Summary

In this series we will seek to understand how the New Testament finds Jesus in the Old Testament in order to learn principles that will guide us in our own reading of the Old Testament so that we can discover Jesus there as well. This message is about laying a foundation for seeing Jesus in the Old Testament by surveying what Jesus said about Jesus in the Old Testament and seeing how the book of Acts models preaching Jesus from the Old Testament. In fact, all of the New Testament seems to be built on the idea that Jesus IS in the Old Testament. This is the first video in a series on how to find Jesus in the Old Testament.

0:00.0	I'm Pastor Mike Winger and this is Bible Thinker the program dedicated to thinking
0:05.8	biblically about everything.
0:10.1	Let me explain to you what we're doing.
0:11.3	We're about to start a new series, something I'm very excited about doing,
0:15.3	even though I'm not entirely sure how it's going to play out as we kind of unpack it and go through it.

0:45.8	unclear pictures of Jesus, analogies of Jesus, appearances, theophanes, that sort of thing,
0:51.9	all of the above, you know, teaching that's related to him in some way, that this is throughout the Old Testament.
0:57.0	And I think this is a very exciting thing to study.
1:01.0	I think there's something about it that just ministers to our spirit, like when you're getting to study. I think there's something about it that just ministers to our
1:02.9	spirit like when you're getting to Jesus in the Old Testament. It's very exciting about
1:06.8	it. It's also I think neglected. I think that we tend to not do this very much and
1:12.4	when you think about it you're like yeah you know I
1:14.1	I'll study a whole book of the Old Testament not necessarily be thinking that much
1:18.1	about this issue or maybe not be equipped with the ability to think very well about the issue.
1:23.4	Like, I don't know how am I supposed to do this?
1:25.1	How do I know I'm not just making stuff up?
