Consider…
The Old Testament is the part of the Bible written before Jesus was born.
Its writings were completed in 450 B.C.
The Old Testament, written hundreds of years before Jesus’ birth,
contains over 300 prophecies that Jesus fulfilled through
His birth, life, death and resurrection.
- Mathematically speaking, the odds of anyone fulfilling this amount of prophecy are staggering.
- Mathematicians put it this way:
- 1 person fulfilling 8 prophecies: 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000 (100 quadrillion)
- 1 person fulfilling 48 prophecies: 1 chance in 10 to the 157th power
- 1 person fulfilling 300+ prophecies: Only Jesus!
- Over 100 Prophesies of (Promises) of Jesus Birth
- Born of a Virgin- Is. 7:14 – Given 750 BC
- His Nature both Human and Divine- Dan 7:13
- His Name – Is. 7:14 – Given 750 BC
- Born in Bethlehem – Micah 5:1-2 Given 700 BC
from the tribe of Judah -Genesis 49:10- Given 1400 BC - a descendant of King David – Jeremiah 23:5- 626-586 BC
- Presented Gifts- Ps. 72:10-11 2nd Century BC
- He will be the Messiah- Ps. 110; Heb 10:12-13
Isaiah 9:6-7
Luke 24:49
This promise of Jesus was given
(750 years before Christ’s birth)
When God gives a promise
He intends to keep it
His promise is Breakthrough
For us
Christianity is based on FAITH
Faith is based on HOPE
Hope is based on PROMISES
Promises are based on JESUS
Breakthrough is released through the HOLY SPIRIT
What is Christmas?
- Giving gifts
- Traditions
- Decorations
- Food
- Special music
- Gatherings with friends and family
- Making memories
- All of the above
meaning- CHRISTMAS
Christ- Christ
Mas- Celebration
The true meaning of Christmas is
A “celebration” of Christ
Emmanuel
“God with us”
A celebration because God so desired to re-establish relationship with mankind that he left heaven to tell us
how much he loved us
Christmas is God come to man so that man could come to God
Jesus is “God’s promise to us” and He came so we may live in His promise
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
For 2018
In order to realize God’s breakthrough in 2018
