“Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.” - Isaiah 7:14
The Miracle of Messianic Prophecy
After God first gave the promise of a Savior, He began revealing specific truths about the coming King through human vessels: prophets. More than 680 years before the birth of Jesus, God told the prophet Isaiah that the Savior would have a virgin mother and would be God Himself in the flesh. But this prophecy is only one of 108 fulfilled through the birth and life of Jesus.
In 1958, renowned mathematics and astronomy professor Peter Stoner studied and calculated the chances of Messianic prophecies being fulfilled. He concluded that the probability of even 8 of those 108 prophecies coming to pass is, conservatively, one in one-hundred quadrillion. This makes Christmas one of the most significant miracles in history, and these numbers are certainly proof that He is worthy of our worship!
