  8. Jesus OT inspiration OT prophecy OT history

  9. Jesus and OT Inspiration But regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God: Matt 22:31 (Ex. 3:6)

  10. The Law of Moses Gen.-Deut. The Prophets Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, 12 minor The Psalms Psalms, Proverbs Job, S of S, Ruth, Lam., Ecc., Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, 1-2 Chronicles Luke 24:44 Spoken to you by GodMatt. 22:31-32, refers to Exodus 3:6 The scripture says Jo. 7:42, is the same as God says Micah 5:2; 1:1 How does David in the Spirit call him Lord? Matt. 22:43 The Scriptures Matt. 21:42

  11. The Law of Moses Gen.-Deut. The Prophets Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, 12 minor The Psalms Psalms, Proverbs Job, S of S, Ruth, Lam., Ecc., Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, 1-2 Chronicles Luke 24:44 • Jesus quoted from each of the three sections of the O.T. scriptures. • Each time He attributed the ultimate source as being God, i.e., it was God speaking through men, or inspiration. • Jesus considered the O.T. to be inspired, revealed by God. The Scriptures Matt. 21:42

  12. Jesus and OT Prophecy For all the prophets and the Law prophesied until John. Matt. 11:13

  13. ProphetFulfillmentDate B.C. David Psalms 41:9 Jo. 13:181,000 Isaiah 61:1 Lk. 4:16-21750 6:9-10 Matt. 13:14-15 Daniel 9:27; 11:31; 12:11 Matt. 24:15605-530 Zechariah 13:7 Matt. 26:31520 Malachi 3:1 Matt. 11:10445-432

  14. Jesus and OT History Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea creature Matt. 12:39 The preaching of Jonah Lk. 11:32

  15. OT Events Creation Gen. 1-2 Ark and flood Gen. 6-8 Sodom/Gomorrah Gen. 19 Lot's wife Gen. 19 Manna Ex. 16 Brazen serpent Num. 21 Jonah and fish Jonah 1-2 Jesus’ reference Mk. 13:19 Matt. 24:37-39 Lk. 17:29 Lk. 17:32 Jo. 6:31-32 Jo. 3:14 Matt. 12:39-41

  16. The Law of Moses Gen.-Deut. The Prophets Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, 12 minor The Psalms Psalms, Proverbs Job, S of S, Ruth, Lam., Ecc., Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, 1-2 Chronicles Luke 24:44 How do you explain Jesus’ statements regarding OT inspiration OT history OT prophecy? 1-Did He know these were not so? Then he was LIAR 2-Did He think they were true? Then he was a FOOL 3-Was He sane and telling the truth? The Scriptures Matt. 21:42

  17. To believe in the sanity and veracity of Jesus is to believe God is the Divine author of the Old Testament

  18. Can the same be said of the New Testament? Once again we look primarily to Jesus for evidence.

  19. Evidence Jesus promised Divine inspiration in preaching and teaching New Testament writers claimed they were inspired New Testament authors placed their writings on same level as Old Testament writers

  20. The promises of Jesus It is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you Matt. 10:19-20; Mk. 13:11 He who hears you hears me Lk. 10:16 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. Jo. 14:26

  21. The promises of Jesus 26 When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me, 27 and you will testify also, because you have been with Me from the beginning. Jo. 15:26-27 The Holy Spirit…will guide you into all the truth Jo. 16:13

  22. The claims of NT writers: We are inspired If anyone thinks he is a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize that the things which I write to you are the Lord's commandment. 1 Cor. 14:37 For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ. Gal. 1:11-12

  23. The claims of NT writers: We are inspired that by revelation there was made known to me the mystery, as I wrote before in brief. By referring to this, when you read you can understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit; Eph. 3:3-5

  24. The claims of NT writers: Our writings same as OT as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. 2 Peter 3:16 “his letters” are a reference to the epistles of Paul “the rest of the scriptures” are the O.T. scriptures In this passage, Peter places all of Paul’s letters into the same category as the O.T. scriptures: They were revealed by God

  25. The claims of NT writers: Our writings same as OT as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. 2 Peter 3:16 This passage also establishes the early existence of a “canon” of NT scripture (the epistles of Paul), long before various church councils.

  26. The claims of NT writers: Our writings same as OT The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. For the Scripture says, "YOU SHALL NOT MUZZLE THE OX WHILE HE IS THRESHING," and “The laborer is worthy of his wages.“ 1 Timothy 5:17-18 “The Scripture says” is followed immediately by a quotation from Deuteronomy 25:4 “and” means that what follows is also “scripture” and the quotation is from Luke 10:7

  27. The claims of NT writers: Our writings same as OT The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. For the Scripture says, "YOU SHALL NOT MUZZLE THE OX WHILE HE IS THRESHING," and “The laborer is worthy of his wages.“ 1 Timothy 5:17-18 Paul claims that at least one gospel was inspired (and probably Acts) as Luke wrote both. He, along with Peter (2 Peter 3:16), indicates an early NT canon: Paul’s epistles, Luke and probably Acts

  28. Jesus’ promise of Divine inspiration of NT writers was fulfilled Evidence of New Testament writers claims of being Divinely inspired & their documents being on a level with OT scripture should be taken seriously.

  29. The Bible lives up to its claims It is the Divinely inspired word of God
