0:00 Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research.0:10 Partakers of the promise that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs and of the same body and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel, Ephesians 30:22 6. There are many Christians who regard themselves as almost exclusively New Testament believers, arguing that the Old Testament was for the Jews under the dispensation of0:34 law and thus not applicable to Christians today. Nothing could be further from the truth. While the old animal sacrifices, temple rituals, and Levitical priesthoods have indeed0:46 been superseded by Christ's 1 sacrifice for sins forever, there are many exceeding great and precious promises of the Old Testament that can be properly and joyfully0:57 appropriated by Christians. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable, wrote Paul, speaking particularly of the Old Testament Scriptures.1:09 In the context of our verse for the day, Paul is stressing that his own new revelations given in connection with the Christian gospel actually involve bringing Jews and Gentiles1:20 together as 1 body in Christ. The dispensation of the grace of God by revelation he made known to me, he wrote, but in previous ages, it had not been made1:32 known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. And what was it that had not been made known? The hidden mystery was simply1:44 that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs with the Jews, and therefore partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel. Thus, Gentile believers can now share in all the
1:56 gracious promises of God in the Old Testament, except those directly dealing with the future of Israel as a nation, that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through
2:07 Jesus Christ, Galatians 3 14.
