The life of New Testament believers today is firmly grounded in the promises and prophecies of the Old Testament, which foreshadow the conduct, faith, benefits, and blessings now experienced through Christ.

While not every word in the Old Testament is explicitly about Christ, we are called to diligently uncover insights about Him as part of the larger tapestry of events, people, and messages found there. The prophecies concerning believers in Christ are often interwoven with the stories, laws, poetry, and messages initially directed toward Israel.

Abraham anticipated a city with lasting foundations, built by God Himself. David envisioned Zion, the city of the Living God. The writer of Hebrews confirms that believers today have arrived at this city, identifying us as the beautiful people of that beloved country they longed for.

This study aims to lead you, as a believer, into the blessings and benefits that are yours through the finished work of Christ, promised from the foundation of the world.
