Sermon: Prayers of the Past, Hope For the Future - Part 2
Scripture: Psalm 8
Speaker: Rev. Dan Wunderlich
Description: Last week, we introduced the idea that the Psalms are prayers of the past that offer hope for the future. This week, we see that the hope offered isn’t just some general hope about God’s future faithfulness. Rather, some of them became key points that New Testament authors, and even Jesus himself, would use to prove Jesus’ identity as the promised messiah.
Sermon Series: Learning to Read the Bible
Even if we accept that the Bible is not a textbook or moral instruction manual, we can still desire more clarity. For example, why are so many details in some of the stories either vague or missing completely? It turns out that this isn’t a mistake or just some cultural quirk of ancient literature, but it is an intentional tool of the biblical authors.
