2. Warnings From Israel’s History
”For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers and sisters, that our
ancestors were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea. 2
They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3 They all ate the
same spiritual food 4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the
spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. 5 Nevertheless,
God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered in the
wilderness.
6Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our hearts on
evil things as they did. 7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is
written: “The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry.”[8
We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did—and in one day
twenty-three thousand of them died. 9 We should not test Christ, as some of them
did—and were killed by snakes. 10 And do not grumble, as some of them did—and
were killed by the destroying angel. 11
These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings
for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come “ (1 Cor 10:1-11 KJV).

Group 1: You must know the Old Testament to understand the New
Testament—Some things in the Old Testament have typology that you
need to confirm in the New. God revealed more about Himself from
the Old Testament to the New. He gave progressive revelation
knowledge.
Group 2: Reflects events that happened before the New Covenant.—
The blood sacrifice is one of the central messages of the Old
Testament. The blood of the lamb…atonement for our sins. Laid the
framework for the New Testament and coming of the Messiah.
Group 3: Gives us a history of who God is and what He wants us to
do. They didn’t know who they were worshipping. It’s like building a
pyramid. The Old Testament sets a foundation and helps us
understand God and His righteousness. The Old Testament enriches
the New Testament and is a guiding light to it.
