Seeing Christ in All Scripture: Jesus the Prophet, Preist, and King

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.Seeing Christ in All Scripture: Jesus the Prophet, Priest, and KingHow does the Bible all fit together?Scripture contains history, poetry, prophecy, law, sacrifices, priests, kings, and countless individual stories. At times, it can feel like we are reading disconnected pieces rather than one unified story. But from Genesis to Revelation, Scripture tells one story—the story of God’s plan to redeem His people through Jesus Christ.In this episode of Seeing Christ in All Scripture, we explore one of the clearest ways the Bible reveals this unified story: the threefold office of Christ as Prophet, Priest, and King.Throughout the Old Testament, prophets spoke God’s Word, priests mediated between God and His people, and kings ruled over God’s covenant people. Yet every prophet, priest, and king ultimately fell short, creating an expectation for Someone greater.That Someone is Jesus Christ.Jesus is the final Prophet, who perfectly reveals God. He is the perfect Priest, who offers Himself as the once-for-all sacrifice for sin. And He is the eternal King, the promised Son of David whose kingdom will never fail.When we understand Christ’s threefold office, we begin to read the Old Testament differently. Moses, David, Solomon, the prophets, the priesthood, the sacrifices, and the kingdom are not isolated stories. They are part of a larger story pointing us to Christ.As Jesus taught after His resurrection, “in all the Scriptures” the things concerning Himself were revealed (Luke 24:27).We need Christ.He is the Prophet we must hear, the Priest we can trust, and the King we must follow.
