Viewing Jesus in all Scripture, and viewing Old Testament Scripture in the light of Jesus.

11:33 Old Testament violence

When reading the Old Testament, Is this about Jesus, or is this about us?

14:12 Scripture is not the Word of God

20:11 The Thief is the death dealer, God is the Life Giver (John 10:10)

When the Old Testament says that God is the Death Dealer it is because we are telling the story. It is how we see God.

23:20 Finding Christ in people who are not yet converted to Christianity

31:07 Is the Love of God 'Essence' or 'Attribute'?

35:00 What is wrath? Violent anger that does harm. What about God's wrath?

37:58 Consequences vs punishment

41:40 Shame causes us to create a false image of God and interact with Him on that basis.
