I was reading again this weekend the story of the Transfiguration of Jesus. Have you ever noticed that when God the Father said "This is My Beloved Son, Listen to Him," He was speaking in the presence of Moses (representing the Law), Elijah (representing the Prophets) and the disciples (representing the New Testament)? All of Scripture (represented by these three groups) listens to Jesus, and all of Scripture speaks of Jesus, because all of Scripture is about Jesus.
And he said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?” And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself. (Luke 24:25-27)
You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life. (John 5:39-40)
It's all about Jesus.
Shouldn't we talk about Him more?
