Genesis 29:1-35; Job 38:1-39:30; Matthew 15:29-16:12
Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfil. Matthew 5:17 NKJV
We sometimes may think that the God of the Old Testament is different from that of the New. Jesus reminds us, “If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father” (John 14:7). Many miss this. Why? Because they miss the heart of God in the Old Testament. Rather than crush them, God clothed Adam and Eve and promised a Rescuer. He provided escape in the flood. Despite their constant rebellion, God continued to pursue Israel at every turn. God is and always has been a God of love, grace and mercy in the same manner as He has always been a God of justice. —J. D. Fraser
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus, vast unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean, in its fullness over me. —Mark Ladd
