Walking & Talking

How Do the Old and New Testament Fit Together?


Listen Later

We challenge the idea that the Old Testament and New Testament reveal different gods or different ways of salvation, and we lay out a clear path for reading the Bible as one unified story. We offer four tools for putting Scripture together so you can read any passage with Christ in view and avoid both legalism and lawlessness. 


• Marcion’s split between Old Testament and New Testament and why it fails 
• Common misconceptions about salvation, ethics, and “Jewish-only” readings 
• One ultimate Author in the Holy Spirit and one unified storyline 
• Covenants as the Bible’s major framework and turning points 
• Law and gospel distinction and the “grammar of the gospel” 
• Why Christ is the interpretive key to all Scripture 
• The Three Ts for connecting to Jesus: text, type, theme
