Typology
The study of typology is a
wonderful study. Biblical typology should never be
used to teach new doctrine, but rather to reinforce a
doctrine already plainly taught in the scriptures. The
articles listed on this page will be the
newest additions and you may
search the archived material by topic or by text.

Rose of Sharon -

Sharon.

Hebrews 7:17, 26:

and ask forgiveness, but you can approach the throne of grace with
boldness through the shed blood of our High Priest.

Christ a King:
There is no higher name or title to set forth
dignity amongst men, than kings or mighty potentates. There is nothing
doth more fully set forth the glory, power, and splendor of Christ than
this. -
Christ
- The Servant of God - Isaiah 42:1; 49:6:
A Servant is one
chosen to office. If men have work or business to do, they choose one to
be their servant, whom they think fitly qualified, and able to do it.
Christ was chosen by the Father. Not to one office only, but to many. To
be a Mediator, King, Priest and Prophet.

Christ the Way -

Christ a
Physician:
Christ cures all that come to him, whatsoever the
distemper be, he hath an universal medicine, with
which he infallibly cures all sicknesses, diseases,
and wounds of the soul. -
Christ a
Bridegroom:
A Bridegroom presupposes two things. First, a person
in a single capacity; and as so considered, he is a
suitor. Secondly, a person in a married estate; and
as so considered, he is a head or husband. In both
these respects Christ may be considered, and is held
forth in the word of God.
