Is there proof that Jesus is the Messiah promised by God?
“The LORD says to my Lord: ‘Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.” – Psalm 110:1
Did you know that Psalm 110 is quoted more in the New Testament than any other passage?
The Old Testament has dozens of messianic predictions, so when Jesus burst on the scene, Jews of his day already had an idea of what the Messiah would look like.
When Jesus claimed the title of Messiah without meeting expectations, heads turned and tempers flared.
Only Jesus has fulfilled Psalm 110. He’s a human descendent of David who was anointed as both king in the royal lineage and high priest in the line of Melchizedek.
Jesus used Psalm 110:1 to stake his claim to divinity (Matthew 22:41-46), as did Peter (Acts 2:34-36), Paul (Romans 8:34; Ephesians 1:20; Colossians 3:1), and the author Hebrews (Hebrews 1:3; 8:1; 10:12p 12:2).
When Jesus asked Peter who he thought he was, Peter answered, “You are the Christ (Messiah), the Son of the living God.” (Matthew 16:15-16).
The question “Who is Jesus? is the single most important question one will ever answer.
Who do you say He is?
