Jesus told the disciples on the road to Emmaus that all the scriptures spoke of him Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag

If we don’t see Christ in the scriptures, we have missed the primary purpose of the scriptures. [2]

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.
