The riddle of Samson <ref>[[Jud 14:18]] And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down, What [is] sweeter than honey? and what [is] stronger than a lion? And he said unto them, If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.</ref> tells us Christ is the answer to all the prophetic riddles. If the shadow (prophetic riddle) doesn’t look like Christ, it isn’t a good shadow. (This keeps us focused)

Jesus told the disciples on the road to Emmaus that all the scriptures spoke of him <ref>[[,

He chastised the scribes and Pharisees for searching the scriptures to seek life, but rejecting him, since they spoke of him. <ref>[[Joh 5:39]] Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.</ref>

If we don’t see Christ in the scriptures, we have missed the primary purpose of the scriptures. <ref>[[Joh 15:26]] But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:</ref>

If Christ is not central to a proposed interpretation, it is to be rejected. This rule alone separates the revealed word of God from Gnosticism, Kabbalah and Midrash.

'''Consequence of lack of Christocentric meaning:''' You miss the point of the scriptures in revealing God through Christ.
