Jesus' ministry is more than a bubble on the timeline of history. He is part of the grand sweep of the divine drama of God's redemption and salvation. More accurately, Jesus is the centerpiece of God's story of our eternal salvation.
The saddest thing of all is when people walk away from the faith and fail to pass down to their children. A dismissive yeah, yeah, yeah attitude is a dangerous step that leads in that direction. These Old Testament events are important of themselves and help us more fully appreciate and thank God for Jesus' redemptive grace and sacrificial love. Jesus' work is not a yeah, yeah, yeah matter. ... His salvation is properly a glorious, Yes! Yes! Yes!
