The Visible Presence: Appearances of Christ in the Old Testament

Where Was Jesus in the Old Testament?

Have you ever wondered why Jesus waited thousands of years of human history before making an appearance in the little town of Bethlehem?

Why does it seem that the most important person to ever have walked the planet Earth only lived about 30 years and the Bible only describes with any detail only 3 of those years? The truth is, as the Apostle John reminds us, Jesus, "was in the beginning with God."  And, since He's always been, there is all the more reason to trust Him.

• Discover how Jesus has always been the means by which God reveals Himself to His people.
  
• Learn how many of God's people in the Old Testament had personal encounters with Christ.
• Behold the wonder of a God who makes His presence known to His people, His visible presence, Jesus Christ.
