    The Old Testament teaches us about the undeniable forgiveness and love of God. It shows us how time and time again we tempted GOD, & how HE continually gave us the opportunity to start a new. Still we/ the people disobeyed. It prepares us for the precious Gift of life & forgiveness through Jesus and the shedding of HIS blood as the ultimate sacrifice and new covenant. Thus, in order for us to understand the coming and the fulling of scripture by Jesus the Messiah, we must know and understand the Old Testament.

    It is important to know even when we are rebellious and not looking for God, He is reaching out and loves us. It is significant because our God is love, unlike any other gods, He is reaching out to us and wants to reconcile us to relationship with Him.

    Because we need to know how much God loves us and how far he will go to reconcile us to him.

    Because we are all rebellious people. When we see ourselves in the people of the Old Testament we can be assured that we are not beyond His reach or His love.

    God is forgiving and loves us yet, hates the sin that cripples us to which our choice determines whom we choose. Do we choose sin or God ? God loves His creation to which he gave his only begotten Son to save the sinners, no. To save His children, to save His creation.

      God created the world, but since sin came into the world , we have to have Jesus Christ to fix it for us t9 havecth3 world tobe reunited again. But we need Jesus in our lives in our head in our soul and in our hearts for ever. He has to be in our lives and in our dreams forever.
