“A 5-Point Scripture-by-Scripture Sermon on the Prophecy of Messiah and its Fulfillment in Jesus Alone, Pt 1"


There is a great amount of prophetic fulfillment in the written Scriptures about the Messiah.  I will spend time on ten points in this basic sermon to illustrate the profound and awesome prophetic fulfillment.  
There is a lot of Scriptures to comprehend.  I thought it would be best to take it in certain parts so there is less prophetic information so it can digested.  To God alone be the glory!
  1. The prophecy of Messiah being from the lineage of David is seen in 2 Samuel 7:12-13, 16; 1 Chronicles 17:11-12; Psalm 89:29, 35-36; 132:11, 17; Jeremiah 23:5; 33:14-15 and Ezekiel 34:23-24 and fulfilled in Matthew 1:1; 9:27; Luke 1:31-32, 68-70; 3:23-31 and Revelation 22:16.
  2. The prophecy of the Messiah being born of a virgin is seen in Genesis 3:15, Isaiah 7:14, Jeremiah 31:22 is fulfilled in Matthew 1:18-20, Luke 1:34-35; 2:11 and Galatians 4:4.  
  3. The prophecy that Messiah would be crucified is seen in Daniel 9:26; Psalm 22:14-16; Isaiah 53:8 and Zechariah 13:7 and fulfilled in Matthew 27:35; Mark 15:24; Luke 23:33 and John 19:18.
  4. The prophecy that Messiah would be resurrected is seen in Psalm 16:8-10; Isaiah 25:8; Psalm 30:3; 41:10; 49:9, 15; 118:17-18; Isaiah 53:10 and Hosea 6:2; 13:14 and it is fulfilled in 1 Corinthians 15:4-7; Matthew 28:5-7; Mark 16:6-7; Luke 24:5-7; Acts 2:25-32; 10:40-41; 13:30-37; Romans 1:3-4; 1 Corinthians 15:55-57; 2 Timothy 1:10 and Revelation 1:17-18.
  5. The prophecy of Messiah is the birth place of Bethlehem Micah 5:2 and it is fulfilled in Matthew 2:1-2.
The question is, why do you reject God's only Son as the only begotten of the Father?  Jesus Christ is fully man and fully God.  He possess two natures and He is sinless.  He is Jehovah in human flesh and He came to redeem sinners.  He calls all men everywhere to repent and believe the gospel.  Repentance to a false god is false repentance.  You must repent to the Father through His Son by His Spirit.  Do not reject God's only Son because of peer pressure or family heritage.  Rather embrace Jesus Christ as your Savior and Creator; He is the Incarnate Second Person of the Godhead (Matthew 28ff).  He came to give you a new faith, a new nature, a new righteousness, a new obedience, a new life in Christ alone.
