vic mortelmansJesus said, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." The Internet is an amazing communications vehicle that empowers individuals to bridge thousands of miles in an instant - connecting people from all nations. This website has a twofold purpose: 1) to be a witness to those who do not yet believe that Jesus is the holy Son of God, the Messiah foretold in the Hebrew Scriptures, and 2) to be a faith-builder and reference tool for those who do believe in Jesus and have accepted Him as their Lord and Savior.
A key objective of this website is to present a comprehensive single source of all prophecies related to the first coming of God's promised Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth. Prophecies exclusively related to His second coming are not covered. Another objective was to leverage the hypertext medium that the web offers to make the prophecies easily accessible, with enough link options to create an environment and experience that cannot be replicated from reading books alone. Finally, because this website is centered on the Hebrew portion of God's word, the graphic theme for the site is Jewish. All of the graphic symbols used point to Jesus as the fulfillment of God's plan outlined hundreds and thousands of years before his birth. Jesus said, "I am the vine, ye are the branches," and so all believers are "grafted" into a common spiritual heritage with the Jewish people.
Different aspects of the truth of Jesus of Nazareth appeal to different people. For some, the grace and power of his words go straight to their hearts, as John 7:46 says, "... Never man spake like this man." For others, it is fulfilled prophecy that is most impactful. In Acts 2:14-41 the events are recorded of how the apostle Peter used prophecy from the Hebrew Scriptures to testify to a group of Jewish people that Jesus was the Messiah. Three thousand people became believers in Jesus on that day. Prophecy is used by God to bring people to salvation. As much as two-thirds of the Bible is related to prophecy; it is important to God. Fulfilled prophecy shows us the existence of God, that He has a plan, that He is in control, that He is the only God, and that He expects us to study His word.
Jesus says, "Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think you have eternal life: and they are which testify of me," and "Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life."
To God's chosen, the Jewish people, this site says that Jesus of Nazareth is your Messiah, the fulfillment of the Hebrew Scriptures:
Jeremiah 31:31
"Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah."
Matthew 26:28
Jesus says, "For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins."
In Matthew 5:17-18, Jesus says, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled." And in Matthew 5:24, Jesus said, "... I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel." -
