Commentary on "Confidence in the Prophetic Gift"

MARK MARTIN

 

Day 6: Thursday, March 26, 2009

The lesson states: “Read Luke 24:13-27, the story of Jesus and the two disciples on the road to Emmaus. What did He point them to in order to persuade then that Jesus of Nazareth was, indeed, the Messiah? Why is that answer so important to us, particularly in the context of the prophetic gift?”

Jesus pointed His two followers to all the Messianic prophecies in Scripture, which must have been a long and fascinating walk.

The Bible shares that Jesus quoted the Scripture which is His model for us to follow. This answer is important to us because only in Scripture can we determine what is true and that because Scripture is our final authority in everything…only the prophetic gifts exercised in Scripture logically matter to Bible-believers and to the Lord.

 

Summary

1. The prophets pointed to Jesus – He fulfilled the prophecies God gave to them.
2. Jesus is God’s final word to this world (Hebrews 1:1-2).
