"He promised (the gospel) before through His Prophets in the Holy Scriptures." Romans 1:2
Did you know that the Old Testament is completely consistent with the New? That's because the good news is old, not new. The Old Testament, from Genesis to Malachi, or anywhere in between, is all about the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Jesus said that the Scriptures give testimony about Him (John 6:39). In speaking to men on the road to Emmaus, Jesus said, " 'Oh foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into His glory?' And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself" (Luke 24:25-27).
Why is that important for you today? So you can be confident that the Scripture holds God's promise of good news in Christ.
