Prophecies of Jesus Christ: Fulfilled
To comprehend this amazing fact, an illustration
is helpful. Suppose you take not 300 predictions but only 8. What are
the odds that 8 predictions might all be fulfilled in one person? The
likelihood is that of one in 10 to the 17th power (1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000)!
To make this statement more meaningful, Josh McDowell
put this into the form of a picture. Imagine, he said, that you cover
the state of Texas with silver dollars to a depth of 2 feet, and on one
of those silver dollars you place a mark. Now blindfold a man and tell
him to pick up just one silver dollar—how likely is he to pick up
the one that you marked? That is parallel to all eight prophecies being
fulfilled in one man! (Josh McDowell, Evidence that Demands a Verdict,
vol. 1, pp. 144, 167).
Following are charts of some of the prophecies of Christ’s
first coming that were fulfilled, along with the references to their fulfillments.
