The special guest for this particular program is Dr. Ron Rhodes, president of REASONING FROM THE SCRIPTURES MINISTRIES (P.O. Box 2526, Frisco, TX 75034), & author of more than 50 books including the "Reasoning from the Scriptures" series dealing with Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, Roman Catholics & Muslims; "Answering the Objections of Atheists, Agnostics, & Skeptics," "The Truth Behind Ghosts, Mediums, & Psychic Phenomena," "Christ Before the Manger: The Life & Times of the Preincarnate Christ," & many others. The first half of the show covers the Biblical teachings concerning angels while the second half of the show deals with the Old Testament references to the Messiah, the preincarnate Christ & the many prophecies concerning Jesus. ANGELS: You've probably seen depictions of angels in popular TV shows & movies, & you may have read about angel encounters. However, these accounts have very little in common with the Bible's portrayal of angels. The Bible answers questions such as: WHERE DID ANGELS COME FROM?, ARE ALL ANGELS GOOD?, WHAT ARE ANGELS LIKE?, WHAT DO ANGELS DO?, HOW ARE ANGELS ORGANIZED? & SHOULD WE COMMUNICATE WITH ANGELS? Keep in mind that Revelation chapter 12 in the Bible gives a fascinating account of the war in heaven among the angels. JESUS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT: WHO IS THE ANGEL OF THE LORD IN THE OLD TESTAMENT? Why does the Old Testament have hundreds of prophecies concerning the coming Messiah which were actually fulfilled in one man, namely Jesus Christ? These prophecies clearly identify the Messiah as: 1. He, a male child, will be born of the seed of a woman, 2. He will come from the race of the Jews, & specifically from the seed of Abraham. |
