Messianic
Prophecies
Is
Jesus really back there, in the Old Testament? Have
the predictions about Jesus been fulfilled by His
coming, by His life? Is there any way of showing
that Jesus is truly back there?
Jesus
as the Messiah, as predicted in the Old Testament,
is fundamental to the Christian faith. Believers
are convinced that Jesus spoke Truth when He said: John 5:39 Search
the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal
life: and they are they which testify of me. [KJV]
The
Jews believe the Messiah would be a Deliverer who
would rescue Israel from her enemies and establish
Jerusalem as the capital of a world government.
Since Jesus did not do this at His first coming,
they refuse to believe He is the Messiah, and keep
looking for Him to come.
Christians
Believe Prophecy About Christ
- He
will be despised and rejected (Is.53:3).
- He
will die for our sin (Is.53:6).
- He will be “cut off” (die) before
the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple
(Dan.9:24-27).
- He will live, after He dies (Is.53:10).
- He will justify many (Is.53:11).
- He will be a light to the Gentiles (Is.49:6).
Christians believe that these prophecies
show the Messiah as suffering, dying and rising
from death to provide salvation from sin’s
penalty before restoring Israel and ruling the Earth
from Jerusalem (the millennium).
I think the following prophecies and
their fulfillment should be proof that Jesus is
indeed back there in the Old Testament.
