The Simplicity of Scripture alone

The Bible alone is God's word. The Bible speaks of what content it teaches. All Scripture points to Christ alone. Peter says even the prophets testify of Christ, Acts 10:42-43. Also one can see how the apostles and deacons handled the OT in Acts 2 and 7. Not only in Acts but the Gospels as well. Jesus says if you had believed Moses, then you would had believed in Him too for Moses speaks of Christ, John 5:46. One of the very things that Christ did after he was raised from the dead was to show his disciples how the Scripture must be fulfilled and testify of Christ, Luke 24:25-27. Certainly the Bible is not complex but is simple. It is not Scripture that confuses people but the minds of men who are sinful that do so. Who can free us from such state? As the Apostle says in Romans 7 it is Christ alone.
