Introduction:
The Gospel was first revealed in the Old Testament. Not in
all of the detail that we see in the New Testament, of course, but it is there.
The very first pulling back of the curtain of revelation is in Genesis 3, right
after Adam and Eve had sinned and been confronted by God. God proclaimed that
the seed of the woman would crush the head of the serpent. We find another
pulling back of the curtain of revelation in the life of Noah, that God would
preserve a people from wrath. There are others, of course, but I think my
favorite is how the Gospel was revealed to Abraham.
