In this powerful conclusion to our series on Finding Jesus in the Pages of the Old Testament, Pastor Kevin walks us through the astonishing connections between Old Testament prophecies, types, and shadows—and their fulfillment in Jesus Christ. From the tabernacle and temple to the life of Joseph, we see vivid parallels that reveal Christ in remarkable detail. Pastor Kevin also highlights dozens of prophecies—some given hundreds of years before Jesus’ birth—that were fulfilled exactly in His life, death, and resurrection, strengthening our confidence that He truly is the Messiah, the Son of the Living God.
✨ Three Main Takeaways:
Christ is everywhere in the Old Testament – From the structure of the tabernacle to the story of Joseph, the Scriptures consistently point to Jesus as God’s redemptive plan revealed in advance.
Prophecy confirms Jesus’ identity – Between 300–400 Old Testament prophecies were fulfilled in Jesus’ lifetime, with exact details like His birthplace, betrayal price, and method of death—leaving no doubt that He is the promised Messiah.
Knowing the Old Testament protects against deception – Understanding prophecy and the patterns of Scripture equips us to recognize God’s truth and avoid being misled, just as the disciples’ eyes were opened when Jesus explained the Scriptures to them.
