Question: How do we know the Bible is true? Part 3 Fulfilled Prophecy Beverly Flori
Answer:
There are many evidences that confirm the Bible is true. One of the most powerful is fulfilled prophecy. There are hundreds of prophecies that have been given and fulfilled in the Scriptures, but we will look specifically at a few of the dozens of Messianic prophecies. These prophecies are not vague generalizations that could be fulfilled by any number of people, but specific, detailed prophecies that have only been fulfilled by one Man in history, Jesus Christ. How many religious leaders do you know who predicted the circumstances of their birth and death? How many who predicted their resurrection from the dead? Jesus Christ is the ONE and ONLY. There is NO coincidence here. Listed below are 12 of the 61 specifically Messianic prophecies that Josh McDowell, a premier Christian apologist, discusses in his detailed book, The New Evidence That Demands a Verdict. Of these 61 prophecies, 29 of them concerning Jesus’ betrayal, trial, death and burial were fulfilled in one day! God’s Word is true!
