Welcome to a year in the Bible with daily grace. From Eden to eternity, the Bible

tells one big story of redemption. My name is Tiffany and I want to spend a

few minutes with you every day walking through the Bible chronologically.

Together, we will explore God's sovereign plan as the events of scripture unfold and point to Jesus.

Hey friends, Tiffany here, welcome back to the podcast.

As we journey from Eden to eternity, we continue to make our way through the Gospels today.

Today marks a shift in the disciples understanding of who Jesus is as he asks

them, who do you say I am?

And he further explains his suffering and death.

Through these passages, we will see

the importance of Christ's message to take up our cross and follow him.

But first we begin with another of Jesus's many interactions with the Pharisees and Sadducees. As always, these men set out to

test and trap Jesus, asking him to show them a sign from heaven. But Jesus rebukes them, telling them that they read the

appearance of the sky, yet they do not read the signs of the times. Jesus tells them that the only sign they will receive is the sign of

Jonah. We studied the sign of Jonah several days ago in Matthew 12 and Luke 11. Just as Jonah was swallowed by the fish and seemingly

died before being spit back out to life three days later, Jesus would literally die and lay in the

tomb for three days and then be resurrected. This evil adulterous nation will experience the greatest sign the world has ever known,

and they will turn a blind eye and harden their hearts.

But for those who repent and believe, like those Jonah preached to in Ninevas so long ago, they will experience eternal life.

Jesus then left the Pharisees and Sages and

returned to the disciples.

He warns them not to trust the Levin of the Pharisees and Sages. This confused the disciples and they told Jesus that they didn't bring any bread.
