Summary Of ' The Lord Jesus '

David was always a type of person inclined to be melancholy. He was always a religious person. He made sure that he did everything right, because he was afraid of death. He performed all the duties of religion without a true conversion.2

is always with us. No matter how bad circumstances get, God will be beside us

Chapter four examines the methods Jesus used to teach and spread his messages about the Kingdom of God. Jesus’s primary audience was the common people of first-century Galilee, so he had to adopt creative techniques to teach uneducated people about an unknown “fantastic” topic, the Kingdom of God. His strategy was successful; amassing a great amount of followers and started the foundation of modern Christianity. The methods he utilized, includes teaching through parables, debates and including examples with miracles and enacted parables.

The book is neither meant to be a theological treatise nor an academic exposition but a toolkit to unleash human potentials; a resource for intervention in dealing with human life hurts and as a channel of Gods healing and liberation through Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 shows us how God is our comfort in the midst of suffering so that we can comfort others.

David said “O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him (Psalm 34:8 KJV). He goes on to say “But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night” (Psalm 1:2 KJV) and he hides God’s Word in his heart that he might not sin against Him (Psalm 119:11 KJV).

David knew that no amount of good works he had done, could rectify his guilty state before God. His position of prophet and king did not obligate God to him. David’s longing to be reconciled to God was granted by God’s compassionate acquittal of David despite his guilt. Moo explains that, “David’s words from the psalm confirm Paul’s basic point…a person’s relationship with God comes not by works but by God’s gracious act.” A further examination of David’s proclaimed blessing reveals the state of “being fortunate, happy because of circumstances, favored, and privileged.” William Sanday represents this state of blessedness well by stating, “…David in Psalm 32 describes how God pronounces happy (in the highest sense) those to whom He attributes righteousness without any reference to work.” Paul’s focus on the blessed state of the forgiven sinner in verse 6 is qualified by his citing of David’s proclamation of blessing in psalm 32:

Also, the fact that David wanted to make someone's life better and make them realize that god/love/energy is the power of all humanity. I try to do that. I try my hardest, to make everyone feel special and love themselves.

This was reassuring to read, as I realized some of these people were calling to God asking for His guidance and help much like I do. Lately, I have been able to frequently turn to God with my own struggles and put my life in His hands. However, I have not always found it easy to turn to Him during difficult times. After meditating on this passage I noticed how many times the people referred to the Word of God. Not only did this emphasize the importance and need for Scripture but it showed me that the Bible should be my go to no matter what I am feeling. I should turn to Scripture so that I am able to gain new wisdom and knowledge about Christ and my current situations. In the end, it is the Word of God that trains and equips us to do good works as His disciples to glorify

‘I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.—Psalm 193’ Olson

Out of the depths of pain and sorrow, the believer's heart cries out: "I trust in you, O Lord: 'I say, you are my God."' (Psalms

Joshua 1:9; "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

“The Lord is my rock and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my Buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

Introduction: God guides and protects us through all crisis by showing his power in faith to overcome. Sometimes we ask God “help us” or “save us” only when a crisis is present in our lives and forget

The Book of Psalms is the Book of Prayer. Whoever wants to learn to pray let him pray to David and whoever prays with the psalms, David shall be a teacher for him, how he should pray as a father that shall hold his son's hand to teach him how to write. In the Book of Psalms we know ourselves and the weaknesses and pitfalls that are in us and we find in this travel fall and the advancement of prayers of repentance and thanksgiving and praise. Psalms are filled with many prophecies concerning the incarnation, pain and resurrection of the Lord. It is the greatest witness to the life of the Lord Jesus, so Peter said that David is a prophet (Acts 30: 2).
