Contributed by Scott Hamilton on Jan 18, 2007

Advocate

Contributed by Don Campbell on Feb 21, 2023

When we examined the word "atonement," we discovered that the idea of compensation is paramount in the Old Testament. In the New Testment we discovered that Jesus is the compensation for our sins, and to offer anything else is to insult the Spirit of grace.

ADVOCATE Last week we examined the word atonement, and we found that the word is rooted in the Old Testament, where one who committed sin had to offer a sacrifice to compensate for the sin. We closed with 1 John 2:1-2, as translated by the NIV My dear children, I write this to you so that you ...read more

But

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on May 28, 2018

Contributed by Ron Callen on Mar 9, 2007

In the Old Testament, God instructed His people to completely destroy their enemies. But now we are living in the day of grace. In the sermon today we will see that Jesus came not to destroy men’s lives but to save them.
