Jesus in the Old Testament: Creation (Randy)

The Old Testament is a story about Jesus.  The creation story is like a prologue to a great play, setting the stage and giving us insight into the nature and action of the main characters. In this case, the main character is Jesus. He was there from the beginning, speaking the world into being, showing us divine love, and planning to redeem us from our sins.

Jesus in the Old Testament: Introduction

The Old Testament and the New Testament can seem very different to us.  The Old Testament is focused on law, history, and justice.  The New Testament is focused on redemption, salvation, and love.  Yet they are two parts of the same Bible – the same revelation of God.  This series aims to connect the two parts of the Bible together by showing how Jesus Christ is present throughout Scripture.  In the introduction to the series, we explore the context of the Bible in three ways:  the continuity from the Old Testament to the New, understanding who Jesus is, and exploring the resurrection and the “Road to Emmaus.”
