Appointed for service -- Ready to roll: Prepared for the promised land -- Living as the people who bear God's name: Striking out: From Mount Sinai to Mount Zion -- What Yahweh sees: The faithful few -- Just give me Jesus: The gospel witness -- Blob tag: The mission of Jesus -- Who let you in? Gentiles and the mission of God -- Conclusion. |
