Module II.
Scott Hahn's Lectures |
Module II presents a broad overview of salvation history. The next five presentations will focus on how the Family of God developed throughout Biblical history. This Family of God begins with the marital covenant established with Adam and Eve and reaches its fulfillment in the international or universal covenant established by Jesus Christ with His followers, the Catholic Church. Scott draws from his encyclopedic knowledge of the Old Testament to show that since the Old Testament was a prototype of what was to be fulfilled with the coming of the Messiah, the better we understand the Old Testament, the greater appreciation we will have for God's handiwork in preparing His children for this awesome gift of salvation and divine sonship.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This program discusses how God the Creator entered into a covenant with
His creation: making Himself our Father, us creatures His children and
the universe His glorious temple.
This program concludes the overview of salvation history from Adam to
Noah.
This program begins with the covenant with Noah and shows how the human
family became divided into tribes. God chose one of these tribes,
Abraham's, with which to make a blood covenant of faith and fidelity.
Scott then shows how this covenant with Abraham is made manifest with the
twelve tribes of Israel: making them His own national family and a
priestly people.
This program continues with a look at the Davidic Kingdom and at how
God's covenant with David transforms Israel into a kingdom designed to
teach His wisdom to the nations. It is this kingdom that will be the
prototype of the Kingdom of God, the Catholic Church, not yet established
in its perfection here on earth.
This final program of the salvation history series brings it all
together. All of the covenants of the Old Testament, all of the promises
God made to His people are fulfilled in the New Covenant of Christ and
His Church.
