Jesus is not just one prophet among many. Jesus is The Great Prophet who can reveal God perfectly to us, because he is God and near to God.
Who is this man, Jesus, who’s able to touch unholy things, and make them holy?
God’s plan and pattern for setting down a rule of faith for his people rested on sola scriptura – Scripture alone. Whatever interpretations, truths, and traditions God wanted to be binding for his people, he was careful to hand down in the sacred writings.
This section of history vividly demonstrates how God saves his people: He graciously calls his people out of sin, into his blessing, into faith, and into worship.
