"By the time you get to the last book of the Old Testament, there are 300 separate references to this one life that form the unique fingerprint of...Jesus."
"He came so that He could rescue"

The probability of any human fulfilling just eight of the prophecies about Messiah...conservatively is one chance in one hundred million billion.
