Greetings dear listeners, welcome to our third talk in our series on the Old Testament Survey. In our last talk, we introduced all the four categories of books that make up the Old Testament; law, history, wisdom and prophecy. We mentioned that we will look into each category on its own. So today we begin with the first category “the law”and will speak two sessions on this category. For this first session, we will explain the purpose and significance of the law in the Old Testament.
In the past 12 episodes – that’s Part One of this series – we’ve journeyed through four milestones – represented by Gilgal, Bethel, Jericho and Jordan. Each milestone reveals facets of our lives which must be engaged and dealt with before we can progress to the next stage.
Today, we begin Part Two which provides practical applications to prepare to ‘run with horses’, that is, strengthen our spirit, restore our soul, build our capacity to serve God in our spheres of influence, and to eventually finish well.
