THE DA VINCI MYTH VS THE GOSPEL TRUTH
• He would be called a Nazarene (Judges 13:5,
c. 1040 B.C.).
• He would be zealous for His Father’s house
(Psalm 69:9, c. 1000 B.C.).
• He would be filled with God’s Spirit
(Isaiah 61:1, c. 750 B.C.).
All of these things were written hundreds of years
before He was born. Stop and think my friends. Suppose
you were trying to describe the man who would be inaugurated
President of the United States in the year 2764.
He was going to be born in a small town, let’s say in
Mississippi—a town so small it wasn’t even on the maps
of that day, but it exists. You would have to describe this
man’s lineage and all of the things he would do and
would have done to him during his lifetime. As in
Christ’s case:
• He would miraculously heal many (Isaiah
35:5-6, c. 750 B.C.).
• The blind would see (Isaiah 35:5, c. 750 B.C.).
• The deaf would hear (Isaiah 35:5, c. 750 B.C.).
• The lame would walk (Isaiah 35:6, c.
750 B.C.).
• He would draw the Gentiles to Himself
(Isaiah 42:6, c. 750 B.C.).
• He would speak in parables (Psalm 78:2-4, c.
1000 B.C.).
• He would be rejected by His own family
and friends (Isaiah 53:3, c. 750 B.C.).
• He would make a triumphal entry into
Jerusalem (Zechariah 9:9, c. 500 B.C.).
