The Supremacy of the Lord's Anointed

Image
Like many of the psalms, Psalm 2 has two layers of meaning. Both have to do with the concept of the Lord’s Anointed One, but one is the shadow and the other the substance. The immediate meaning that the ancient Israelites would have thought of as they sang it is God’s promise to David to build him a house and for his lineage to rule in Israel forever. The second, greater meaning is how Jesus is the true Anointed One who reigns over the world. 1) Conspiracy against God.  “Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying, ‘Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us’” (Ps. 2:1-3).   The kings of every nation gather together angrily to plot against God. This is not about any particular event in history or the present day, but instead portrays the spirit within the nations. They do not submit themselves to God’s power but look to ...

Most of All

Image
You can tell a lot about a person’s priorities by the way they present themselves. We portray an image to others that represents what it is important to us and how we want people to think of us. Sometimes we do this deliberately and strategically, but it can also be without any forethought. Either way, we learn about ourselves when we consider what we want to be known for most of all. 1) Most of all, I am rich.  The human race has always been obsessed with wealth. Most people want more money than they have, regardless of their current level of wealth. When abused, the drive for more money can lead to overwork (Prov. 23:4-5), get-rich-quick schemes (Prov. 28:19-20), and dishonest gain (Prov. 20:10, 17).   Many are also interested in looking like they have more money than they actually do. We covet status symbols like cars, clothes, and jewelry that will signal to others that we are wealthy. Oftentimes the utility of the item is not even the important part—fake designer bags and...

The Ark of Salvation

Image
2 Peter 2:4-10 uses several examples from biblical history to teach about the final judgment of mankind. One of those is the cataclysmic flood in the days of Noah. We can follow Peter’s  lead and learn many lessons about  salvation and judgment from this event. 1) God is willing to judge evil. God was not impotent or undisturbed in the face of the great evil in the ancient world. God saw their wickedness and the intention of their hearts (Gen. 6:5) and was grieved (v. 6). He determined to bring destruction against the earth on a broad and terrifying scale (v. 7). This was not merely a passing thought—He followed through and the flood came as He planned. Peter tells us what lesson we should learn from this. If God reacted in this way to sin back then and followed through with His judgment, why should we expect that He is any different today? In fact, this is just one example of three that Peter used. If we intend to bet on God suddenly having a different personality and att...
