Why is Christ central to all of Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is the central figure of Scripture; all historical and prophetic elements point to Him.

Christ is central to Scripture because all of its narratives—historical events, prophecies, and types—culminate in Him. As outlined in the sermon, from Adam to the prophets, every biblical figure and story demonstrates aspects of Christ's character and redemptive work. For instance, Adam represents Christ as our head, Noah symbolizes salvation, and Moses reflects Christ as the lawgiver. In Luke 24:27, Jesus Himself explains to His followers how the entire Old Testament testifies of His coming. Hence, Scripture's ultimate purpose is to reveal Christ and His work of redemption to humanity.
