God's Own Proof: Messianic Prophecies

There are many modern evidences for the divinity of Jesus and the truth of scripture. Many are scientific, many historical, many logical. However, none (however important and valuable) match God's own proof.

What is that proof? Prophecy. God spoke ahead of time about the thing He would do as proof that they were from Him. He said if a prophet said something would happen and it didn't, he was a false prophet. He also said He is the God who declares the end from the beginning. In otherwords, He tells us before hand what is going to happen.

Jesus did the same. He said to His disciples about the cross before it happened so that when it came to pass they would believe in Him.

There are so many prophecies of the Messiah in the Old Testament, written long before Jesus walked the earth. And they were all fulfilled to the detailed letter in Him.
