How many prophecies did Jesus Christ fulfill?

Today we are going answer another question from the "Upick" voiting. Someone was curious how many prophecies from the Old Testament were fulfilled in Jesus Christ. 


Scholars perspective on what is an Old Testmanet (O.T.) prophecy varies but the range is between 300-360 prophecies of the Messiah. Jesus Christ actually fufilled every single one of them. (if you would like a copy of all of the prophecies & verses from the O.T. just email me at jeremy@wyandottefamily.com There are so many I didn't want to make this blog too long :) 

The odds of over 300 prophecies being fulfilled in one being is so astronomical it is humanly impossible. I am so thankful that the Bible says, "With God all things are possible." The fact that Jesus Christ did fulfill all of the Messianic prophecies, it sure is strong evidence of His divinity. 

Two books that I encourage many seekers & skeptics to read is "The Case for Christ" by Lee Strobell & Josh McDowell's book "The New Evidence that demands a verdict. It is chalk full historical evidence of Jesus Christ and his teachings. I would encourage you to grab one and check it out. 

There have been numerous famous, smart and educated people that have dove into research with the motive and intent of disproving Jesus Christ and Christianity. However, the majority of the time people discover the enmorous and clear evidence that is there and end up becoming followers of Jesus Christ. 

I hope this makes sense and addresses the question. If you need more thoughts or clarification please comment.
