Palmer Robertson (ThM, ThD, Union Theological Seminary, Virginia) is the founder of Consummation Ministries. By each witnessing distinctive aspects of the coming of the King and the establishment of his kingdom, the gospel writers boldly describe a new phase in redemptive revelation. In the rich tapestry of the Gospels, we see Christ overcome the powers of Satan, gradually unveil his identity by words and works, call and commission disciples, die on the cross, be raised, and ascend to heaven. The first volume, The Testimony of the Four Gospels, emphasizes the eyewitness character of the four men who attest to the supernatural in-breaking of the Christ. Noted theologian O. Palmer Robertson’s three-volume The Christ of the Consummation explores progressive revelation across the redemptive history of the New Testament.

We praise Him by witnessing of Him ( v.We praise Him by remembering His glory.We praise Him by acknowledging He is King of His Kingdom ( v.We praise Him by declaring His title ( vs.Do our possessions possess or do they bless? We give with a proper perspective of what we possess.Not as a work based on a rule or formula. We give in love remembering how much we have been forgiven.We give in service with a heart of humility.We give in light of the death of Jesus on the cross.I’ve also included Pastor’s outline (Thank you Jen!), as well as links to the verses referenced.
