The Messiah

4/20/2014

It’s been said, “The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed.” All throughout the Old Testament God’s Word tells of a coming Saviour, It prophesies of the coming Messiah.  A promised redeemer anointed to preach good tidings unto the meek, One who will come and bind the broken hearted; the Saviour who will proclaim liberty to the captives. One who will give beauty for ashes (see Isaiah 61:1-3.) Remember the Bible authenticates Jesus and Jesus authenticates the Bible.

Please consider the prophesies and the fulfillment of them.

 Bones not broken

Prophecy:
"He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken." Psalm 34:20

Fulfillment:
"But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs" John 19:33

 Heartbroken

Prophecy:
"My heart is like wax: it is melted in the midst of my bowels" Psalm 22:14b

Fulfillment:
"But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water." John 19:34
Note- The blood and water that came from His pierced side are evidence that His heart literally burst.

 His side pierced

Prophecy:
"They shall look upon me whom they have pierced" Zechariah 12:10b

Fulfillment:
"But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side" John 19:34a

Darkness over the land

Prophecy:
"And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day" Amos 8:9

Fulfillment:
"Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour." Matthew 27:45

 Buried in a rich man's tomb

Prophecy:
"And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death" Isaiah 53:9a

Fulfillment:
"When the even was come, there was a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus disciple: He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus, Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered. And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed." Matthew 27:57-60

I recently read that a liberal New Testament Scholar Named H.J. Schonfield came to the conclusion that all these types of prophecies were a farce.  He believed that Jesus must have pretended or manipulated these situations so that He would appear to be the Messiah. Just as in the days of Jesus there has been and always will be those who dispute and deny that Jesus Christ is the Messiah. In the days that we live in we also have the same thoughts being peddled and pushed by the so called scholars. I say, "Let God be true, but every man a liar" (Romans 3:4)
