Glorious Redemptive Act of the Sanctuary of God


Book Description

After the fall of Adam and Eve, God instituted a plan of action to restore His creation to a loving relationship with Him. But before God sent His Son to serve as the atoning sacrifice for the sins of the world, He sought to develop a covenant relationship with His people to prepare them for the Messiah and their role in spreading the Word of God to a fallen world. God sought to be a sanctuary--a place of refuge or safety--for His people. He sought to dwell among them and teach them His ways. He sought to point them to the coming Messiah and the work of atonement that Jesus would perform. After Christ's incarnation, life and ministry, death on the cross, and ascension, God once again sought to be a sanctuary for His fledgling church by dwelling in them through the Holy Spirit. Glorious Redemptive Act of the Sanctuary of God examines the wilderness sanctuary service, the earthly/human sanctuary, and the heavenly sanctuary to gain a better understanding of God's plan for His people in the closing days of earth's history. The time is short, and we must be ready!

The Redemption of the Jews


Book Description

Isaiah 6:9 is a prophecy to Israel that they will "hear but not understand"; that they will "see but not perceive" this word from God to the nation was evident even when Jesus, the Messiah, came to Israel. They heard Him and saw Him but did not understand Him or perceive who He was. As a result, a "spirit of slumber" is upon the people to this day (Isaiah 29:10, Romans 11:7-8). Nationally, Israel has not yet awakened to belief in Jesus. But there is good news! The Jews are still God's chosen people, and God promises their joyous redemption to come (Romans 11:25-27). Angella Thomas delivers a two-pronged message of hope and challenge: Jewish readers will be given hope when they see the remedy for this historical blindness, and Christians will be challenged to join God in fulfilling the redemption of His people. "But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation...." Isaiah 45:17.
