https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 2 * PART 2 * BOOK 49 Leaving Milk for Meat - Part 2 Hebrews 6:1-4 Let’s go right back into Hebrews chapter 6, we’re still in verse 1. Hebrews 6:1a So Paul says: Hebrews 6:1a Yeah! It’s a progressive revelation from Genesis to the book of Revelation; it’s a progressive revealing of the things of God. You saw in chapter 9 in our last program, that Jesus went everywhere preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom. My, very few people understand that that is not the Gospel of the Grace of God. In verse 5: Matthew 10:5a Matthew 10:5a Go only to the Nation of Israel, to the twelve tribes, to the lost sheep! Romans 15:8 "Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the father:" That Israel was to be the favored nation. And that God the Son would come and be a physical King as well as a Redeemer. And the Nation of Israel could come to that place of blessings. Living in peace and prosperity. Okay? Now reading on in Matthew 10. Let’s look now verse 7. Matthew 10:7 Now let’s jump over to Luke chapter one for just a second and get just a little glimpse of what that was to be for the Nation of Israel. Luke chapter 1 and I’m going to drop in at verse 67. Now, when the King would come, you see, this is what Israel was looking for in fulfillment of the promises made to the fathers. Luke 1:68 "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; (Exclusive? Now, ever since Genesis chapter 12 and the giving of the Abrahamic Covenant, who were God’s people? Israel! See? Now verse 69. Luke 1:69 How many Gentiles are in the House of David? Now verses 70 and 71. Luke 1:70-71 That we should be saved from our (not sins yet but what?) enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;" Goodness gracious, who were Israel’s enemies at the time of Christ’s first advent? If Americans will quit supporting Israel then he can back off too. So that’s basically what’s behind everything is the hate for the Nation of Israel. Luke 1:72-73 "To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, (same fathers that Paul referred to in Romans. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the prophets and so forth.) and to remember his holy covenant; 73. Boy, it’s been a long time since we’ve rehearsed the Abrahamic Covenant on this program. Where God made three basic tenets to that Covenant. Maybe it’s about time. That Abrahamic Covenant comprised, first the promise of a geographical area of land. Secondly, within that land, He would place a nation of people, the favored nation. The Nation of Israel. The Redeemer, the Messiah and that was all promised to Israel. The bloodline of King David and Solomon and Nathan. And through that genealogy then of course, came Jesus of Nazareth. Back to Luke, verse 74, Luke 1:74 Luke 1:75 Alright, now look what Jesus is doing as we read Matthew 16:13. Matthew 16:13 "When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?’" Matthew 16:14 Now verse 15. Matthew 16:15-16 What’s the other word for Christ? Messiah! Christ isn’t his last name; it’s his title. Did Peter have it straight? Yeah! Matthew 16:17 "And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven." What did Jesus say to them? What’s your agenda? Because the moment Jesus spoke, God opened up the understanding of these men. There’s the One Who is fulfilling all the Old Testament promises." God revealed it! heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul." So Peter says, "you’re the Christ." And Jesus said, "Blessed art thou Peter, this is all I wanted to know." Peter’s profession of faith. Death, burial and resurrection. No, Peter had no idea that Christ was going to go to a Cross. Luke 18:31 Well, none of the Jews in Israel understood that that was a reference to a coming crucifixion. But you see, Jesus knew. Now verse 32. Luke 18:32-33 Did Jesus know the end from the beginning? What did Jesus know? Luke 18:34 God did! Alright, now I think I’ve got one more verse we’ve got time for. Acts chapter 1 verse 6. After three years of earthly ministry, proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom. The Good News to Israel, that the King and the Kingdom were ready to be presented: Acts 1:6 "When they therefore, were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom again to Israel?" What’s on their mind? The Kingdom. When Israel could live at peace and prosperity. And I haven’t got time in this program but you remember back in Matthew 19, Peter said, "Well now we left all. Fictitious words? No! #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
