The Bible is a Hologram

Not just one dimensional, the Bible is a hologram. This might be the first time you’ve ever considered that. But much of the Old Testament is a picture of Christ coming in the New Testament. I can safely say that because after Jesus rose from the dead, in a disguised way, He walked along the road to Emmaus with two disciples who were discussing the fact that Jesus had just died, when they thought He’d live forever. Jesus, still disguised, beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. (Luke 24:27)

When it says “beginning at Moses,” He was referring to the first five books of that Bible, which Moses wrote. Christ is pictured in the first five books of the Bible. He said so Himself. Where is He pictured? I would have liked to have been on that road and heard the passages Jesus pointed out about Himself.

But there’s one we know for sure, because Jesus said what it was in John 6:31-35 when He said, “I am the bread of life.” Read that passage, and it’s in the context of God providing manna from heaven to the Israelites as they wandered in the wilderness after escaping Egypt.

Since we know that, we can go back to Exodus 16 and look at that story with our hologram glasses on. Let’s go on that journey together.

Jesus as manna in Exodus	Application of Jesus as the manna
And the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger. Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; (Ex. 16:3-4a) The supply wasn’t there until the desperate need.	They didn’t get this bread from heaven until they realized that if they didn’t have bread from God, they were going to die. Jesus is the bread of life, but He is of no use to those who don’t recognize that unless they believe and receive Him, they will die. For the Israelites, this realization came on the 15th day of the second month after they departed from Egypt (Ex. 16:1). Do you have a date when you recognized that without Jesus, you would die?
At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God. (Ex 16:12b) You don’t know God until you know Jesus.	Until you believe and receive Jesus as your savior, you don’t know God.  He that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? (Joh 14:9b)
And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating. (Ex 16:18)	Jesus completely satisfies. He is not too much to handle. He’s not too little to meet the need. No matter the size of your capacity to receive Him, He fits the space.
And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted. (Ex 16:21)	There is only a certain time available to partake of Christ. If you wait too long, your opportunity will be gone. Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. (2Cor. 6:2b)
