We’re exploring the Drama of Redemption, skimming through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Let’s begin with the Old Testament, and see how God initiates 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 creation die without hope. He put in motion a plan to redeem those who believe in His sacrifice: Jesus on the cross.

The Apostle Paul did some terrible things before his Damascus Road experience with Jesus. In writing to his son in the faith Timothy, Paul recounts his bad decisions, and then Paul tells of the boundless grace of God.

Paul, formerly known as Saul, had persecuted the new church with zeal, watching with glee as Stephen was stoned. Then his conversion on the Damascus Road changed everything. How did he later comprehend his violent actions?

Bad decisions have bad consequences, often affecting the lives of those close to us. How do we unravel the messes we make when we do not follow God’s guidance? How do we handle the problems we initiated before we came to Christ?

King Asa was faithful to God, except at the end of his life. Sadly, his finish line was marred by the consequences of a bad choice. What can we learn from one man’s failure? Can we conclude the race of life well?

At the end of his reign, King Asa’s long faithfulness to God crumbled. He bribed a nearby King with the temple’s gold and silver. Politics can corrupt the best of men, and Asa was no exception.

All the webs we weave through deception entangle us in unintended consequences. One good king of God’s people found this out the hard way, and he failed near the finish line, leaving Israel in a state of war.
