    The Cities of Refuge are a foreshadow of God’s plan of salvation through Jesus Christ. But how do they resemble Jesus as our refuge? We will explore their names and how they reveal the character of Jesus Christ. And when put together, they reveal how sufficient He is in providing that refuge.

    This week, I’d like to pick up our study on how the Cities of Refuge resemble Jesus, how He is not only our sure refuge, but also how He is our judge, that is, our great High Priest. I’d also like to take a closer look at what Jesus rescues us from and is a refuge in, and what sort of refuge He is

    Even when we are in a place of exile, we must demonstrate unwavering obedience to God just as Joseph did. Joseph could not see all of God’s plan except for the next step.

    Poor baby Jesus! He’s only a small child, and already his life is in danger, as we heard in the passage from Matthew 2:13-23 earlier in this morning’s service. This passage is an example of how the events in the New Testament Gospels are the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. For ...read more

As I sat there and listened and took notes, I couldn’t help to think how we have somehow missed it when it comes to the purpose ...read more
