Prophecy of the Christ

The birth of the Savior was found in the prophecy of the Old Testament.

Isaiah 7:14 - “Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call Hid name Emmanuel.”

Psalm 72:9-10 - “May desert tribes bow down before him.....May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlands render him tribute; May the kings of Sheba and Seba bring gifts!”

Numbers 24:17 - “I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near: a star shall come out of Jacob, and a scepter shall rise out of Israel.”

Jeremiah 23:5 - “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.”

Micah 34:23 - “But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth is from old, from ancient days.”

Ezekiel 34:23 - “And I will set up over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he shall feed them: he shall feed them and be their shepherd.”

Isaiah 60:6 - “They shall bring gold and frankincense, and shall bring good news, the praises of the Lord.”

Hosea 11:1 - “When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son.”

Isaiah 9:6 - “For unto us a child is born, to us a sin is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

There are no prophecies about Muhammad (Islam), Joseph Smith (Mormonism), Charles Russell (Jehovah’s Witness) or Siddhartha (Buddhism). The only one who was promised and came was the Savior, Jesus Christ.
