Previews of Coming Attractions

IN THE movies, there are previews of coming attractions. This is where the hot clips of the upcoming movies are shown. The cuts of the movies are always of the most exciting scenes: the fight scenes, the love scenes, or the chase scenes. The moviemakers show you the best clips because they want you to tune in to the whole show.

Now, the movie itself may actually be terrible, but you’ll never know it by the clips! One day there is a big show coming to town.

God is the Producer, the Holy Spirit is the Director, and Jesus is the Superstar. It will be a worldwide production. In the meantime, God has left you and me here as previews of the coming attractions. As disciples of Christ, we’re supposed to be the hot clips of the upcoming show, so that when people see our clips, they conclude the show must be hot.

From watching our previews, people should raise the question, “Where can I buy a ticket to the show?” It is then that we can tell them, “You don’t have to buy a ticket; the price has already been paid.”
