The Old Testament and Jesus

Date recorded: 20 May 2017 | Speaker: Peter J. Williams | Event: ELF Pre-Forum Seminar
Topic: Theology
The Old Testament and Jesus

Description

One of the most powerful arguments for Christianity and for the inspiration of the Scriptures is the argument from prophecy. This sees Jesus not merely as 'predicted' by specific sayings in the Old Testament, but more importantly as foreshadowed by the entire structure of the Old Testament narrative. The Old Testament makes the most sense when viewed in the light of Christ and thus points to its own divine origin.
