The Gospel, Great Commission, and Implication of Why the Gospel

The Gospel, Great Commission, and Implication of Why the Gospel

Deuteronomy 24:18-22

 
     The Old Testament is the pencil drawing on the canvas, so to speak, of the oil painting of the New Testament.  It is the foundation of the building, or the foreshadow of things that were to come.
 
    
A foreshadow of Jesus, the Gospel, the Great Commission [COMMAND], and the reason why for the Great Commission: "18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the Lord thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
19 When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall b...e for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands.
20 When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt therefore I command thee to do this thing." ((Deuteronomy 24:19-22) : We were once in the kingdom of darkness, REDEEMED (bought) into the Kingdom of God, by Christ's blood, we don't keep the gift of grace to hoard for our self (verses 19-21) our within the church. Then the reason why again in verse 22. See the Gospel application? See the heart and intent of the Old Testament verse?
 
Love in Christ, Jason!
