Is the Body of Christ or the Rapture found in the Old Testament?
No. Paul teaches that the Old Testament things were written not for our doctrine. You will not find grace and salvation there, nor anything concerning the Body of Christ or the Rapture, which are indicative of the Body of Christ. The Old Testament gives foundation, but not these doctrines.
Les explains that while the Gospel accounts contain perfect applications for us, they were spoken to Israel under the Law. Paul declares that the Old Testament things were not written for our doctrine. Grace and salvation are not found in the Old Testament, nor is anything concerning the Body of Christ or the Rapture. Yet Les insists we should still study the Old Testament, especially Genesis, because it provides the foundation for what grace-age believers believe. He also illustrates the comfort of Scripture by recalling David, who mourned his child from Bathsheba but concluded he would go to him.
