Messianic Prophecies

Messianic Prophecies. Randall Niles shares 40 prophecies of a coming Messiah in the Jewish scriptures (Old Testament).

THE LIFE OF JESUS

(The story of Jesus Christ as told in Old Testament prophecy with scripture references)

The Messiah preexists time (Gen. 1:1). He is the eternal Redeemer that will come to earth to reconcile mankind with God (Job 19:25-26). Although Satan will try to attack Him, the Messiah will have ultimate victory (Gen. 3:15). One day He will rule over everything and all nations will bow down to Him (Is 45:23, Ps 22).

The Messiah will descend from Shem (Gen 9 10), Abraham (Gen 22:18), Isaac (Gen 26:4), Jacob (Gen 28:14), Judah (Gen 49:10), Jesse (Is 11:1--5) and David (2 Sam 7:11--16). He will be born in the city of Bethlehem in the county of Ephrathah (Mic 5:2) when a bright star appears (Num 24:17). It will be a miraculous, virgin birth (Is 7:14).

The Messiah will be unique, having preexisted His birth (Mic 5:2). He will perform many miracles: calming the sea (Ps 107:29), causing the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the lame to walk, and the mute to talk (Is 35:4--6). He will be referred to in many ways, including: God With Us (Is 7:14), Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace (Is 9:6). He will be a great teacher and will use parables (Ps 78:2).

But the Messiah will come to save mankind (Is 53:3-9). He will become mans sin offering (Is 53:3-9) and present Himself to Jerusalem as both the anointed King (Zech 9:9) and the Passover Lamb (Is 53:3-9). This will occur 173,880 days after the decree by Artaxerxes to rebuild both Jerusalem and the temple (Dan 9:20-27). So, in early April, 33 AD, the Messiah will present Himself to a rejoicing Jerusalem riding on a donkey (Zech 9:9). But then He will suffer greatly (Is 53:3-9). Many will reject Him, including His friends (Is 53:3-9). He will be betrayed by a friend (Ps 41:9) for 30 pieces of silver (Zech 11:12,13). Later, that money will be thrown on the floor of the temple (Zech 11:12,13) and will eventually go to a potter (Zech 11:12,13). At His trial He will not defend Himself. He will say nothing (Is 53:3-9) except as required by law. Israel will reject Him (Is 8:14).

The Messiah will be taken to a mountaintop identified to Abraham as the Lord will provide (Gen 22). There He will be crucified with His hands and feet pierced (Ps 22). His enemies will encircle Him (Ps 22), mocking Him, and will cast lots for His clothing (Ps 22). He will call to God, asking why He was forsaken (Ps 22). He will be given gall and wine (Ps 69:20-22). He will die with thieves (Is 53:3-9). But, unlike the thieves, none of His bones will be broken (Ps 22). His heart will fail (Ps 22), as indicated by blood and water spilling out (Ps 22) when He is pierced with a spear (Zech 12:10). He will be buried in a rich mans grave (Is 53:3-9). In three days, He will rise from the dead (Ps 22).

I posted The Story of Jesus Christ as told in Old Testament Prophecy (with scripture references) under the "More Info" tab in the column to the right. Enjoy!

Great story! :) I think it would be very beneficial for those watching this video if you could list the Scriptural references in the description area. Great video!

[reflect7]

Great idea! I just added the story with scripture references in the description to the right - Thanks!

A muslim doesnt believe in Yeshua...because he follows another "god" who commands his followers to kill Christians and Jews...and Yeshua said: "Love your enemies. Bless those who curse you". Yeshua is Melech Israel who is coming soon to rule from Yerushalayim! AMEN

@LouisPlume I believe those were stories written by one author in a span of a few decades. These prophecies are recorded thousands of years ago by what are believed to be prophets, fulfilled historically the exact year and season as predicted in the scripture by one man alone. More than 300 prophecies fulfilled.

Save Us From Ourselves Oh Lord , Save Us From Ourselves!

Jesus was well taught in Jewish Scriptures. He was quite capable of Interpreting the prophecies and then doing it as he read them. The new Testament mentions him doing acts to fulfill prophecy plus he still didn't fulfill them all.

[LouisPlume]

The evidence is underwhelming. Because there is a Prophesy in Lord of the rings book 1, that happens in book 2. Doesnt make Billbo Bagins a real Character.

@x11115 read the bible

I doubt any of that can be proved as factual or authentic.  Prove it - I'll believe.
