Prophecies from Jesus
Introduction
There are many great men in the Bible who were prophets of God.
There is no greater Prophet than Jesus Christ Himself!
Jesus was sent forth by God as His Prophet (Heb. 1:1-2).
Moses foretold of the coming of God’s Great Prophet (Deut. 18:18-19)
Peter confirmed that Jesus of Nazareth was the fulfillment of Moses’ great prophecy (Acts 3:19-26)
God established clear guidelines for determining the truthfulness and faithfulness of a prophet and his message (Deut. 18:21-22; Jer. 28:9).
These can and should be applied to the prophecies of Jesus, too.Slide3

“…The word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak…” (John 12:48-50).

Every single one of Jesus’ prophecies about the events in His last days and shortly after His ascension came to pass.
We can have full assurance that every prophecy of Jesus about the events at the end of time will come to pass.Slide13
