The accent in this booklet is on Moses because his true purpose and personality are not visible in most "Christian" literature. Our style of presentation is not pedantic, argumentative or coldly factual, but rather, personal, intimate— an attempt to give human warmth and feeling. In that concept, some quotes are not intended to represent "Scripture"—adequate documentation of actual Scripture is present and so identified—but to give the "feel" of any given situation gained from decades of study and teaching; "poetic license," if you please.
This booklet is pitifully brief, intended only as an introduction to concepts and ideas you may not have heard before, with the hope that you will pursue greater knowledge, understanding and friendship with both Moses and Jesus.
"For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ" (John 1:17). Was Moses ever acquainted with grace and truth? Did Jesus ignore the law? Did these two prophets—one the founder of Israel and mediator of the Old Covenant, the other the Son of God and Mediator of the New Covenant—have anything in common? Were they Jekyll and Hyde, or two of a kind? Were they opposites, or just alike? Contradictory or complementary? Let's get to know both Moses and Jesus better—the tale of these two prophets is fascinating!

Having found the full Booklet I am using that, rather than a series of articles as indicated last week. By seeing the realtionship between Moses and Christ, the identity of “that prophet” can be more easily seen.
