Christ taught out of the Scriptures, Luke 24:27<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Luke 24:27  And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This verse is found in the account of that most fascinating encounter of two weary and discouraged disciples who were headed home on the road to Emmaus. An apparent stranger joined with them as they were walking, and joined in the conversation.<\/p>\n<p>This is one conversation I wish we had the details in full. There are those who claim to have &#8220;the rest of the story,&#8221; and assert we must accept the tradition preserved by their church, because the Bible does not give the full record of all Jesus said and did.<\/p>\n<p>I have publically challenged those who make this claim to give full proof of it by sharing with the rest of us poor benighted souls that information their church possesses which they claim we do not. Furnish a link to that recorded Tradition, so I and I&#8217;m sure many others who are most interested can read &#8220;the rest of the story.&#8221; Since this message of our Lord Jesus Christ was given twice on that day, surely the &#8220;One True Church&#8221; has not lost the full account so briefly given by Luke.<\/p>\n<p>No one has ever yet furnished me that all-important link. To me that is proof enough that this church does not have what it claims to have, &#8220;The Rest of the Story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Luke does furnish an amazing key to what the rest of the story must have been on that Road to Emmaus in Luke 24:26,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Luke 24:26  Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The lesson our Lord Jesus Christ taught out of the Scriptures that day can be given under a two-point outline: (1) First the suffering, (2) then the glory.<\/p>\n<p>This is the divinely provided key that unlocks Messianic Prophecy.<\/p>\n<p>Peter makes reference to this crucial key in his first letter,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1Pe 1:11  Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand <b>the sufferings of Christ<\/b>, and <b>the glory that should follow<\/b>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A careful study of the Messianic Prophecies alluded to by Christ and Peter fully substantiates the validity of this key. The key comes straight out of the Bible itself in what we call the Old Testament. I have given those references most fully in <i>Nelson&#8217;s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible<\/i> at this very passage. A number of the prophecies specify exactly this order&#8211;first the suffering, then the glory&#8211;in the context of a single literary unit, such as Psalm 22, where verses 1-21 speak of the Suffering Messiah, but verses 22-31 speak of the Glory of the Messiah. Again, in Psalm 69, verses 1-21 speak of the Suffering Messiah, while verses 30-36 speak of His future Glory. You can learn much more by consulting the cross references given at 1 Peter 1:11 in either <i>The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/i> or <i>Nelson&#8217;s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>Very clearly, the Bible is a self-explanatory Book. It is understandable. By comparing Scripture with Scripture, we can learn just what it is that our Lord Jesus Christ must have taught the two disciples on the Road to Emmaus from the Bible itself.<\/p>\n<p>Have you ever noticed that Christ appeals to the Bible, the Scriptures, as the basis for His teaching? He never appeals to Tradition. We need to be sure that we follow His example.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure you are deriving your spiritual food from the right source! Any other source outside the Bible itself is spiritual poison, and most definitely will lead only to spiritual death.<\/p>\n<p>I have used strong words because this is a most crucial issue. It is a matter of spiritual life or spiritual death. You must choose spiritual life if ever you are to have it.
