Romance Of Redemption
Adrian Rogers
Would you take your bibles please today and turn with me to Genesis chapter twenty four, Genesis chapter twenty four. Now, if those of you who are bible students know right away we're in a very beautiful and sacred section of God's word. I want to speak to you today on this subject, THE ROMANCE OF REDEMPTION. One of the things that has amazed me every time I see someone do it is to watch an artist paint a portrait. Now, I've not set through the entire painting of artist who is really a, really skilled artist and watch him paint a portrait, but sometimes even in county fairs or somewhere I've been amazed at how an artist with a few strokes can pick up the likeness of an individual.

What a divine, wonderful conformation of the inspiration of the holy spirit of God we see in this twenty fourth chapter of Genesis, a portrait of the Lord Jesus Christ who is indeed the son of God. Now, he is prophesied, typified, delineated, described here in Isaac. Isaac is a type of the Lord Jesus Christ. Isaac was the son of Abraham. He was a son that was born of a miracle. He was the son of promise. He was the son of prophesy, the son of miracle birth. Isaac you will remember in Genesis chapter two was sacrificed on Mt. Moriah and he was raised from the dead there, now, not literally, but ...
