How do we know Christ is central to God's plan?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture consistently shows that Christ is at the center of God's plan for redemption and creation, as He is the focal point of all prophecy and divine purpose.

From the very beginning, Scripture reveals that Christ is central to God's plan of creation and redemption. Proverbs 8:22-31 states that Christ was present with God before the creation of the world as our covenant surety. Furthermore, the apostles acknowledged in Acts 10:43 that all the prophets gave witness to Him, affirming that the entire Old Testament foreshadows Jesus and His redeeming work. This narrative continues throughout the Scriptures, demonstrating that everything was designed to lead to Christ. The figure of Christ fulfills God’s promises and purposes, as evidenced by 1 Corinthians 1:30, which declares that all wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption are found in Him. Thus, through these texts, we confidently affirm that Christ is unequivocally central to God's sovereign plan for humanity.
