Rev. John Lukomski, co-host of “Wrestling with the Basics” joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Genesis 35.
Is this finally a turning point for Jacob? We thought it might be when the Lord visited him at Bethel or when reconciled with his brother Esau. Yet, we see God visiting Jacob and sustained him through repenting over idols. God kept intervening and once again changed Jacob’s name to Israel. This name change is full of His promise. Through those with Israel’s name the promised Savior was given to us and He continues to carry us as ones with His name marked on us forever. “O Holy Spirit, as You have given us a new name in Christ through Baptism, grant us a turning point that we may drop our idols and follow Your Will. In Christ, Amen”
