—Malachi 3:1-5

This passage, in the last book of the Old Testament, points us right to the New Testament. A messenger will prepare the way and then the Lord will come. Interesting, that is just what happened!
I found an illustration of Jesus holding the Old Testament in his left hand. Christ was very clearly in the middle and the New Testament was in his right hand. Christ pulls the scriptures together, making them whole. He is the promised Messiah of the Old Testament. He is the baby born of a virgin in the New Testament. He is the fulfillment of prophesy from days of old and our savior today!
