Ever exclaim that the Bible points toward Jesus as the Messiah, but didn’t know many places to look for these prophecies? These are links that list the prophecies from the Bible that were fulfilled by Jesus, thus pointing to Him as the Jewish Messiah.

Some of the prophecies may seem vague, but they are characteristics none the less. A list like this is something I always wanted to research a bit, so I thought I would share it here.
Just some random thoughts:
I understand that the Jewish nation does not see these prophecies as being fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ. It also seems that the Jewish nation feels Christians blame them for killing Jesus. As a Christian myself, I see the fact Jesus was killed as fulfillment of prophecy and that it was a beautiful act that occurred even if it was brutal and bloody. If Jesus was not killed, then we would have no hope of overcoming sin once and for all (one lie would keep us out of heaven).
