Lecture Series: The Doctrine of Christ
Lecture 1: "Anticipations of Christ in the OT"

The Person of Christ is basic to the work of Christ, because the worth of salvation depends upon the worth of the Savior. If our Lord is not what He claimed to be, then His death on the cross does not save us. In this series of studies we will focus our attention upon the testimony of the Word of God concerning the Person of Christ. We begin with the Old Testament anticipations of Christ in prophecy and typology.
