Luke 4:16-21

What was the Old Testament actually saying, from Genesis to Malachi? Dr. Abel Damina teaches that every prophet, inspired by the Holy Spirit, was speaking one consistent message: "the sufferings of Christ and the glory that will follow." He shows that Jesus Himself grew up studying these Scriptures to discover what had been written about Him, so that in the synagogue at Nazareth He could say, "this day is this Scripture fulfilled in your ears." In this message from Reintroducing Jesus, Beyond Religion, you'll see the Bible not as a collection of separate stories, but as one message pointing to one person.

Being a messenger for Jesus is the role of every Christian.  But you may be asking, “what’s the best way to deliver that Good News?”  Well, currently on Focal Point, we’re exploring that very question. Our series is called "Presenting Christ".  On this edition, Mike Fabarez instructs us on offering the clear, and simple, message of the gospel. We don’t need clever tactics or in-depth psychology, but we will need the Word of God!

When sharing the gospel message with others, we have a few tools at our disposable. We might use tracts, apologetics, even our own personal testimonies. But if we decide to follow the pattern of the Master Evangelist Himself, we'll find that the biggest resource for sharing the gospel is the Word of God. On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez explains how Jesus used the Bible to win hearts and minds for the Kingdom of God.

There are many gifted evangelists and missionaries we can look up too. But as ambassadors for Jesus, there is no better model for sharing the Good News than Jesus Himself. How did the Son of God go about delivering the message of repentance, forgiveness and grace?  On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez is showing us how Jesus relied on the power of God’s written Word to share the Good News.
