Christians believe Jesus to be the son of God and was sent to the world to save them from their sins. They believing that his coming was known for hundreds of years before he actually descended. Christians believe that a lot of prophets in the old testament foresaw his coming. Below are some of the prophecies about Jesus.
According to the book of Genesis 12:3, God promised Abraham that he would use his lineage to bless all the nations of the earth. This is why up to date; Abraham is known as the father of many nations. This was fulfilled in the new testament in Acts3:25-26 when God said he would send his servant to save the offspring of his prophets from their wicked ways.
David is another man from the bible who truly left a mark in the world. He was one of the most blessed men to walk the other. These blessings can be traced back to Abraham who made so many covenants with God. Jesus also descended from the lineage of David as he was severally referred to as Jesus son of David, son of Abraham.
The prophet Isaiah foretold that Son of God would be born of a virgin girl. This is in the book of Isaiah 7:14. Later in the new testament, an angel appeared to Mary the mother of Son of God and informed her she would get pregnant. She was told it would be through the power of the holy spirit. This all happened in the book of Luke 1:35.
It was said that at one time, the Messiah would end up in Egypt. This is as indicated on the book of Hosea 11:1. Sure enough, after his birth, both Son of God and his parents had to flee from Israel to keep him safe. This is because the reigning king wanted to kill the new king he had heard of. According to matthew 2:14-15 God brought them back to Israel after King Herod was dead and no longer posed a threat to Son of God.
It was clearly stated that he would be inated in the town of Bethlehem in the city of Judea and this is written in the paper of Micah 5:2. As the years passed, people would still ask if the Messiah was to be born in Bethlehem to which they were told he would. It was said a greater ruler would come from Bethlehem in relation to Matthew 2:4-6.
After sinning, humans and the serpents were to loathe each other for eternity. God proclaimed that the serpents would always bite the humans heel and the human would always crush the head of the serpent. According to Genesis 3:15. This was at the beginning of time and sure enough, Jesus came to destroy the work of the devil according to 1st John 3:18.
People no longer have to offer lambs for sacrifice in order to be forgiven. God sent down the ultimate sacrifice which was Jesus Christ. He had no blemishes like all the sacrificed animals. He was sinless and being the son of God, his sacrifice was enough to echo throughout all of eternity.
