Messianic Bible prophecy involving Jesus Christ

Messianic Bible prophecy involving Jesus Christ: "Messianic prophecies fulfilled by Jesus Christ By George Konig and Ray Konig http://www.konig.org/ ______________________ Jesus is unique among all people in history in that he is the fulfillment of centuries of Messianic prophecies, which are found in the Old Testament of the Bible, that foretold his place of birth, details of his life, his mission, his nature, his death, and his resurrection. The prophecies are sometimes called 'Messianic prophecies,' because they refer to the Messiah, which means 'anointed one' or 'chosen one.' Some scholars estimate that there are more than 300 Messianic prophecies in the Bible's Old Testament that refer to the Messiah (Jesus). You can learn more about Bible prophecy at AboutBibleProphecy.com, and we have included a sampling below. These prophecies, as well as the books of the Old Testament, were written centuries before Jesus was born. Many people think of Bible prophecies as being predictions about the future. Strictly speaking, they are not predictions, they are promises from God. Whereas a prediction can be a guess, a prophecy is more than a guess, it is a revelation from God about the future. To the extent that this article uses the word 'prediction,' the word is used synonymously with 'foretelling,' 'foretold,' or 'promised.' Jesus foretold his death and resurrection See Matthew 20:17-19, as an example. Many of the early Christians, some of whom personally knew Jesus, were willing to risk death to tell others about Jesus and his offer of salvation and eternal life"
