Rescue and freedom

The Lord brings slaves out of Egypt and, in Christ, brings sinners out of bondage. Exodus and the Gospels belong together here.

The law of the Lord

Instruction for a redeemed people. Psalm 119 delights in it; Jesus fulfills it; Paul explains its role in the gospel.

Kingship

Israel asks for a king; God promises David an everlasting house; Jesus is proclaimed King. 1–2 Samuel, the Psalms, and the Gospels meet here.

Wisdom

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Proverbs, Job, and Ecclesiastes wrestle with skill for living and the limits of human answers. Christ is later called the wisdom of God.

The prophetic word

Prophets call people back to the covenant and point forward. Isaiah through Malachi, and then John the Baptist, keep this office alive.

Job, the Psalms, Lamentations, and the cross teach a faith that does not deny pain. God is near to the brokenhearted.

From Abraham and Hannah to Jesus and the church in Acts, Scripture is full of people who speak to God and are heard.

Mission to the nations

Abraham is blessed to be a blessing. The Psalms and prophets invite the nations; Acts and the letters send the church.

Hope and the last things

God will raise the dead, judge with justice, and make all things new. Daniel, the Gospels, 1 Thessalonians, and Revelation keep this hope alive.
