Comments on: Did Old Testament Saints “Look Forward” to the Cross? http://www.believingstudy.com/2009/03/31/did-old-testament-saints-look-forward-to-the-cross/ Seek ye out the book of the Lord, and read. -Isa 34:16 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 15:25:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: theSpicket http://www.believingstudy.com/2009/03/31/did-old-testament-saints-look-forward-to-the-cross/comment-page-1/#comment-86 theSpicket Sat, 15 May 2010 03:30:30 +0000 http://www.believingstudy.com/?p=11#comment-86 Not to be contentious, now, but in I Corinthinans 1:17-22, the Apostle makes it more than clear that the gospel and the cross are indistinguishable. For certain, the cross without the resurrection makes us the most miserable of men, but the resurrection without the cross would mean only one Son for the Father - a Firstfruits without the harvest! Remember, it is the "Lamb as it had been slain" who is "worthy to take book, and to open the seals thereof," (Rev. 5:6,8) thus redeeming mankind.

The statement you gave is exactly what my church teaches. They have no idea about how God dealt differently with man in different dispensations. True Bible believing churches are few and far between in our part of the country.So I have to get most of my Bible teaching from Dr.Ruckman or the internet.May God richly bless you.

From Adam until Christ came into the world, so they looked forward until he came all of the sacrifices mentioned were symbolic of the death he would die, without shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. Isaiah 53, 1cointhians 15:1-5 : 1 Corinthians 1:17 There has to be a death before a resurrection- Not one dead animal came to life that was sacrificed, it was what they were a symbol and type of that which was to come Acts 3:12-26 The full gospel ,The incarnate Son of God lived ,died ,and resurrected and is cming again Read the book of Hebrews and it will explain it very good.

My husband grew up in OK city. We've visited OK city many times, to see his mother. I've been to the malls there, eaten at "Jimmy's Egg" a couple of times, been thru the Cowboy Hall of Fame, etc. (I used to call Oklahoma okra homey) Just read your bio, too. Must be nice to be a programmer, knowing so much about computers. Well, back to AV1611. And, no, I'm not "kissing up" so to speak. You happen to have a good believing study blog, and I like to comment and get to know other true Christians. You’re a resident of Oklahoma! My husband grew up in OK city.

Even Romans Ch. 10, which I like to call the salvation verses, doesn't mention the cross. ...and believe in thine heart God raised Him from the dead.... The resurrection is what we are told to believe. He's alive! And He's coming back! Praise Jesus! Praise God! Amen.
