Fact #6: FEEPS
The Old Testament is FEEPS – Figures, Examples, Ensamples, Patterns, and Shadows!
The Old Testament is full of FEEPS, which stands for Figures, Examples, Ensamples, Patterns, and Shadows. This is one of the most powerful Bible study methods you can learn. It means the Old Testament was written to paint a picture of things to be revealed in the New Testament. Above all, these FEEPS show us Jesus and His coming long before He was born in Bethlehem.
Why This Study Method is Valuable
Learning to spot these patterns is key to a deeper Bible study. Many people read the Old Testament and miss how it all connects to Christ. The courses and teachings at Just Word Ministries are designed to train your eye to see these FEEPS. We guide you through the Word of God, showing you how a story, a person, or an event is a “shadow” pointing to a New Testament truth. This method changes how you read the Bible, turning it from a collection of separate books into one unified story about Jesus.
