The Prophetic Significance of the Cross

The Prophetic Significance of the Cross

Passage: Mark 15:23-32

Preacher: Derrick McCarson

Series: Mark, vol. 2: The Suffering Servant

Detail:

The Old Testament has over 300 prophecies made about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Scholars have identified that 30 of these prophesies, or 10%, were fulfilled in the last 24 hours of Jesus life. The Gospel writers were careful to bring this to our attention as they recorded the scene at Calvary. Jesus alone fit the Messianic profile spelled out centuries prior to His arrival on Earth. The Cross was no accident, but the centerpiece of Gods divine drama which was written in advance. The fact that Jesus fulfilled so many prophecies not only, identifies Him as the unique Son of God, but it also proves that the Bible is the Word of God.
