Christ in Genesis Lesson 1: Christology and the Emmaus Road Sermon

This is the introductory lesson for an in-depth study of Old Testament Christology (finding Christ in the Old Testament). The "springboard" for this study comes from the Lord's unrecorded teaching in "The Emmaus Road Sermon". To two disheartened disciples, returning from Jerusalem to their former, pre-Jesus lives, the "incognito" resurrected Lord cheered them up to the point of "spiritual heartburn" (Luke 24:32) by teaching why "the Christ" HAD to suffer (and die) before entering into His glory. ". . . Beginning at Moses and all the prophets, He expounded unto them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself" (24:26, 27). This is a superb one-hour "lesson" emphasizing the truth that Scripture is a divinely-inspired cohesive whole, with Christ and His redemptive work on the cross its central theme. The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed; the New Testament is the Old revealed. Amen. Learn about TYPOLOGY in this and the lessons to follow in this spiritual heartburn study, "CHRIST in GENESIS".
