Pray for our Government

Today more than ever, we can see how Satan has misguided so many people in Government. Everyday a new scandal pops up.  I pray that our nation would be close to God in wisdom and Faith. We as Christians, need be in his word and declaring the wisdom of God! 

Prophecies fulfilled by Christ

Berean studing Old Testament and Paul's Teaching

Prophecies fulfilled by Christ

In being a berean these prophecies were used to analysis Paul's teaching. Here is a clear, organized list of major Old Testament prophecies from the King James Bible that were fulfilled by Jesus Christ, along with their New Testament fulfillments.

The New Testament writers frequently point these out to demonstrate that Jesus is the promised Messiah. While scholars identify hundreds of prophecies and typological references fulfilled in Christ (some counts exceed 300 when including broader themes), the following are among the most direct and widely recognized. I have quoted key verses directly from the King James Version (KJV).

Prophecies of His Birth and Early Life

1. Born of a virgin Prophecy (Isaiah 7:14): “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Fulfillment: Matthew 1:22-23 (the virgin birth of Jesus; note the spelling “Emmanuel” in the NT quotation).

Being Berean

“Be a Berean”

Rightly Dividing the Word  in 2 Timothy 15,  is to be similar to being Berean and end in the same result. As a believer in the Body of Christ, your faith will increase and personal love for Christ in your life will grow. 
 
[2Ti 2:15 KJV] 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
 
Being a Berean refers to the positive example of the Jewish people in the  synagogue at Berea (in Macedonia) described in Acts 17:10-12 of the New Testament. They are praised as “more noble” (or “fair-minded” / “open-minded”) than the Jews in Thessalonica because of how they responded to the gospel message preached by the Apostle Paul and Silas. These Jewish men had an in-depth understanding of the Old Testament and the Gospel that Paul taught with the mysteries revealed to him added to what they understood.
 

Today, “being Berean” is a common encouragement in Christian circles. It means:

  • Don’t accept every teaching, sermon, book, or idea at face value — even from respected leaders.
  • Test everything against the Bible with an open but discerning heart.
  • Study Scripture regularly and eagerly for yourself.
  • Approach God’s Word with humility, expecting it to shape your beliefs.
