The Scriptures Testify of Me
Course Description: In John 5: 39, Yeshua (Jesus) tells the Jewish leaders that the Scriptures they search, study, and learn from testify of Him. This applies to the entirety of Scripture. In this course, we will study the types and shadows in the Torah that pre-figure Messiah. These are found in mediators between God and man, the Law given through Moses concerning blood atonement, the Feasts known as the Appointed Times, and many of the experiences of the People in the Wilderness. When these are seen as pre-figuring Yeshua (Jesus), we obtain a much deeper understanding of the Plan of Redemption and the power and awe of grace.
