Episode notes
Read The Whole Old Testament
- Read the entire Old Testament because every word is inspired and profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness.
- Look for highlighted passages, New Testament quotations, genealogies, and Christ-fulfilled types to guide prioritized reading.
Scripture Highlights Guide Priority
- Not all Bible passages carry equal weight, and the text itself highlights important sections like the Ten Commandments and OT passages quoted in the NT.
- Prioritize texts the New Testament cites and passages that point to Christ for deeper theological benefit.
Christ Is In The Old Testament
- Christ is present in the Old Testament by picture, promise, and presence, testified by John 5, Luke 24, and Acts 10.
- Seeing Jesus in OT types and prophecies enlivens reading and removes the veil from those scriptures.
