Salvation in the
Old Testament
The Doctrine of
Salvation
How are we Saved?
The FAITH “Key Question” . . .
“In your personal opinion, what do you
understand it takes for a person to go
to heaven?”
Possible Answers:
Faith
Works
Unclear
No opinion
The “Faith” Answer
“The only way we may be saved from the
penalty of our sin is to believe in the One
True God who made Himself known to us
by coming to us in the Person of Jesus
Christ, the God-Man, the one who died on
the cross for our sins and rose again from
the grave. We must repent and believe
that Jesus Christ is Lord and receive Him
as our own Personal Lord and Savior.
There is no other way we may be saved.”
Now, imagine your friend asks
you these questions . . .
But what about those who
lived before Jesus came?
■ What about those who lived before the
cross?
■ What about those who lived in the “BC”
part of the time-line?
■ They can’t receive Christ as Lord and
Savior because Jesus Christ has not yet
come, right?. . .
How would you respond?
The Seed
The foundation upon which redemption would
rest was God’s promise of a coming seed. In
addressing Satan in the immediate aftermath of
the fall, the Lord said . . .
Genesis 3:15. . .
“I will put enmity between you and the
woman, and between your seed and her
Seed; He shall bruise your head, and you
shall bruise His heel.”
The line of the promised seed was
announced in Genesis 12:2-3 . . .
“ . . . and in you (Abraham) all the
families of the earth shall be blessed.”
The identity of the line of the seed to be
blessed was particularized in Genesis
17:19:
“and you shall call his name Isaac; I
will establish My covenant with him for
an everlasting covenant, and with his
descendants after him.”
The Son
And so, through the seed of Abraham grew
the promise. The line of the promised
seed flourished until it produced its final
fruit in the Son.
Galatians 3:16 . . .
“Now to Abraham and his Seed were
the promises made. He does not say,
‘And to seeds,’ as of many, but as of
one, ‘And to your Seed,’ who is Christ.”
The Sinner
The window to salvation, from the
manward side, is opened in a phrase
associated with Abraham’s acceptance of
God’s promise of an heir—His promised
seed: “And he believed in the Lord; and
he counted it to him for
righteousness” (Genesis 15:6).
Romans 4:1-5 verifies that Abraham’s faith
was not placed in a righteousness-reward
relationship.
Saving faith would not be forged by
observing laws, traditions, or even the
repetitious sacrifices that would be the
evidence, but not the means, of faith.
Point of Romans 4:1-5: Abraham was
justified (declared righteous before God) by
faith, not by works.
Today justification (to be declared
righteous) is also by faith, but with this
important difference:
Whereas Abraham believed God would
give him a son . . . we believe God has
given us His Son, and that by faith in Him
we are saved . . .
Therefore, the basis of saving
faith, Old Testament or New, is
always in the Son.
The question is only whether
one is looking forward to His
coming, or back to the
Redeemer who has come . . .
Time Before Christ
(OT believers looked forward)
Time Since Christ
(NT believers look back)
1000BC. . . 500 BC... 100 BC…..0 …100 AD…500 AD…2021 AD
Salvation in the Old Testament
Therefore, salvation in the Old
Testament occurs the same way as in
the New Testament.
We are “saved by grace through
faith . . . not of works” (Ephesians
2:8-9).

Salvation in the Old Testament

  • 1. Salvation in the Old Testament The Doctrine of Salvation
  • 2. How are we Saved? The FAITH “Key Question” . . . “In your personal opinion, what do you understand it takes for a person to go to heaven?”
  • 4. The “Faith” Answer “The only way we may be saved from the penalty of our sin is to believe in the One True God who made Himself known to us by coming to us in the Person of Jesus Christ, the God-Man, the one who died on the cross for our sins and rose again from the grave. We must repent and believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and receive Him as our own Personal Lord and Savior. There is no other way we may be saved.”
  • 5. Now, imagine your friend asks you these questions . . .
  • 6. But what about those who lived before Jesus came? ■ What about those who lived before the cross? ■ What about those who lived in the “BC” part of the time-line? ■ They can’t receive Christ as Lord and Savior because Jesus Christ has not yet come, right?. . .
  • 7. How would you respond?
  • 8. The Seed The foundation upon which redemption would rest was God’s promise of a coming seed. In addressing Satan in the immediate aftermath of the fall, the Lord said . . . Genesis 3:15. . . “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel.”
  • 9. The line of the promised seed was announced in Genesis 12:2-3 . . . “ . . . and in you (Abraham) all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” The identity of the line of the seed to be blessed was particularized in Genesis 17:19: “and you shall call his name Isaac; I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his descendants after him.”
  • 10. The Son And so, through the seed of Abraham grew the promise. The line of the promised seed flourished until it produced its final fruit in the Son. Galatians 3:16 . . . “Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, ‘And to seeds,’ as of many, but as of one, ‘And to your Seed,’ who is Christ.”
  • 11. The Sinner The window to salvation, from the manward side, is opened in a phrase associated with Abraham’s acceptance of God’s promise of an heir—His promised seed: “And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness” (Genesis 15:6).
  • 12. Romans 4:1-5 verifies that Abraham’s faith was not placed in a righteousness-reward relationship. Saving faith would not be forged by observing laws, traditions, or even the repetitious sacrifices that would be the evidence, but not the means, of faith. Point of Romans 4:1-5: Abraham was justified (declared righteous before God) by faith, not by works.
  • 13. Today justification (to be declared righteous) is also by faith, but with this important difference: Whereas Abraham believed God would give him a son . . . we believe God has given us His Son, and that by faith in Him we are saved . . .
  • 14. Therefore, the basis of saving faith, Old Testament or New, is always in the Son. The question is only whether one is looking forward to His coming, or back to the Redeemer who has come . . .
  • 15. Time Before Christ (OT believers looked forward) Time Since Christ (NT believers look back) 1000BC. . . 500 BC... 100 BC…..0 …100 AD…500 AD…2021 AD
  • 16. Salvation in the Old Testament Therefore, salvation in the Old Testament occurs the same way as in the New Testament. We are “saved by grace through faith . . . not of works” (Ephesians 2:8-9).
