Jesus: Promised Messiah


 

Jesus is the Messiah. He completely fulfills the Old Testament Prophecies

    Born of a virgin            Isaiah 7:14    Matt 1:22-23

    Born in Bethlehem            Micah 5:2    Matt 2:1-6

    Grew up in Egypt            Hosea 11:1    Matt 2:13-15

    Began His ministry in Capernaum    Isaiah 9:1-2    Matt 4:12-17

    Healed their diseases            Isaiah 53:4    Matt 8:14-17

    God's Messenger prepared his way    Malachi 3:1    Matt 11:7-11

    God's Suffering Servant        Isaiah 42:1-4    Matt 12:15-21

    Taught in Parables            Psalm 78:2    Matt 13:34-35

    Triumphal entry on a colt        Zech 9:9    Matt 21:1-5

    He is the rejected cornerstone        Ps 118:22-23    Matt 21:42-44

    Disciples abandoned Him        Zech 13:7    Matt 26:31-32

    Gambled for His garments        Psalm 22:18    Matt 27:35


 

Many of the Jewish leaders failed to recognize this while Jesus was performing His public ministry. Even John the Baptist nearly missed the significance of these predictions.        Matt 11:1-6


 

The messianic kingdom has been inaugurated in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ.                    Matt 12:22-28


 

What will you make of Jesus of Nazareth? How do you respond to the evidence Matthew presents?
