• This Series: All human time is centered on the birth of Christ. BC means “before Christ.” AD means “the year of our Lord” – a reference to Jesus. This Christmas season we will look at prophecies in the BC that were fulfilled at the coming of Christ in the AD.

 

• This Week: BC prophecies proclaim the coming Messiah would be rejected. These prophesies would be fulfilled in the AD. Jews today reject Jesus as their Messiah because they refuse to believe their Messiah would suffer and die on a despised cross. One day their blinded eyes will be open, and they will see Jesus as he really is.
