Why study passages from the Old Testament when the life of Jesus is covered in the New Testament” Good question. Because what we call the “Old” was the only Bible Jesus ever used. In fact, the New Testament hadn’t even been written when Jesus was on earth, because it is the testimony of His life – ant the lives of His chosen followers.

Because bound up in God’s proven faithfulness to Israel are prophesies and promises about a coming Messiah that would extend the status of “Chosen” to all who respond to His call. That’s us. WE’RE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE OF GOD! The television series title, The Chosen, refers to multiple things, including God’s chosen nation of Israel and all those whom Jesus choses. But what does it actually mean to be chosen? To answer that question, we’re going Old school – Testament, that is. Which will lead us back to the New – Testament, that is … Which will lead us directly to Jesus!
