Jesus in the Old Testament: Types & Foreshadows


There are people, places and events in the Old Testament that look forward to the New Testament Messiah. This week, we’ll look at some of these types or foreshadows of Christ. Let’s start at the beginning … with Adam.


1 Corinthians 15:45-46 (NLT)

The Scriptures tell us, “The first man, Adam, became a living person.” But the last Adam—that is, Christ—is a life-giving Spirit. What comes first is the natural body, then the spiritual body comes later.

The story of the first man sets the stage to understand the advent, death and resurrection of Jesus. We see God’s plan set in motion.

 

 

Good morning, Lord. Have mercy on me, for I have sinned! I know it, You know it — no need to make excuses. Thank You, Jesus, for mercy and grace to forgive my sins and restore my soul.
