Old Testament Introduction

Too frequently believers give up on the possibility of understanding the Old Testament. Distance from the culture ignorance of the literary forms and failure to see the structure of each book combine to create a daunting task in sorting out the content. Without the ability to compass the content application becomes difficult. Further too many people labor under the mistaken notion that the Old Testament is no longer relevant. In reality it is impossible to truly understand and apply the New Testament correctly without a working knowledge of the Old Testament. Every believer can be an active student of the Old Testament.
