Christ Old Testament

Writings of ancient prophets who acted under the influence of the Holy Spirit and who over many centuries testified of Christ and his future ministry. It also contains a record of the history of Abraham and his descendants, beginning with Abraham, and the covenant, or testament, the Lord made with Abraham and his posterity. The first five books of the Old Testament were written by Moses. They are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. Genesis refers to the origin of the Earth, mankind, languages, races, and the beginning of the house of Israel.

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 “...

The entire Bible is about Jesus. This is not always immediately obvious at a verse-by-verse level. Yet as we learn to look, we will find the deepest theological message of almost every passage in the Bible points to Christ. The old and new testaments form one unified story that leads us to our Savior. Their messages are like small streams that meet and combine to form themes that flow through the fascinating landscape of Scripture like mighty rivers. This book traces a few of these themes to see them fulfilled in Jesus, and to show how their current carries us toward even greater future ...

What if Jesus Himself walked you through forty years of wilderness? After the tabernacle was built. After the sacrificial system was taught. After everything Israel needed to know was delivered at the foot of Sinai. They knew everything. And almost none of it was enough. In Numbers with Jesus, Christ narrates the brutal, beautiful stretch of ground between knowing what to do and actually doing it. Through His voice — intimate, unflinching, and full of a grief that only God can carry — Jesus walks you through the book the church rushes past to get to the Promised Land. This is not a ...

We cannot know Jesus without knowing his story. Today the debate over who Jesus is rages on. Has the Bible bound Christians to a narrow and mistaken notion of Jesus? To answer these questions we need to know what story Jesus claimed for himself. Christopher Wright is convinced that Jesus's own story is rooted in the story of Israel. In this revised and updated book he traces the life of Christ as it is illuminated by the Old Testament. And he describes God's design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus.

“Before Abraham was, I am.” (John 8:58) The Apostle John made it clear. Jesus Christ was the Word of God who became flesh and dwelt among us. He was with God from the beginning, and He was (and is) God. The Apostle Paul wrote, “There is one mediator between God and man…Christ Jesus.” But what does that truly mean, and how does that apply to us, as followers of Christ, today? In this book, author Bob Palumbo provides plenty of biblical evidence that Jesus Christ, as God’s Word, was both present and active from before the world was formed. It pleased the Father that His Son would ...

What if Jesus Himself walked you through the most misunderstood book in the Bible? Before the manger. Before the miracles. Before the cross. There was a tabernacle in the wilderness — and a sacrificial system that Christ Himself designed, knowing He would one day fulfill every offering, every ritual, every drop of blood. In Leviticus with Jesus, the eternal Word opens the book that most readers skip and reveals it as the beating heart of the gospel. Through His voice — warm, authoritative, and deeply personal — Jesus explains why the Father required blood on the altar, what the priest...

There is an attempt to redefine who is Jesus, to redefine Christianity. For many, we perceive the Old Testament with boredom, fear, and contempt. We find it to be violent, cold, and unrelatable. Jonathan Roiz takes you on an easy to understand journey throughout the Old Testament to reveal how the Word of God is not two separate books, but one book, with one theme, Jesus Christ. Christ is the creator of all things, Jesus is the sustainer of all things and in Revelation Jesus is the restoration of all things.

In the early books of the Old Testament, the mysterious "Angel of the Lord" repeatedly appears—visibly, audibly, even physically—to the Patriarchs, to Moses, to the Prophets. Who is this Angel?

Even more, they argue that this Angel appears more often than people realize, because he appears under different titles, including: the Word, the Name, the Glory, the ...
