Arriving, Pt. 4: Fulfillment
from New Life Downtown · host Patton Dodd
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus says he didn't come to abolish the "law and the prophets," but to fulfill them. But what does that fulfillment look like? How are we supposed to understand the Old Testament and how Jesus is a continuation of Israel's story? And why does it matter to our own stories and the story of our church? Guest speaker Dr. Patton Dodd examines the implications of Jesus' words for how we understand two distinct but related Bible stories--the Tower of Babel in the Old Testament, and the fall of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost in the New Testament
