Reading through the Old Testament last semester, I pictured God differently than I do when I read the NT. In the OT He is lawful, just, a guide, even distant than what I believe Him to be now. But, my professor spoke truth that changed me, "God has always been what we know Jesus to be."
It's true that God is just and a guide, but He is not distant. He is personal, Sovereign and interested in the details of our lives. Just as I have always been taught how Jesus is. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is unchanging. This changes the way I read the Old Testament entirely.
