"The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached." Until John, the law and the prophets were preached. Since that time (after John) the kingdom of God (Christ risen) is preached. B.C./A.D.It doesn't say that. Jesus preached the prophets. So did Peter and Paul and the apostles. And Peter's last words admonished the church to remember the words of the prophets. It means that the age of the prophets and writings from them ended with John. It doesn't mean that all of what they said had been fulfilled with John.
