Israel's Peace

GREAT CHRISTOLOGICAL SERMON THAT MAKES SENSE OF THE O.T. ANTICIPATION OF THE MESSIAH (SON OF DAVID).

Israel had been anticipating the coming of Messiah's reign to rid them of their enemies forever, ushering them into a time of peace far greater than Solomon's reign.

Here we see that Israel's enemies are not merely flesh & blood, but rather sin, death, guilt, and the Devil. Only one Davidic King could ever do this, Jesus Christ.

The long-awaited King has conquered true Israel's enemies decisively, but in a way few ever could have predicted. Christ has purchased eternal peace for His people as the Suffering Servant, the Son who would give His life for His people's sins.
