30 Prophecies: One Story
On an afternoon 2,000 years ago, a couple of friends were walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus. A very ordinary-looking man joined them and asked what they were talking about. This was a strange question as one event had dominated most people's conversations that weekend: the execution of Jesus of Nazareth.
However, the ordinary-looking man was not as clueless as they first thought... "beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself". You see, their fellow-traveler wasn't just a random guy - he was Jesus himself.
This book will take us into that conversation Jesus had with Cleopas and his friend and what he was trying to help them understand. It will take us on a tour of some of what "Moses and all the Prophets" said about Jesus. Who were they talking to? What did it mean to those people? How was any of it about Jesus?
We will look at thirty different places in the Biblewhere you can find a prophecy about Jesus.
Each chapter has the following extra features:
- Prophet & Dates
- Prophecy Made
- Then and There
- Prophecy Fulfilled
- Scarlet Thread
- Application
- Prayer
66 Books: One Story
If you've read the Bible, you probably know some of the important battles, a good chunk of the life of Jesus, maybe a Psalm or two - but what do you know about the minor prophets and the epistles? Do you have some loose ends that need tying up? This is where a book like this helps. The Bible has one author - God - so we need to see the Bible as a whole, as God's Word. Every book of the Bible is the breath of God and the plan of Salvation spans all of Scripture. In this Bible overview each book of the Bible is summarized; background given; themes and theology explained.
