Sermons About Nations
Part 5: A Blessing To The Nations
A Blessing To The Nations The gospel preached to Abraham was good news that God would bless the nations through Abraham. God truly would redeem the earth. This good news finds its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus. After rising from the dead, Jesus explained to his disciples the story of Israel, the story of Abraham. His explanation is radical--Israel's story was always the story of Jesus.

Part 1: The Promise Of Salvation
The story of the world moves quickly from the tranquility of the garden paradise to the chaos of life lived outside of the garden as a result of the fall. The question that plagues the first eleven chapters of the Bible, and mankind in general, is how will the creator restore his creation. Genesis 12 provides the answer. God chooses Abraham and through his covenant with Abraham promises salvation to the world.

Psalm 67: God's Wonderful Plan for the World
“God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.” Many of us have heard these words uttered in church services and on TV by televangelists. It is sometimes referred to as the “wonderful plan” hook that many evangelists and preachers use to convince people they need to accept Christ as their personal lord and savior.It is true God has a plan for our lives, but it is a much bigger plan than just saving us as individuals. He has a global plan which can be called wonderful in the truest sense. But so often our circumstances and personal sense of happiness cause us to completely miss the forest for the trees. We can't see past the broken down car or being overlooked for promotion so we lose sight of God's plan for the world – that all the ends of the earth fear him.

Psalm 2: Good News For Rebels
We are all rebels – each and every one of us.Humanity's rebellion began with the very first human beings Adam and Eve knew God's requirements but raised their fists toward his throne. They placed themselves in the position of God and decided for themselves what was right and wrong. This was rebellion – an act of treason against their maker and king. Ever since, humanity has been in rebellion against God. The Psalmist wants to clearly state this fact: God has appointed a day when he will bring all rebellion on earth to and end!
