Bible Prophecies: The "Christmas Story" From the Ancient Jewish Scriptures . . .
The BIBLE is "The History of the World ... written in Advance!!!"
The Bible takes us from the very BEGINNING ...
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth." (Genesis 1:1)
To the very END ...
"Then I saw a NEW heaven and a NEW Earth, for the first heaven and the first Earth had passed away." (Revelation 21:1) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!) (Prophecies: The coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon)
For God tells us to PROVE He is the living God and Creator that (in His written Word - the Bible) He WILL declare "the end from the beginning" with hundreds of detailed and specific prophecies that only the Creator God could accurately know, see, and predict (over 20% of the Bible ... both Old and New Testaments (Covenants) is predictive prophecy) ...
"For I AM GOD, (The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob ... Israel)
and there is
no other.
and there is
NONE like Me,
The "GIFT" of Christmas ... (Prophecies of Messiah written HUNDREDS of years BEFORE Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) was born . . .
"Behold, the Virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His Name Immanuel" (Immanuel means "God with us"!) (Isaiah 7:14) (In the ancient Septuagint (300 BC) Jewish priests used the Greek word that can ONLY mean "virgin.")
"But you, O BETHLEHEM Ephrathah, though you are little among the thousands of Judah, Yet out of you shall come forth to Me The One to be RULER in Israel, Whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." (Eternal!) (Micah 5:2) ("Everlasting"... a Biblical description of God!!! "Messiah" would step forth from Eternity.)
For Moses wrote . . .
"Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever You had formed the Earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You ARE God." (Psalm 90:2) (Prophecies of Messiah from the ancient Jewish Scriptures ...)
"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a SON is given, (The "Son of God"... ALSO prophesied in Psalm 2:6-7,12 and Proverbs 30:4) and HIS Name will be called Mighty GOD ..." (Isaiah 9:6) (Prophecies of Messiah from the Jewish Scriptures ...)
The Gift: The "Promise" of Christmas ...
"For God so loved the world that He GAVE His only begotten Son, (the "Gift" of Christmas) that whoever believes (trusts) in Him (Messiah ... Jesus Christ ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) should NOT perish (in Hell) but have everlasting life (in Heaven). (A free GIFT ... for ALL who put their trust and faith in Jesus) For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved (into Heaven). He who believes in Him is not condemned (to Hell); but he who does NOT believe (in Jesus ...Yeshua) is condemned (to Hell) already" (The implications of this verse are staggering! (John 3:16-18) (The Bible warns if you do not sincerely accept the Gift ... you will not receive the Gift)
"But He (Messiah) was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our sins (iniquities); The punishment (chastisement) for our peace was upon Him, And by His whip lashes (stripes) we are healed. And the LORD has laid on Him (Messiah) the sin (iniquity) of us all." (The was God's plan ... He would lovingly take our punishment for our sins) (Isaiah 53:5-7) (Don't blame the Jews for Messiah's Crucifixion...but thank them for bringing forth Messiah)
"IF you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you WILL be saved (from your sins and from Hell ... and WELCOMED into the Kingdom of Heaven)." (Romans 10:9)
“Jesus said to her, ‘I Am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes (trusts) in Me, though he may die (the first 'bodily' death), he shall live (forever ... in Heaven). And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die (in Hell ... called the second death in the Bible). Do you believe this?’" (This is the question every man and woman must answer) (John 11:25) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!) (Prophecies: The coming "Rapture"... don't be "left behind")
The Gift: The "Hope" of Christmas ....
"And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away." (Revelation 21:4)
"He (Messiah-God) will swallow up death forever, And the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from all faces ..." (Isaiah 25:8) (Prophecies of Messiah's Return)
"The next day John (the Baptist) saw Jesus (Yeshua) coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The LAMB of God who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29) (Our "Passover" Lamb ... who was lovingly sacrificed for our sins so we might be forgiven)
"The City (Heaven ... the "New Jerusalem") had no need of the Sun or of the Moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its Light." (Revelation 21:23)
"And there shall be no more curse, (of death, sorrow, broken-hearts, crying, or pain ... Genesis 3 lifted) but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him." (Revelation 23:3) (Prophecies of Messiah's Return)
" ... but ONLY those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life." (Revelation 21:27) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!) (Prophecies: The coming "Rapture"... don't be "left behind")
Messiah: “The WORD of God” . . .
"In the beginning was the Word . . . and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father . . . full of grace and truth. He was in the world, the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him . . ." (Excerpted from John 1:1-14)
Please remember, the Kingdom of Heaven is available to every man, woman, boy, and girl in this world, no matter who they are, where they live, or what they have done. It is freely offered to any and all who will receive it. Simply learn of Jesus (Yeshua), the promised Messiah, invite Him into your life as Lord, believe He died on the Cross for all of your sins and rose from the grave (proving there is a Kingdom of Heaven ... and a Hell). Learn of Him and believe in Him . . . for He was the only one who has ever loved you enough to substitute Himself for you on the Cross. He shed His blood, suffered, and died on the Cross to save you from your sins and from the utter darkness and torment of Hell, if you will accept it, believe it, and trust in it. That is why Jesus is called Savior. He now lovingly and graciously offers you life in Heaven (and we are warned it is a "take it or leave it" proposition.) We have to consciously receive it and accept it in faith. If you sincerely admit you have sinned (which means you will need a Savior to get into Heaven) and ask Jesus to come into your life and honestly try to stop doing (and saying) those things God says are wrong, you will go to Heaven ... and with open arms and tears of joy He will receive all who will come to Him in faith and in love ... It's God's Promise!!!
For the Assurance of Life in Heaven . . . ACT NOW!!!
- Acknowledge you are a sinner ... and have sinned against God's Law - Confess your sins to God - Trust (believe) completely in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) ... - That He (lovingly and willingly) died for all of your sins on the Cross ... - That He was buried ... - That He was powerfully raised (Resurrected) from the dead the third day ... - That He now lives ... seated on His throne in Heaven!!! - Turn back to God and His Word ... and turn away from sinful activities ("repent")
If you do these things … sincerely and in faith … the Bible promises you can have the complete assurance of eternal life in Heaven. The Bible tells us Jesus (Yeshua) did all the work for you when He died on the Cross, was buried, and was raised (resurrected) from the dead (as "firstfruits" of the coming Resurrection) ... through the awesome power of God. The Bible says you can’t add anything to it!!! When you believe and trust in (and love) Jesus Christ as your "Savior" (who lovingly saves you from your sins and from Hell) ... and then turn away from your sinful ways and turn back to God ("repent"), you can have the complete peace and assurance in your heart that when you die, you will enter into His Kingdom of Heaven ... forever and ever … it’s God’s Promise!!!
The ONLY thing God asks a NON-believer to do is to BELIEVE (“trust”) in faith ... God (Jesus) did ALL the work ... life in Heaven is offered as a GIFT!!!
