The Scriptures - Part 1
May 12th, 2008 by paulvieira
Paul Vieira looks for Jesus in the pages of the Old Testament. This first lesson gives an introduction to the scriptures. (Download accompanying printed notes)
One of the first things that Jesus did after He had risen from the dead, was teach two of his disciples along the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35). “And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself”. (v.27)
Imagine that you had to teach someone about Jesus, but all you had was the ancient Hebrew Scriptures. This is what Jesus and the early church used. In this study we will uncover the depth of what Jesus said in Matt. 22:45, “Moses wrote of me.”

Hey, Paul, it’s nice to hear about you by this way. I like it, I want more! See you on Thursday. David
Amen, Paul. The OT is getting a bad rap much to often these days.
Two notable texts from the letters to Timothy also speak of the extensive usefulness of the OT, even leading to salvation in Christ.
2 Timothy 3:15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.
Godspeed!
