Description:

Hosts Shelly and June Volk continue their series on Psalm 22, focusing on the shift from the Messiah’s suffering to the triumph of His resurrection and global kingdom. Exploring key Old and New Covenant connections, the Volks discuss the true meaning of revelation knowledge (epignosis), the promise of the New Covenant written on the heart, and how the call to repentance (shuv) brings both Jew and Gentile into worship before the God of Israel.

Key Takeaways:

From Suffering to Glory: Psalm 22 transitions from the agony of the cross to a declaration of global praise, showing how Messiah’s ultimate victory brings joy to the nations.
Experiential Knowledge (Epignosis): Based on Ephesians 1:17–18, true knowledge of God is spiritual revelation that shapes how believers think, act, and live.
The New Covenant Premise: The New Testament builds directly on Jeremiah 31:31 and Ezekiel 36:26, where God writes His law upon the heart rather than tablets of stone.
The Call to Repent (Shuv): Psalm 22:27 prophesies that all ends of the earth will "turn" (shuv / repent) back to the Lord, pointing to a restored world under His kingdom.
Eternal Perspective in Dark Times: Believers are encouraged to look past present world turmoil and anchor their faith in God's eternal promises and sovereign rule.
