Posted in

When Paul was sitting in a Roman prison, facing death, he was still growing. In his final letter to Timothy he requested a number of things, and notable in the list is the phrase: “bring…the books” (2 Timothy 4:13). Throughout the apostle’s writings he quotes from a number of sources and it is clear that this man was a reader. What is fascinating is that, as he nears the end of his journey, he is still hungry, still searching, still gleaning from good books.

One way to be a lifelong learner is to be a lifelong reader. Not all books are created equal to be sure; this is why trustworthy recommendations are necessary. We have previously posted a series of 25 articles that listed 125 good books on a variety of subjects. You may access those resources here.

We all continue to grow and I am regularly discovering another helpful book (to my wife’s dismay!). This month we begin something new that I hope will be profitable for many. Once each month on our Youtube channel I will be sharing a book that I am currently reading myself with a brief recommendation. If you have not yet subscribed to the channel we would be honored for you to follow the content that is posted there each day.

The first in this new series of short video clips is available now and we hope you will take two minutes to watch it. Click here to hear more about his month’s book and watch for a new one each month. I would also love to hear what books are helping you right now!

Happy reading.

Mathematically, it is impossible that one man could fulfill so many unique prophecies, many of which were related to the actions of others toward him. How can you orchestrate your death in such a specific manner i.e. By crucifixion (not invented) between criminals, being given vinegar to drink while dying, being killed at the hands of the Gentiles, after being betrayed by your dear friend? These are a fraction of the hundreds of such prophecies Jesus fulfilled. It is only possible if that Man was the God-man - Jesus Christ. Our Approach The prophecies in our list are many of those connected to the circumstances, surroundings, characteristics, events, manners, and traits that the Lord Jesus fulfilled during His earthly ministry. It is by no means comprehensive but serves as a reference and devotional guide to those seeking the Lord Jesus. Types and figures have been omitted, for they are woven throughout the entirety of Scripture. Truly, every part of the Written Word points to the Word made flesh, Who dwelt among us (John 1:14). We trust this list of 55 prophecies about the first coming of Christ will serve to demonstrate the total confidence you can have that Jesus is the Messiah, the Redeemer, The Son of God.
