Conflict in relationships is inevitable, but healing and reconciliation often is not. Time and again we've tried every option and failed, and all we are left with is a load of guilt and pain. Pastor Erwin Lutzer shows how the blessing the Lord gives to those who suffer unjustly is worth the pain involved. He also illustrates the need to leave our broken relationships in the hands of God and move forward in our lives toward freedom.

The Bible’s central theme: bringing God and humanity together through an atoning sacrifice on the cross, reconciling the two parties. In the Old Testament, this was prefigured using animals at the Temple. The New Testament unveils the real sacrifice that takes away sin.

In the drama of redemption, the Old Testament is a grand prologue. In the New Testament, the great transaction takes place. God’s sacrifice for the sins of the whole world was offered on a cross outside Jerusalem. No playwright could dream of a story so bold, so loving, and so wonderful.

The nation of Israel existed as a fulfillment of God’s promises. Israel was to bring forth a Messiah who would die as an offering for sin. After His sacrifice, He would be raised from the dead, and He will return one day as King over all the earth.

After seventy years of captivity, Israel’s people were allowed to return home. And that’s where we pick up the story in God’s unfolding drama of redemption. God brought salvation through a people, a Messiah, and a great sacrifice.

The Old Testament includes many genres: prophecy, history, law, and even wisdom literature such as Psalms and Proverbs. All of these fit together to give us a big-picture view of God’s work in world history. In this message, we’ll focus on the time when Israel was taken into captivity and its temple destroyed.

Ancient Israel split in two when King Rehoboam unwisely raised taxes. Ten tribes revolted. Jeroboam became their king, ruling in the north. In the south, two tribes became the kingdom of Judah.

As we take a big-picture view of the whole Bible, we’re exploring the Drama of Redemption—a summary of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. In this message we look at the Old Testament and see how God unfolds this dramatic story.

Redemption did not begin when Jesus appeared on earth. In the mind of God, it began before the foundations of the world were laid. Genesis 3:15 depicts a promised Redeemer who would one day crush Satan’s head.

The sins of mankind separated us from our Creator. But God was not content to let His creatures die without hope. He had set in motion a plan to redeem those who believe in the value of a great sacrifice: that of His Son, Jesus Christ.

Ultimately, the key to a clear conscience is to walk in the light and stay out of the darkness. When we stick to that plan, we’ll have the joy of unbroken fellowship with God. In this message we learn how to avoid the traps of sin that seek to ensnare us.
