Types
Part I
Lesson
XIII
Subject: Dispensational Typology
In typology, a story is
recorded in the Bible that is far reaching in its implications. The story, although it may be wonderful in
itself, points forward to an event far greater and more wonderful yet to
come. For this lesson it is necessary to
repeat some facts already stated in other lessons so that together we can see a
picture of events, certainly planned by God and not by man.

Adam, the first type of
Christ in the Bible

the Scriptures
