421st Post Jesus on His Ascension and Glorification Prophesises - New Section My Introduction

Jesus is going to tell the disciples and His other believer's what His death, Resurrection and Ascension will mean to the world. Before the Holy Spirit was taking an active role on earth, the disciples did not fully understand what they had been taught, what they saw as far as miracles; and what this will mean to them in living their lives. The religious leaders did not accept Jesus as the Son of God as He, Himself declared. This truth, made it hard for believer's to hear the truth in the Scriptures, and come to the knowledge of Christ. Only people truly seeking God's Truth, would find it. Holy Scriptures, at the time of Christ, were not as readily available as they are today. Jesus, Himself had to be the bridge of knowledge between the Old and New Testament. This is why knowledge of the Old Testament is necessary, to understand the New Testament. Too many Christians, only look at the New Testament, and have a narrow view of Jesus Christ because of it. I tried to show that in order to understand why Jesus had to die, and rise from the dead; you would have to understand the Old Testament, and what it teaches. Many believe the Bible contains two completely different books in the same binding. The Old Testament is not just for the Jews, and the New Testament is not just for the Christians. To have a complete faith, you need both parts of the Bible. This is why it is called God's Word. How is your knowledge of God?? Only you can change your answer if you did not like your first answer.
