Was Jesus the Messiah?
In the day Messiah comes there would be:
- Peace and prosperity over all the Earth (Isa 2:4; 11:6-8)
- All of Israel’s enemies defeated (Zac 14:3-4)

- The rebuilding of the temple — the third temple. (Ezekiel 37:26-28)
- Unity of all of Humanity in the universal knowledge of the God of Israel. (Mic 4:1-3, Zec 14:9, Isa 11:9)

Did Jesus Really Die? Part 1
Three Main Reasons Jesus Did NOT Die on the Cross
The first thing to remember is that it takes belief to be deceived. If you don’t have facts you only have opinions. Truth is based on fact, not belief.
Three main reasons:
-
- Belief that Jesus was raised from the dead — a requirement for salvation.
- Jesus appeared to his disciples in his wounded physical body — in secret.
- Large amounts of herbs that were known at the time to be curative were brought to the tomb.
