"The Truth Revealed in Jesus When prophets stood in defense of the truth, it was the word of God that was given to them. They understood the work of salvation to be accomplished by the Messiah to come. But after Christ came, after he died as man's sacrifice, after the typical sacrifices were fulfilled by the antitype, the old truth in the typical service was revealed more clearly. In Christ, the representative of the Father, a wonderful truth was revealed to the world. The light from the cross of Calvary, reflected back upon the Jewish age, gives character and significance to the whole Jewish economy; and on this side of the cross, in a special manner, we have the truth as it is in Jesus. Truth communicated through our Redeemer becomes indeed present truth.

Når profeterne forsvarede sandheden, blev Guds ord givet til dem. De forstod den frelsesgerning, som skulle gennemføres af den kommende Messias. Først efter Kristi komme, efter hans død som menneskers stedfortræder efter at de symbolske ofringer blev opfyldt af modbilledet, kom de gamle sandheder om symbolerne frem i et klarere lys. En forunderlig sandhed blev åbenbaret for verden i Kristus som Faderens repræsentant. Lyset fra Golgatas kors viste tilbage til den jødiske tidsalder og forklarer betydningen af hele det jødiske system og på den ene side af korset har vi den helt specielle sandhed, som den er i Jesus. Sandheden meddelt ved vor Forløser bliver en virkelig nærværende sandhed.
