The coming of Messiah, promised in the OLD and fulfilled in the NEW Testament, include his birth, character, work, teaching, sufferings, death, and even his resurrection. This is the grandest and most central theme of the Bible. The OLD Testament is in the NEW Testament, revealed; and the NEW Testament is in the OLD, concealed. In chapter 35 Isaiah concealed four specific prophecies in verses 5&6, that are revealed by Matthew, Mark, and John (three of the four writers of the gospels) as being fulfilled by Jesus. Unbeknownst to most, fulfilled prophecy is found in the Bible ALONE! The OLD Testament predictions are so minute, so voluminous, and so complete, that I would suggest no honest person, who truly examines the Messianic prophecies in the Bible, could come to any other logical conclusion than they could be fulfilled by anyone other than Jesus of Nazareth. Nowhere in any literature of the world, secular or religious, can you find a duplicate of the astounding miracle of the pre-written history of Jesus' life. Indeed, nothing but Divine prescience could have foreseen this miracle, and nothing but Divine intervention could have accomplished it in such detail. |
