The following resource is from Desiring God.org.

Let's start with a roadmap of where we're going and then we'll get on the road together.

We're gonna walk back or travel back into eternity past

and see the Lamb of God slain

before the foundation of the world in the mind of God.

And then we're going to go forward to eternity future

and see the slain Lamb as the song, the central song of the universe.

And we're going to circle back to the center of history, not necessarily the temporal center, but the center of significance,

and see the actual slaying of the Lamb of God.

So that's our first journey back forward center. We're going to go to those same three

vistas again and this time not focus on the Lamb, but on the people of the Lamb.

So we go to eternity past in our second trip through and we see the people appointed or predestined or written in a book

with their names.

And then we come straight chronologically to the center of history and see the people who were

appointed purchased by the blood of the lamb.

And then we make our last trip to the end of history

and into eternity future.

And we see the appointed purchased people praising the Lamb with the song of the

universe, the Lamb that was slain.

So those are two trips through eternity and then we'll bring it

here into these rooms in Atlanta and Houston and talk about the meaning of those three sites for your life.

What does it mean that the land was slain in the mind of God forever past?
