24.5: How the Torture Jesus Suffered Through was Described 700 Years Before (Isaiah 53)

We just finished the Gospel of Matthew. We walked with Jesus from birth through ministry, to the cross and then  to victory over sin and death. However, did you know that the very scene depicted in the Gospels by eyewitnesses Matthew and John, as well as historian and investigative reporter Luke, was described perfectly by the prophet Isaiah over 700 years before? Yes! Christianity actually begins in the Old Testament! Though the title  “Christians” wasn’t used until Acts 11, Christianity truly begins with the Jews! Let’s dig in… Keep reading in my blog where there are links to dig deeper and watch the special music video at the bottom…. Jesus said, “Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.” ~ ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - This phrase is repeated 14 times in scripture. Kind of gives the idea that God wants us to pay attention.  If you want to reap all the benefits of salvation including the 1-way, non-stop ticket to Heaven then… Believe. Repent. Be Baptized. Receive the Holy Spirit.  Pray this prayer humbly and wholeheartedly… “Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. Please forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and my life to you. I confess You as my personal Lord and Savior. I surrender my whole life to you and I will follow you for the rest of my life. Thank You, Jesus, for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen.” Jesus is coming back soon! Are you ready?
