I don’t want to sound insensitive as I still have a job but hearing news of the economic crisis day after day has become rather repetitive and tiresome. I wish the papers could report more responsibly instead of spreading panic but sensationalism sells and that’s all that really matters to them in the end.

If there had been a national newspaper in Israel around 2000 years ago, every other week the headline would read “Messianic Prophecy Fulfilled!” and instead of sounding old or evoking a sense of panic this news would have stirred an incredible sense of hope in many a heart. Unlike the economic crisis which will pass and become history, the good news of forgiveness of sins and eternal salvation in Jesus Christ will never get old. For many lives every day this is the best news they’ve ever heard or will ever hear. It is the best news ever and it is for everyone. It’s God’s Christmas gift and it’s got your name on it, “Merry Christmas _your name_ from God.”

Some have calculated that the odds of Jesus fulfilling just 39 of the 324 messianic prophecies in his life time are 1 in 549,755,813,900. Remarkable at the very least. Below are just a few prophecies that were fulfilled in the life of Jesus.
