Messianic Prophecy: What Is It?

Messianic prophecy is the collection of over 100 predictions (a conservative estimate) in the Old Testament about the future Messiah of the Jewish people. These predictions were written by multiple authors, in numerous books, over approximately 1,000 years. Messianic Prophecy is so dramatic today, because with the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the reliability of the Septuagint version of the Old Testament (both of which have been proven to exist prior to the time Jesus walked on the earth) you can be assured that these prophecies were not “conspired” after-the-fact.

Messianic Prophecy: Fulfillment by Jesus Christ

Messianic prophecy was fulfilled by the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Although many Jews did not accept Jesus as their Messiah, many did, and they became the Jewish sect later known as the Christians. Christianity, based in dramatic part on the fulfillment of historical prophecy, spread rapidly throughout the Roman Empire of the 1st Century. Examine the prophecies yourself, and calculate the probability of one man fulfilling just a handful of the most specific ones, and you’ll be amazed.

“Jesus said to them, ‘This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.’” Luke 24:44 (NIV)

The Old Testament verses are the prophecy; the New Testament verses proclaim the fulfillment. Check them all out for yourself!

Omg play nice you two…

Sueno's comments kept me from leaving earlier than I did. Ahnsahnghong isn't not God because he is Korean or balding and every time he claimed that it only reinforced the claim by the WMSCOG that people look too much at the physical to refute him instead of the Bible itself.

Reffering to Zahn Gil Jah as his divorced younger girlfriend is just an attack from a WMSCOG member standpoint, and from those outside we don't know that they had ANY relationship just that SHE claims they did.

The claims about not believing in Jesus and Ahnian/Zahngian also just comes across as an attack. While in WMSCOG members are deceived to say that of those outside WE don't need to emulate them to alienate them.

 

Their doctrine may be false but that does not make THEM false.

i'm sorry to hear this.

thank you

Well, for sure some comments are strong.  Shimon still regards this group as a religion.  It is not.  It is a mind control cult.  However, in the future, we will refrain from "strong comments" because the purpose of this forum is to get people out, not argue theology.

Shimon also considers the bible a giant crossword puzzle, which is rather strange from my point of view.  However, he is not the only person with this misunderstanding of the history of that book.  We support the purpose of this forum, and while disagreeing with some of shimon's comments, we will refrain from attacks on character and personality.  Hopefully, Mr. Shimon will do the same.  Thanks!

[Sueno Maruyama]

And, for the record, Shimon, our family is of mixed racial background.  Calling Sueno a racist is a huge laugh for us.  Thanks!

Oh, and also, several of our best friends are Korean.  But, hey, nevermind.  Believe what you want.  Thanks!

[Simon]

that is a straw man

also Jews can be antisemites homosexuals can be homophobic black people can hate black people

you’re talking like the person that said I’m not racist I have a black friend

furthermore members of the world mission.society church of god do believe in jesus christ if you want to admit it or not

Further you cannot say what I believe took you nearly a month to realize I left church of god

also it needs saying racism.isn’t about liking or hating it is attribution of its importance in irrelevant context.

[Sueno Maruyama]

Ok Shimon.  whatever you want to think or believe.  You believed in Ahnian theology at one time and now you don't.  Maybe someday you will believe a mixed racial family finds it difficult to be racist.  Thanks!

[Simon]

Stop setting up straw men. I said individual comments were racist non racist people make racist comments

[Simon]

And it isn’t Ahnianism first of all is just a bigoted term you made up. Second it is Kim and Zhang’s doctrine not ahnsahnghong’s

[WHOAMI]

in all fairness, Shimon is right. Ahnsanghong passed away, it’s not his fault mother & general pastor changed things around. Stop attacking the deceased.

[Simon]

IF we want to call it something other than Christian Zahngian would make most sense (using your idea of going by the family name of the worshipped) seeing as they put more emphasis on her than Ahnsahnghong anyway. But the real problem with calling them not christian is it comes across as we are attacking THEM and not their church. And we want to be careful not to do that as much as possible.

[WHOAMI]

getting back to the main topic, i still have not heared from a wmsm, please show me through the bible the fulfillment of Ahnsanghong & mother.
