When Jesus died, the temple veil was torn in two. Why does that matter?
Because the torn veil showed that Christ opened the way for sinners to come to God. What had once been closed under the Old Covenant was opened through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.
In this sermon, I explain what the veil represented, why access to God was restricted in the Old Testament, and what Luke 23:45 teaches us about the gospel.

In Luke 24:28–35, the disciples’ eyes were opened, and they recognized the risen Christ.
Then they said, “Did not our hearts burn within us…while he opened to us the Scriptures?” Luke 24:32

How does the Old Testament point to Jesus?
In Luke 24:27, Jesus began with Moses and all the Prophets and showed the disciples “in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.”
The cross was not the defeat of the Messiah. It was His mission.
