In the days when the Roman Empire flourished, it was said, 'All roads lead to Rome.' A wise old man once counselled a young preacher, 'In every test of Scripture there is a road which leads to Jesus Christ and him crucified. Your business is to find that road and get on it.' In this series of studies, which were prepared out of a pastoral concern for his own congregation and church leaders, Henry Mahan shows how well-known passages and incidents of the Old Testament all point to Christ - his person, glory and redemptive work. These studies will be of value to those who teach Bible classes in Sunday;y School, house groups, Christian unions or youth groups, as well as to those who want help in their personal devotion. questions are included at the end of each chapter for further study or discussion.
In March 1947 Pastor Henry Mahan and his wife, Doris, moved to Ashland, KY to work with Pastor Donald Wells and the Southern Baptist church -Pollard Baptist. In September 1947, realizing that he needed more training and education, the Mahans moved to Chattanooga, TN, where he attended Tennessee Temple College for three years. While there he pastored the Oakwood Baptist Church.
In April 1950, the Pollard Baptist Church called Pastor Mahan to be Pastor Wells' assistant pastor. In August 1951 Pastor Wells resigned the church and moved to Chattanooga, TN. The church called Pastor Mahan to be their pastor in October 1951.
Finally, in the late 70's he began to write his own Sunday School lessons, verse by verse through the New Testament; and the teachers used these from that day forward.
