To know more about God. To know and fully appreciate why Jesus had to go to the cross for us.

The Old Testament is our history, it gives glimpses into Christ’s coming. I think the OT is interesting ?

Without the Old Testament there would be no New Testament. By studying the Old Testament you see who God is, you also see the reasoning for the birth of Jesus. The Old Testament also teaches you about creation and its purpose. Another big thing you learn in the Old Testament is the fall of humanity and why our world we live in is broken.

some of the reasons one should study the old testament are:
a. to know who God is as deity and ruler of our lives
b. to understand why God created mankind
c. to learn our purpose for being created
d. to learn about the journey of the old prophets and all individuals as it relates to us in this present time.
e. to gain increase knowledge, wisdom and understanding of God’s word -
Of the many reasons one should study the Old Testament, some include; discovering who God is according to how He has chosen to reveal Himself through His history with His creation, getting to know God’s character based on how He related to His chosen people, and through the former two, learning how God relates to us today as His chosen people in the midst of a dark world as we strive to overcome our fallen natures. And of course, perhaps the biggest need for studying the Old Testament is to get to know who the Messiah is and why we need Him.
