What does the Bible say about Christ being the purpose of Scripture?

According to Colossians 3:11, Christ is described as 'all and in all', indicating that He is the very purpose of the Scriptures. Throughout biblical history, every book and narrative testifies of Him, and failing to see Christ in the Scriptures means missing their true meaning and purpose. Our Lord Himself affirmed in John 5:39, 'These are they which testify of me'. This understanding emphasizes that recognizing Christ is essential for grasping the gospel and the overall narrative of the Bible.
