Bible DISCOVERY 15: The DESTINY of JESUS

 

It was prophesied:

Isaiah 53:1-8 

King James Version

53 Who hath believed our report? 

and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?

2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, 

and as a root out of a dry ground

he hath no form nor comeliness; 

and when we shall see him, 

there is no beauty that we should desire him.

3 He is despised and rejected of men; 

a man of sorrows, 

and acquainted with grief: 

and we hid as it were our faces from him

he was despised, 

and we esteemed him not.

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, 

and carried our sorrows: 

yet we did esteem him stricken, 

smitten of God, 

and afflicted.

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, 

he was bruised for our iniquities

the chastisement of our peace was upon him; 

and with his stripes we are healed.

6 All we like sheep have gone astray; 

we have turned every one to his own way; 

and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

7 He was oppressed, 

and he was afflicted, 

yet he opened not his mouth: 

he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, 

and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, 

so he openeth not his mouth.

8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: 

and who shall declare his generation? 

for he was cut off out of the land of the living

for the transgression of my people was he stricken.


Isaiah 42:2-3 

King James Version

2 He shall not cry, 

nor lift up, 

nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

3 A bruised reed shall he not break, 

and the smoking flax shall he not quench

he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.


JESUS was born, in the humblest of circumstances:

Luke 2:7 

King James Version

7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, 

and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, 

and laid him in a manger

because there was no room for them 

in the inn.


He took the form of a servant:

Philippians 2:5-7 

King James Version

5 Let this mind be in you, 

which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, 

thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made himself of no reputation, 

and took upon him the form of a servant, 

and was made in the likeness of men:


He ministered to people:

Mark 10:45 

King James Version

45 For even the Son of man came 

not to be ministered unto, 

but to minister, 

and to give his life 

a ransom for many.


He became poor, so we may be rich:

2 Corinthians 8:9 

King James Version

9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

that, though he was rich, 

yet for your sakes he became poor

that ye through his poverty might be rich.


He was tempted, and yet had no sin:

Hebrews 4:15 

King James Version

15 For we have not an high priest 

which cannot be touched 

with the feeling of our infirmities

but was in all points tempted like as we are, 

yet without sin.


He died on the cross for us:

Philippians 2:8 

King James Version

8 And being found in fashion as a man, 

he humbled himself

and became obedient unto death, 

even the death of the cross.


His life was the GOSPEL:

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 

King James Version

3 For I delivered unto you first of all 

that which I also received

how that Christ died for our sins 

according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, 

and that he rose again the third day 

according to the scriptures:


And GOD exalted Him:

Philippians 2:9-11 

King James Version

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, 

and given him a name which is above every name:

10 That at the name of Jesus 

every knee should bow, 

of things in heaven, 

and things in earth, 

and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue should confess 

that Jesus Christ is Lord, 

to the glory of God the Father.


He will return:

Hebrews 9:28 

King James Version

28 So Christ was once offered 

to bear the sins of many

and unto them that look for him 

shall he appear the second time 

without sin unto salvation.


He shall come with the clouds:

Revelation 1:7 

King James Version

7 Behold, he cometh with clouds

and every eye shall see him

and they also which pierced him: 

and all kindreds of the earth 

shall wail because of him. 

Even so, Amen.


On a day and hour only the Father knows:

Matthew 24:36 

King James Version

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, 

no, not the angels of heaven

but my Father only.


He will sit on His throne:

Matthew 25:31 

King James Version

31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, 

and all the holy angels with him

then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:


He will judge, and make war:

Revelation 19:11-16 

King James Version

11 And I saw heaven opened, 

and behold a white horse; 

and he that sat upon him 

was called Faithful and True

and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, 

and on his head were many crowns; 

and he had a name written, 

that no man knew

but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture 

dipped in blood: 

and his name is called The Word of God.

14 And the armies which were in heaven 

followed him upon white horses, 

clothed in fine linen, 

white and clean.

15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, 

that with it he should smite the nations

and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: 

and he treadeth the winepress 

of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh 

a name written

King Of Kings, 

And Lord Of Lords.


And They shall reign, for ever and ever.

Revelation 22:3-5 

King James Version

3 And there shall be no more curse: 

but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; 

and his servants shall serve him:

4 And they shall see his face; 

and his name shall be in their foreheads.

5 And there shall be no night there; 

and they need no candle, 

neither light of the sun; 

for the Lord God giveth them light

and they shall reign for ever and ever.
