A Random Thought

Many people have a problem with the way Christians see everything in
the Old Testament as pointing to Christ. Why is that?
The New Testament is full of exhortations to persevere in the face of
suffering because we are partaking in Christ's suffering. Why should
we not assume that people in the Old Testament would not have a
similar honor?
The only difference is that they are on the other side of the
incarnation, which makes their lives a prophecy.
