There is a scarlet thread running from the book of Genesis to Malachi telling of a coming
Saviour who would deliver His people from their sins. His name is Jesus Christ. From
the time of his birth to His ascension into heaven (as recorded in the four Gospels of Matthew,
Mark, Luke, and John), we see the fulfillment of these Old Testament prophecies. From the
book of Acts to Revelation, we continue to see the name of Jesus with all of His
glorious attributes beautifully interwoven into the
passages of Scripture.
From all 66 books of the Bible (39 from the Old Testament and 27 from the New
Testament), we can clearly see what the apostle John recorded
in Revelation 4:8: "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty which was, and is, and is to come.
That's right, Jesus was in the beginning (John 1:1), lived on earth (Matthew - John), and
is coming back for His Bride and to take vengeance upon the earth (I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 19:11-15).
Jesus Christ is truly the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8).
