Lesson: The Messiah Has Come
Bible Passage: Genesis 3:15, 22:17–18; Exodus 12:21–23; Deuteronomy 4:13; 2 Samuel 7:16; Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 1:1; Hebrews 1:1–3
Lesson Focus: The Old Testament taught that the Messiah was coming, and the New Testament proclaims that he has come. Without the Old Testament, we cannot understand and appreciate the fullness of God’s plan for redemption. God promised a Savior to Adam and Eve, and after 4,000 years, God revealed that Savior in the person of Jesus.
