Genesis 1-5

In The Whole Christian Doctrine in Genesis 1-5, Pastor Zorn presents the Scriptural basis for this reality. After all, Moses was (and is) a Christian. For he regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward (Hebrews 11:26).

In the preface Zorn wrote:

“Luther and all truly orthodox theologians recognize and testify that the Old Testament reveals Christ, that the whole Christian doctrine is taught in it, even though the glorious light of the New Testament was not yet shining. They agree perfectly with the great Apostle Paul who testified before Agrippa and the Roman governor, Festus: I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come: that Christ should suffer, and that He should be the first that would rise from the dead, and should show light unto the people, and to the Gentiles” (Acts 26:23).
