Prophesies of Jesus Christ

some of the main questions we could ever answer: "is the bible real?" "is the bible really God's Word?" One
thing that no other religion has is Prophecies

Prophecy definition:
• : a statement that something will happen in the future
• : the power or ability to know what will happen in the future

2 Peter 1:20-21 Did prophecy come from man or God?

--------
Jesus talked about the fulfillment of prophecies to His followers after His death and resurrection
~
Luke 24:25-27 and Luke 24:44-45

Some skeptics say that Jesus read the old testament and made sure that he could make the prophesies work.
