What if you didn’t have the New Testament—could you still prove that Jesus is the Messiah?

In this episode, we explore how the earliest followers of Jesus made their case using only the Old Testament Scriptures. Starting with the Road to Emmaus in Luke 24, we examine how Jesus himself pointed back to Moses and the prophets to reveal his identity. From there, we follow the same approach in Acts—Philip explaining Isaiah 53 to the Ethiopian official, and Apollos boldly proving from Scripture that Jesus is the Christ.

We also tackle common objections head-on:

• Was the Bible altered to make Jesus “fit” prophecy?
• Could Jesus have staged fulfillments to appear legitimate?
• How reliable are the Old Testament manuscripts?

We dig into the historical evidence behind the Septuagint and the Dead Sea Scrolls, showing why we can trust that these prophecies existed long before Jesus.

Then we get practical.

We break down key Messianic prophecies, including:

• Micah 5:2 – The Messiah born in Bethlehem
• Isaiah 7:14 – The virgin birth
• Hosea 11:1 – “Out of Egypt I called my son”
• Psalm 22 – A detailed picture of crucifixion, written centuries before it existed

If you care about apologetics, evangelism, or understanding your Bible at a deeper level, this episode gives you a clear framework for seeing Jesus throughout the Old Testament.
