1The Intertestamental Period
When you turn the page from the end of the Old Testament to the beginning of the New, you’ve crossed a gap of about four centuries. This period was a fascinating one as figures like Aristotle and Alexander the Great made their mark on civilization. It was during these same years that the Jews endured severe persecution, leading them to long for God’s promised Messiah. In this message, Dr. R.C. Sproul shows how the intertestamental period set the stage for the arrival of Jesus Christ.
2John the Baptist
For four hundred years, the prophets in Israel had been silent. Then suddenly, a man emerged from the wilderness, announcing the arrival of the kingdom of God. John the Baptist revived the prophetic ministry of Elijah by calling the Hebrews to repent of their sins. He also fulfilled the Old Testament prophecy of a forerunner who would prepare God’s people for the long-awaited Messiah. In this message, Dr. R.C. Sproul explains the significant role that John the Baptist played at the beginning of Jesus’ ministry.
