Jesus Fulfills The Old Testament

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 23, 2008

There are not two covenants, or two fulfillments; Jesus fulfills the covenants with Abraham, Moses and David

The New Testament is the completion of the old. The New Covenant in the blood of Christ, which we re-present at this hour, is the fulfillment of the Old.
