Have a "Mary" Christmas
Can you prove Jesus is the Messiah? This Christmas sermon presents 4,000 years of Old Testament prophecies—written centuries before Jesus was born—that were fulfilled with stunning precision. The evidence is overwhelming, but the choice is yours.
When the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary with an impossible announcement, he wasn't starting something new. God had been predicting the Messiah's coming since Genesis 3:15, 4,000 years earlier. The virgin birth, the birthplace, the tribe, the crucifixion details, even the exact timing—all prophesied long before Jesus arrived.
In this message, Pastor Jerry Dirmann takes you on a chronological journey through biblical prophecy:
4000 BC - Genesis 3:15: The "seed of the woman" will crush the serpent's head
1975 BC - Genesis 49:10: The scepter shall not depart from Judah
1000 BC - Psalm 22:1, 16, 18: "My God, why forsaken me?" Pierced hands and feet, garments divided
740 BC - Isaiah 7:14: The virgin shall conceive and bear a son called Emmanuel
740 BC - Isaiah 53:5-6: Wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities
740 BC - Micah 5:2: Born in Bethlehem, but "from everlasting"
600 BC - Daniel 9:25: Precise timing from decree to rebuild Jerusalem to Messiah's coming
Every single prophecy? Fulfilled in Jesus of Nazareth. The mathematical probability of one person fulfilling just 8 prophecies by chance? 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000 (100 quadrillion). Jesus fulfilled over 300.
