Bible Question: Why should I study the old testement? |
Bible Answer: Hello bluestar, Every time the New Testament says about things that are "written", It is refering to the Old Testament, these were the only writings they had at that time. The New Testament was not assembled until a later time in history, well after Jesus' days on the earth. Since our God doesn't change, Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. And the things written were about Him. Luke 24:44 Now He said to them, "These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled." We do well to study The Old Testament for understanding. Some don't, and as a result twist the scriptures to have other meaning,as Peter spoke of Paul's writings in 2 Pet 3:16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. Acts 24:14 "But this I admit to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets; Luke 24:27 Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures. I was looking for a scripture in the New Testament that said something like - except they look to the law and the prophets there is no light in them- I may be wrong , I can't find it right now ? maybe someone else knows what I am refering to. Also when you see small capital letters in the New Testament, It is quoting from the OT, A reference Bible will direct you to that OT scripture, so you can go back and read and have a greater understanding of what is being said in the NT. I pray that this helps you, wordoer |
