Nixon looks for Jesus in the Bible’s beginning – in places where most Christians would not normally seek Him  places where His presence is not obvious. A popular and practiced preacher  Nixon draws new  refreshing lessons from the familiar  well-rehearsed stories in Genesis: Creation  Adam and Eve  Cain and Abel  Enoch  Noah  and Abraham.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eWe must recognize  however  that searching for the glory of Christ anywhere in Scripture has its consequences.  For wherever we find Him  cast our gaze on Him  and get a clearer picture of His beauty  we will see ourselves with increased clarity  and we will always suffer by comparison. Christ clearly revealed casts our beauty  our strength  our wisdom  our self-confidence in the dust.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eThe Old Testament prophets who were looking for the Messiah exemplified the attributes of Christ in ways even they didn’t fully understand. Through them we see how it is that Jesus of Nazareth fulfilled all righteousness by exhibiting all the graces of God in every stage of His life. He is the ultimate meaning of Eden’s lamb  of Noah’s ark  of Sodom’s destruction  of Abraham’s ram in the thicket.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eThrough the filter of Jesus Christ  even the metaphors  shadows  and symbols of Genesis reveal Redemption anew as that which compels us to complete self-abandonment and reliance on Him. Our experience with him will be all the sweeter for having searched Him out and brought Him forth from the murky shadows and cryptic symbols of Genesis into the clear and glorious light of revelation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eOpen the eyes of our hearts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41329227104307,"sku":"0816325057","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0103\/8902\/8915\/files\/0816325057jpg.jpg?v=1774919154","url":"https:\/\/clovisabc.com\/products\/redemption-in-genesis-the-crossroads-of-faith-and-reason-softcover","provider":"ClovisABC.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
