Letter From God 3
Promised Messiah as the God-Man Savior
The Lord Jesus Christ as the King of Kings
WRITING “LETTER FROM GOD” 3
I wrote this study guide after teaching these
messages to the young people of the Bible Doctrine Church of West Michigan
in Allendale. These messages were written with the hope that you may enjoy
them and find your reason to stay in God’s plan and on the path
He has chosen for you.
While studying these messages, we found the
exciting events related to the birth of the Lord Jesus. We heard the high-ranking
angel Gabriel give the announcements of the Lord’s coming to Zacharias
and to Joseph and Mary. On the night of His birth, we heard another spectacular
angelic announcement given to the shepherds, and we learned about the
Special Star that guided the wise men from their country of Persia to
Bethlehem.
We discovered the fascinating way God protected
the royal-line of King David for the arrival of the promised Messiah as
the God-Man Savior. In awe, we searched God’s Old Testament letter
for the many predictions and promises about the coming Messiah. These
predictions portrayed a picture of the coming birth, death, and victorious
resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We were shocked to learn how the Lord Jesus
was betrayed by one of His own disciples! We followed the unfair and cruel
treatment of Jesus by the high priest Caiaphas, by the Roman governor
Pontius Pilate, and by King Herod, ruler of Galilee. We heard the final
command of Pilate, who ordered the Lord Jesus to be whipped and handed
over to the Roman soldiers to be crucified.
At the site of the execution, we watched the
Roman soldiers fasten the hands and feet of the Lord Jesus to the crossed
wooden beams. After three hours of darkness, we heard the powerful words
of our Lord, “It is finished.” The work of taking care of
the sin-separation problem was complete. All the predictions and promises
were not only fulfilled, but fit together perfectly at this one central
point of history.
The message of the empty tomb comes through
loud and clear. Death and Satan were defeated once and for all. The “Operation
Grace” redemption solution is now in place and the Lord Jesus remains
the victorious Christ forever and ever!
We watched in amazement as the Lord Jesus Christ
departed in His resurrection body to the third heaven! There as the God-Man
Savior, He was given the title of King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
