The so-called “God of the Old Testament” is a fuzzy photograph taken with a telephoto lens by those who could not appreciate what they were looking at. Moses, Elijah, and the other Old Testament prophets had a revelation of God but they did not fully know him. Before Jesus, nobody did. God is simply too big for mortal minds to grasp. The only person who can accurately explain God is God himself, and he did this by sending us his Son (John 1:18). Jesus is God explaining himself to the human race. Jesus is the answer to the question, “What is God like?”
