The History of Redemption John Knox Institute

The Lord reveals himself as the God who saves his people in order that he might dwell in their midst—in this world and the world to come.

God’s people forfeited by their sin all rights to approach God’s Holy dwelling place, except through the blood of Christ’s sacrifice.

God dwells among his people, but he can only be approached through an appointed high priest who offers an acceptable sacrifice for sin.

God redeems his people in order to bring them to the promised land of his heavenly inheritance, where he will dwell with them for all of eternity.

David’s future Son will be greater than David, as the King of kings, and his kingdom will be an eternal kingdom.

God provides his church with a permanent book of inspired songs in which we sing to Christ, of Christ and with Christ.
