“Jacob Have I Loved…” – God’s Foretold Work – (Session 50)
Our last session was an overview of Malachi, the last Old Testament book of the Christian canon. Here we probe such controversial statements as “Jacob have I loved, Esau have I hated.”

In this session we probed the mystery of the Gentile age; this largely unforeseen large gap of time between the two comings of Messiah. Our texts included Hosea ch 5 & 6, Dt 32:21. We searched out the great “untils” such as Hos 5:15 and Mt 23:39.

For a nation has come up against My land, Strong, and without number; His teeth are the teeth of a lion, And he has the fangs of a fierce lion. Joel 1:5 Consecrate a fast, Call a sacred assembly; Gather the elders And all the inhabitants of the land Into the house of the Lord your God, And cry out…

In the timeline of our series “God’s Foretold Work” we are approaching the return of exiled Israel from Babylon to their homeland and promised inheritance. However, in this session, we took a step back and considered the complaints of the prophet Habakkuk, as he witnessed the wicked swallowing up those more righteous than themselves. We looked for the same consolation…

In this session we looked at chapters 38 and 39 of Ezekiel. There we will be considered the question posed by scripture “Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets?” And, is this “Gog” of Ezekiel the same vile person we’ve been considering in the visions of Daniel?

In this session we looked at Chapter 7 of Daniel. This was possibly be our last stop in our whirlwind tour of this book which began with Jesus’ own recommendation to come here to get understanding of the abomination that causes desolation (See Sessions 42 and 43).

“Out of One of Them Came Forth a Little Horn” – God’s Foretold Work – (Session 43)
In this session, we continued to hover in the later chapters of Daniel, with a focus on Chapter 8. Here Daniel has a vision of a ram and a goat, and is given an interpretation of what it means, both for what is now history, and for the future. These sessions draw heavily from the 2010 Convocation on the visions…

In this session, we took up the last chapter (36) of 2nd Chronicles. The last of David’s descendants are removed from the throne by King Nebuchadnezzar, seemingly putting into jeopardy God’s promise to David, “I will establish the throne of his kingdom FOREVER.” These sessions draw heavily from the 2010 Convocation on the visions of Daniel. Videos of those sessions…
