Think About this……
One of the most prophetic verses in the Word of God
This is one of the many prophetic verses in the Bible.
It was written hundreds of years before Christ.
It explains how Christ suffered for our sins.
How could an Old Testament person understand the idea
of Christ dying for our sins? God was pulling aside the curtain of time to let the people of Isaiah's day look ahead to the suffering of the future Messiah and the resulting forgiveness available to all mankind. This prophesy is astounding! All you have to do is believe in Him and you will be saved.
Isaiah 53:5 "But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed."
His hands and feet were pierced.
This is another fulfilled prophecy which finds its fulfillment in the person and life of Christ, Jesus of Nazareth.

Christ was crucified in the customary Roman manner, the hands and feet being pierced by huge spikes which fastened the body to the wooden cross.

Old Testament Prophecy, Psalm 22:16 "For dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet."
Fulfillment of this prophecy is recorded in Luke 23:33 "When they came to the place called The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left." So what are you waiting for, say this prayer with me
‘Dear Lord Jesus I know and believe my sins have nailed to to the cross and made you suffer for me. Forgive me of all my filthyness and come into my life today. I accept yiu as my Savior and forsake all my sinfull ways.’ Amen
Congratulations. Be of good courage, get someone who can help you in your new life or go to a church close to you and worship with them and your life shall never remain the same again. God Bless you.
