Publisher's summary

Christ is the central figure of Christianity. It follows that He is also the central figure of Christian Scripture. As such, all Scripture testifies of Him. This point is almost unanimously accepted among Evangelicals. The disagreements begin to appear when we discuss how Scripture testifies of Christ. This is particularly true concerning the Old Testament. In his book, Preaching Christ from the Old Testament, Pastor Brad Creech examines three popular approaches. They are the “First Testament Priority Approach”, the “Redemptive-Historical, Christocentric Approach”, and the “Christotelic Approach.” For each approach he provides a summary, an evaluation, and an example of how it will impact the preaching of a particular text. In the conclusion, Pastor Creech explains his own position on the topic. This book will sharpen your thinking on Christ in the Old Testament.
