: Matthew 1 and Bible Fulfilment: Christ and God’s Plan of Redemption
The New Testament begins not as a new religion, but as the fulfilment of God's ancient promises. In this Technical Thursday Bible Overview with Rocky Stevenson Pastor of Benoni Bible Church, we explore how Matthew opens with Jesus Christ as the Son of David and the Son of Abraham, showing that everything promised in the Old Testament finds its fulfilment in Him.
From the promises to Abraham and David, to the sacrifices, priesthood, temple, and covenants, Scripture presents one unified story of redemption cantered on Christ. Jesus came not to abolish the Law and the Prophets, but to fulfil them (Matthew | 5:17). He is the true Passover Lamb (John | 1:29), the greater temple (John | 2:19-21), and the Savior who came to save His people from their sins (Matthew | 1:21).
We also consider why the apostles constantly preached from the Old Testament, and why understanding Genesis through Malachi is essential for understanding the Gospels and the New Covenant. Key passages include Matthew | 1, Matthew | 5:17, Luke | 24:44-45, John | 1:29, John | 5:39, Hebrews | 10:4, and Galatians | 4:4.
This Bible overview highlights biblical theology, covenant fulfilment, messianic prophecy, and the unity of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation.
Take some time to reflect on how all of God's promises find their "Yes" in Jesus Christ, and join us as we continue our journey through the New Testament.
