Join us as we explore Jesus Christ's role as the ultimate mediator who established a new covenant filled with better promises and eternal hope. We draw from the scriptures of 1 Timothy and Hebrews and discuss the responsibility believers have in embodying the ministry of reconciliation and becoming true ambassadors for Christ.
We consider the timeless stories of mediation found within scripture, from the unbreakable bond between Jonathan and David to Moses's courageous negotiations with Pharaoh. Witness Jonathan's selfless protection of David and the lasting covenant they forge, while considering Moses's pivotal role in leading the Israelites toward freedom. Through these narratives, we uncover the profound lessons of loyalty, faithfulness, and the enduring impact of keeping one's word in the quest for justice and liberation. Revisit the dramatic account of Abigail's intervention between David and Nabal, where wisdom and humility shine through as powerful tools for peace. Abigail's astute actions not only prevent bloodshed but earn her respect and admiration, highlighting the themes of intercession and forgiveness.Â
As we close, we reflect on our calling to be peacemakers, inspired by Jesus' teachings, while emphasizing the spiritual calling to pursue peace in every relationship, guided by the Spirit to bring harmony into our lives and the lives of others.
