## Description

The Old Testament is a lot—but it is incredibly important for understanding our faith.

The New Testament didn't appear out of nowhere. The Old Testament lays the foundation for understanding God's character, His covenant promises, sin, sacrifice, redemption, prophecy, and ultimately the coming of Christ.

Jesus and the apostles constantly appealed to the Old Testament. The Gospel itself is rooted in the promises and prophecies that came before Christ.

You can certainly spend a lot of time studying the New Testament, but don't neglect the Old Testament. The more you understand the foundation, the more you'll see how the pieces of Scripture fit together and point toward Christ.

The Old Testament helps us understand the New Testament—and the New Testament helps us see the fulfillment of the Old Testament in Christ.
