Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 5, 2021

| 3,476 views

Jesus' Deity is confirmed by His fulfillment of many of the Old Testament prophecies about the coming Messiah. However, He did not fulfill them all and that was on purpose. The fulfillment of some of the prophecies is yet to come, and, they WILL be fulfilled.

Antipas: The Perverse And Putrid Puppet Ruler Of Galilee Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 12, 2021
