Dr. Chris Wright, Principal of All Nations Bible College, gave the first of this year's two Keswick lectures entitled 'The Old Testament - Antiques Roadshow or Tomorrow's World?'. Into which of these two categories does the Old Testament fit? Both of them, according to Chris Wright.
'The Antiques Roadshow' looks at old furniture and decides whether or not it is old junk. 'Tomorrow's World' looks ahead to the future and asks: 'What will happen?'. The Old Testament has both the value of an antique and also points us to the present and the future.
Many Christians do not even read it. Yet the Old Testament is essential if we are to understand Jesus.
