The Mystery of the Church: Why It’s Not in the Old Testament

B5L9 Why did Jesus stop reading Isaiah 61 in the middle of a sentence in Luke 4? In this Bible study, Les Feldick reveals the incredible reason behind this "interruption" and explains why the Church Age was completely hidden from Old Testament prophecy. You will learn how God’s prophetic clock for Israel stopped, opening the door for the Age of Grace. Les Feldick walks through Psalms 2, Isaiah 61, and Acts 2 to show the difference between Prophecy (God’s plan for Israel) and Mystery (God’s plan for the Church). He explains why Peter didn't understand this interruption at Pentecost and how Jesus hinted at the coming Church Age by omitting the "day of vengeance."
