“There is an old jingle which is certainly simple and verges on the simplistic, but our forebears where fundamentally right when they taught that: the Old Testament is Jesus predicted; the Gospels are Jesus revealed; Acts is Jesus preached; the Epistles, Jesus explained; and the Revelation, Jesus expected. He is the climax as well as the substance and centre of the whole. In him all God’s promises are yea and amen (2 Cor. 1:20).”
