7.How was Moses "a testimony of the things that were to be spoken after"?

All of the things the Lord brought forth through Moses, including the Law, the priesthood and the offerings, the Levitical feasts, and the Tabernacle of the Congregation, bear witness of the Person and work of the crucified and risen Lord Christ. In addition, Moses prophesied of the coming of Christ:

I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brothers, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him (Deuteronomy 18:18).

Moses was part of the testimony of the Old Testament Scriptures. This testimony applies directly to us today. The things and events of the Old Testament are a physical portrayal, an example, a shadow, an illustration, a representation in the material world of what is true today. The events, the circumstances, and the utterances, of the Old Testament have occurred for our benefit who are living in the hour when all will come to fruition.

Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come (I Corinthians 10:11).

Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: searching what, or what manner of time the spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. Unto whom [the Hebrew Prophets] it was revealed, that not unto themselves [the physical Israelites], but unto us [the Christians—Jews and Gentiles] they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into (I Peter 1:10-12).

Have we meditated on the journey of Israel from Egypt to Canaan?

Have we studied the Tabernacle of the Congregation?

Have we considered the seven feasts of the Lord, found in the twenty-third chapter of Leviticus?

Even the days of creation are a type of the redemption that is in Christ in that we commence in chaos of personality and finish in the rest of God, having been created in the image of Christ.

The Book of Hebrews gives several examples of the manner in which we are to apply the Old Testament Scriptures to our lives as Christians.

We should not neglect our salvation. We should be continually and diligently reading and meditating in both the old Testament and the New Testament so that the Holy Spirit can guide us through our Christian pilgrimage.
