68 Prophecies for Jesus Christ

As the Son of God

Ps. 2:7

The king proclaims the Lord’s decree:“The Lord said to me, You are my son.Today I have become your Father.

Luke 1:32, 35

He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David………The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby to be born will be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.

As the Seed of the woman

Gen. 3:15

And I will cause hostility between you and the woman,and between your offspring and her offspring.He will strike your head,and you will strike his heel.”

Gal. 4:4

But when the right time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, subject to the law.

As the Seed of Abraham

Gen.17:7;

“I will confirm my covenant with you and your descendants after you, from generation to generation. This is the everlasting covenant: I will always be your God and the God of your descendants after you.

Gen. 22:18

And through your descendants all the nations of the earth will be blessed—all because you have obeyed me.”

Gal. 3:16

God gave the promises to Abraham and his child.[a] And notice that the Scripture doesn’t say “to his children” as if it meant many descendants. Rather, it says “to his child”—and that, of course, meansChrist.
