Welcome to this lesson Welcome to this lecture What will we be covering in this lecture We

will explore certain prophecies related to Jesus the Messianic prophecies What you will learn from this

section is how significant these prophecies are about Christ coming including Bible verses We always

go back to context how these prophecies were fulfilled The life the ministry and the identity

of Christ connecting the old and the New Testament Promises to their New Testament realizations thematic

connections between prophecies including redemption justice And we will talk about the nature of the Messiah's mission

Also get into the relevance and application of these prophecies to modern day Christian faith and belief

in Christ Again we will follow the same format of providing Bible verses brief explanations for each If it seems

like we're moving a little bit too quickly or you're feeling overwhelmed please pause the video take a break come

back to it Remember you can rewind you can re-watch that's the point of this course Re-watch

the videos go back through the videos so you can learn from them right Don't just watch

them once I recommend watching them multiple times in multiple different areas So these lectures are designed to be

watched that way to be learned that way to jump around from course to course within the academy

learning as you go So additionally if any particular prophecy interest you you can do a deeper study into

it A specific topic study into that prophecy Now let's get into some of these prophecies here Prophecies

related to Jesus the Messiah We'll start with Isaiah the Emanuel prophecy What is the

verse here 714 Isaiah's prophecy foretells a miraculous sign a virgin conceiving giving birth to a

son named Emmanuel which means God with us So what did this prophecy fulfill What

does this prophecy mean This prophecy finds fulfillment in Christ himself really emphasizes his divine nature of who he is

now in Micah The promise of Bethlehem Ok We see the verse here the example Micah 52 Micah's prophecy identifies

Bethlehem as the birthplace of the Messiah who will be the ruler over Israel So what

does this mean This prophecy aligns with the gospel accounts of Jesus birth in Bethlehem born in

Bethlehem That's how this lined up and came true So Isaiah the suffering servant let's get into the verse here

leading to healing We know this is this can only be Christ We see the theme of all these prophecies

all pointing to Jesus pointing to Christ pointing to the Messiah So this prophecy it captures the redemptive purpose

of Christ's sacrifice Christ will come for us He will die for us on the cross He will

pay for our sins Isaiah was predicting this So it this is exciting to see how they

were predicted so long ago and they've come true So this what this is meant to do

underlying is give faith in the rest of the Bible that has not come true yet the prophecies that

we have not seen yet the prophecies that are yet to unfold It's exciting to think about Now Zechariah

this is the triumphal entry OK What is the verse here 99 Zechariah paints a

pretty particular picture of the Messiah's entry into Jerusalem How will he come into Jerusalem riding on a donkey

What is the message here What does it signify humility and victory So this prophecy it aligns with Christ triumphal

entry before his crucifixion So you see how this everything lines up and everything works

the way it's supposed to work Only God only God's hand could make all these

things work in this exact way Let's look at Isaiah again the light in the darkness Ok Isaiah had

a lot of prophecies Isaiah 92 speaks of a great light shining in darkness symbolizing hope symbolizing

salvation So this light as you can imagine is fulfilled in Jesus who proclaimed himself

as the light of the world So Psalm 22 the crucifixion What is the verse here to to give an

example It's not a traditional prophecy but Psalm 22 describes the agony suffering of the

Messiah OK with details reminiscent to Jesus crucifixion and his events So we see this going back into

the Psalms as well predicting Christ would come he would be crucified pay for our sins This is what

would happen this is how it would happen So these prophecies get very exciting They continue to go on and

on and we see these predictions we see these predictions of Christ coming what he would do for

us how he would do that for us we see in Daniel ok The son of man Daniel

has predicted a lot of end times prophecy a lot of prophecy to the king

right A lot of prophecy to the pharaoh So now let's get into Daniel 713 Daniel's vision of the son

of man coming with the clouds symbolizes the Messiah's exaltation and authority Now what does this imagery correspond

to to Jesus self identification as the son of man Jesus will come on the clouds He

will meet us in the clouds This also ties back to revelation Now Malachi the

messenger before the Messiah Malachi three OK To explore this a little bit Malachi prophesized about a messenger

who will prepare the way for the Lord who is this messenger later identified as

John the Baptist You're probably familiar with John you've probably heard of John John prepared the way

for Jesus So that John went through prepared the way for Jesus was preaching for Jesus

was doing everything for Jesus This was predicted long before John was in that position So again it's

very interesting to see how all of these prophecies were not just built were not just put together we're

not just conveyed but how God had to understand things from so many different perspectives that

we could not understand which goes to his omniscience knowing everything being everywhere understanding everything So in this lesson

OK we've learned about some specific prophecies in the Bible related to Christ There are many more It would take

us hours to go through every single individual prophecy But I recommend you go back through

prophecies that interest you you delve into them a little bit deeper you go through them a little bit

deeper OK These are called topic studies Highly recommend these all the time But the prophecies

we covered related to Christ we went over their verses how they were fulfilled Now you know some themes

and connections how they connect thematically OK Throughout the Bible recurring themes just like in

the minor prophets we discussed humility redemption and nature the nature of the Messiah We

touched on the Old Testament to New Testament Give you a deeper understanding of how the

prophecies from the Old Testament were realized in the New Testament And then finally relevance and

application So learning about the relevance of these prophecies how do we apply them to modern day life We

apply them to our Christian faith We allow them to enrich our understanding of Christ of what Christ did for

us how Christ came and also take the approach of understanding that Christ coming was

predicted long before he was here long before he came here in no other way that

could have been possible other than through divine intervention through God's ultimate divine plan So as we explore

through these prophecies we see a picture of Jesus as the fulfillment of God's promises and the centerpiece

of redemption and history That is the thread throughout the Bible That is the thread throughout prophecy So this

should help deepen understanding of Jesus identity mission and overall victory So congratulations for finishing this lesson Congratulations
