Christocentrism and Christotelism

...it is best to understand Christocentrism as the tenet that Christ is the central redemptive subject matter of the Old Testament, understood on its own terms, quite apart from the New Testament Scriptures. Christotelism is best understood to entail that Christ is the consummate telos of what the Old Testament Scriptures promise, namely, a crucified and resurrected Messiah. The christocentric and the christotelic require one another and mutually contextualize one another; the one does not exist apart from the other.
