Each Gospel illustrates this one major theme, the dominant idea of fulfillment. And what we’re saying is that the Christ of the New Testament is the fulfillment of the Old Testament. He is the subject of its pages in a unique way. Remember that Job in the Old Testament made a great discovery of God on one occasion and he wrote “I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee” (Job 42:5, KJV). As one examines Jesus Christ in the Gospels one will be able to say, “We have heard about Jesus, a great deal by the hearing of the ears but now our eyes actually behold him in the pages of these Gospel accounts.” In fact, Jesus himself emphatically declares that all scripture speaks of him declaring, "These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me" (Lk 24:44, KJV); and "Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me" (Jn 5:39).
