A FRESH; EXHILARATING JOURNEY THROUGH THE BOOK OF BOOKS! “Beginning at Moses and all the Prophets; He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself” (Luke 24:27). It is a common misconception that Jesus only appears in the New Testament. Yet Pastor Doug Batchelor; president of Amazing Facts; reveals that Jesus actually appears many times in the Old Testament— sometimes in person; yes; but most often in types and shadows as seen in the amazing stories and lives of Old Testament characters. Some of these types of Christ; these shadows of light; are obvious; such as when Abraham placed the wood on the back of his beloved son Isaac; who then carried it up the hill to the place of his own willing sacrifice. Or when the prophet Elisha; like Jesus; performed a miracle multiplying bread to feed his disciples; even providing leftovers. But sometimes; finding the shadows of Jesus in the Word of God requires a more careful examination. Jesus said that the Scriptures “testify of Me” (John 5:39). With a little help; you can also discover the golden thread of a Savior woven through the entire Bible tapestry. Shadows of Light is one of the most enriching spiritual journeys you’ll ever experience; a Bible study that will increase your confidence in the Book of Books and grow your faith with every chapter.
