What are some reasons one should study the Old Testament?
-
This question makes me think of the Bible Discovery Method. What does this say about man and what does this say about humans. In the Old Testament, we can truly differentiate those two things because you see a record before the Holy Spirit is given to God’s people. We see humans living apart from God, even though they worship God. So we study the Old to see God’s character. I love how we see all of God’s promises come to fruition, it makes me think how he is a God worth hoping in because he has an unblemished track record of fulfilling his Word.
