The Plan
Prophecy Thread of Week 38
Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary Definition of Truth:
Conformity to fact or reality; exact accordance with that which is, or has been, or shall be. The truth of history constitutes its whole value. We rely on the truth of the scriptural prophecies.
MESSIAH WILL HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT
Jesus was filled with divine power when the Holy Spirit descended upon Him. This is how John the Baptist knew it was the Messiah, which in itself is the fulfillment of a personal prophecy the Father gave to John (Jhn 1:33). A measure of this same power that Jesus had with the Holy Spirit is available to all who believe in Him (Act 2:1-4).
PROMISED

FULFILLED

29 AD, 27 AD (U)
Jhn 1:32 Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him.
Jhn 1:33 And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
