Reading the Bible as Jesus did

I'm reading Asking the Right Questions by Matthew S Harmon. The third chapter is called "Reading the Bible as Jesus did. Here are the highlights:

The Old Testament is about Jesus (John 5:39, John 5:46)
Jesus knew this and explained it to his disciples after the resurrection (Luke 24:25-27,44,45,46-49).

Lens to view scripture through

1. When reading we should keep in mind the main point is Jesus Christ
2. Reading and understanding the Bible requires help from God
3. All scripture points to what Christ has done for us or our need for him
4. The center is the death and resurrection of Christ and the call for all nations to turn away from sin and trust Jesus

Guiding principles

1. God's promises relay upon the person and work of Jesus (2 Cor 1:20)
2. God's plan of salvation and his kingdom is for everyone yet some do not accept this (John 3:16-21). Yet we faithfully bring truth to people 2 Cor 4:13-18. They won't know unless someone tells them (Faith comes by hearing the word about Christ (Romans 10:14-21)
3. God's sovereignty is shown in correspondence, Moses and Jesus (Moses life is preserved by God for His eternal purpose), our lives and theirs
4. As we read with faith our understanding will deepen and grow
