First of all Tweety, let we also welcome you to Buil On The True Foundation. So good to have you in here studying the Word of God with us and also so good to see you posting. Now to answer your question, sure you are right, those scriptures are talking about Jesus. Here we try to prove everything with scripture so that we will not tell anyone wrong. To show you some scriptures to prove this is Jesus, let's go to the book of Acts. And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: | | | Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. | | | For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you. | | | And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. | | | Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. | | | Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. | | | Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities. | He said in I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. | Now also to show with scripture that it was Jesus that it was referring to [ will put my words in his mouth ] in that scripture let, see if we can find it in the scriptures. Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I SPEAK these things. | I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. | And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I SPEAK therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I SPEAK. | Joh 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I SPEAK unto you I SPEAK not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. | To me this proves without a shadow of doubt that it was Jesus that it was talking about in De. 18 |
