Understandest Thou What Thou Readest Volume 3 Chris Segun Onayinka

This is a continuation in our Bible interpretation series. However, it's to provide a textual exegetical tool in the "THIS IS OUR GOD" series . It will outlay the relationship the Old Testament texts have with the New Testament. A book on Bible Interpretation (Volume 3). "Luke 24:25-27, we see that the fulcrum of Jesus' teaching in that context and scenario was to revisit the Old Testament- what we refer to in our books as reading backwards. Go back and read it again and maybe if we look at the incidence of his encounter that he had with his disciples in the room, where he not just explained the Old Testament but showed them a connection between everything he said, taught and did in the 4 gospels with the Old Testament altogether. And therefore we submit in our book here that the Old Testament and the New Testament are not at cross purposes, neither are they contrasts. Of course, I carefully use the term 'Old Testament/ New Testament' looking at the modern day mode of compilation of the books, but in essence we have just one singular covenant and testament running from Genesis through to the book of Revelation.
