Israel, the pattern has always been that when the leadership is corrupt, it trickles down. Focusing on the period of 930-900 B.C., we see how God used prophets to rebuke kings in an effort to get them back on track. It took courage and faith for these prophets to communicate a hard message from God. Not every leader received His correction, but the record shows that those who did, He was merciful to help and deliver. In this day and age, God is still looking for people who will receive His correction, no matter how unpleasant, knowing that it is for our good.

Prophets for Profit
When we look at the prophets of old, there’s no question that much of our understanding about modern-day prophets is erroneous. Contrary to popular belief, the vast majority of Old Testament prophets did not look into a crystal ball to divine the future. They were men who were used as mouthpieces to utter God’s message in words or in actions that held symbolic meaning. In this message, Pastor Scott dives into the Hebrew words for “prophet” and the Old Testament examples that reveal the definition and function of a true biblical prophet.

The Cross Is the Focal Point of Christianity
Paul is addressing two groups of people, their reaction to the cross and what that reaction produces. Although both products sound static in the English, the Greek reveals both are processes. To those who have rejected Christ, the cross is moronic and has produced the process of perishing. To those who have trusted Christ, the cross is the reality of life eternal that human ability cannot obtain. While the message of the cross creates division, it is also the unifying force of the church, who has become a community of people heralding its message; it is the prototype of what we will become and the solution to all of the problems we face today. 1 Corinthians 1:18 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

Christ's Fulfillment of Scripture in Matthew
Just as eyewitnesses may see any event from different perspectives and recall different details, each of the Gospel writers has a slightly different focus in the information he presents. Matthew's record focuses on the death of Christ and spilling of blood that would fulfill the shadows and types of the Old Testament sacrifices, presenting Christ as Deliverer and Reconciler for both Jews and Gentiles. Our only choice is to either wholly accept or wholly reject him. VF-2179 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

Psalm 22: A Type of Christ's Work at the Cross

Psalm 22: A Type of Christ's Work at the Cross
Though it may not be as clear in the King James English, the text of Psalm 22 in the Hebrew clearly depicts the suffering of Christ. Although the psalm was written by David, the details cannot possibly refer to his own suffering: it is a prophetic picture of Christ written a thousand years before it became history. There is no way anyone could fake these things; they would have to somehow control the reactions of the mocking enemies. Seeing how God brought this to pass, we can have confidence that He will likewise bring to pass what He has prophesied for a future time.

Atonement: Made Complete by the Blood of Christ

Atonement: Made Complete by the Blood of Christ
In the Old Testament, in order to be made right with God, there was a temporary way into God's presence once a year on the day of atonement. This set time was reoccurring and something that God laid out as a shadow that pointed to the shed blood of Christ sufficient to cover us once and for all. His shed blood, unlike any other blood sacrifice, had and still has the power to wash and cleanse us, to forgive, to restore, to reconcile and to bring us back into communion and fellowship with God. All that's required is simple faith in His finished work. Leviticus 16 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

With God’s Purpose Comes His Word of Promise

With God’s Purpose Comes His Word of Promise
We can see a dimension of Christ's work in the Old Testament with Abraham's willingness to submit to the trial of offering his only begotten son. When we go through trials in our lives, we often wonder about the purpose of it all. God has a purpose for our trials. If we trust Him and His word of promise He will bring us through to victory.

The Lord’s Passover: God’s Ultimate Revelation in Christ

The Lord’s Passover: God’s Ultimate Revelation in Christ
It is important to study the Old Testament to understand how God unfolds the revelation of Christ in the New Testament. The Lord's Passover and the exodus out of Egypt's bondage point to Christ's delivering sacrifice. Just as the children of Israel had to apply the blood of the lamb to the door to be spared from death, we must apply the shed blood of Christ to our hearts. The whole event is a template for us as we act in faith today and receive His deliverance from the bondage of sin and death.
