God the Father loves His Son and desires for us to know, appreciate, and love Him too. The New Testament discloses God's ultimate revelation to mankind in a person: God's incarnate Son, Jesus Christ, is God's message and Messenger to humanity. Christ's life, His sacrifice, His death, His resurrection, and His ascension all speak to us of God's mighty, selfless Conqueror, now exalted to His throne. Christ freely offers light, love, and life to all who will receive Him and then promises to lead them ever heavenward. By the illuminating assistance of the Holy Spirit, we are able to understand that all of Scripture speaks of Christ to some degree. The New Testament superbly declares to us the meanings of numerous Old Testament types, symbols, and allegories of Christ. Hence, the best reason to embark on this one-year journey is to more clearly see, know, and love Christ. We will not value Him at all until we esteem Him above all! May the Lord richly bless your daily contemplations of the Savior as you eagerly peer into God's oracles and witness the glory of His Son. -- Warren Henderson
