What is a biblical principle?

[donadams]

Types and figures or prefigures
Are they valid

example: the promised land.
do you see the promised land of Moses as a type of heaven?


Do these refer to the old and new covenants

JTB said he must increase, I must decrease

JTB represents the old and Christ the new?

and from Jn 2 saved the best for last is a reference to the new covenant of grace?

thanks

do you see the promised land of Moses as a type of heaven?

No.

 

[donadams]

No.

Really?
a type is for our instruction

I see it that way and the children of
Israel in bondage down in Egypt as a type also
What about queen Esther as a type of mary

Really?
a type is for our instruction

All right, but you asked me about one single event in Bible history.

All right, but you asked me about one single event in Bible history.

There are many OT types fulfilled in the new right?

Is it permissible to draw conclusions from scripture?

examples:
Jn 14:6 Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life!
Since these are attributes of God therefore Jesus must be Divine?
