This Sunday, we continue our journey through a handful of Old Testament texts that anticipate and point forward to the Messiah, and savior of the world – Jesus Christ.

Last week, we saw how Jesus was the fulfillment of the entire Old Testament office of prophet. How He speaks God’s Word to God’s people.

And this Sunday, we will see how Jesus is the fulfillment of the entire Old Testament office of king. How He sovereignly and righteously rules over His people. How He leads them, and protects them, and provides for them, and gives them rest, for ever and ever.

The text that we will be examining is 2 Samuel 7. It is a text that is referred to by theologians as the Davidic Covenant – God’s covenant with David to eventually raise up a king like Him from among His offspring to rule over His people.

See you on Sunday.
