In Protestant circles, including types and shadows, there are thought to be ~325 messianic prophecies.

However, I've heard of numbers as high as the 500's and was wondering if there exists a book that serves as the most thurough and complete compendium of messianic prophecies (with explanations and references to fulfillment, of course).

No cop-outs! It is obvious that I'm talking about something that isn't divinely inspired! ;-)

[StColette]

actually all together there are over a thousand Messianic prophecies too many to list here lol

[Ziggamafu]

gad zooks! I knew the the true Church would have some crazy number like that since She's always known the Old Covenant like the back of Her hand! So yeah, I [b]gotta [/b]know where I can find all of these listed and explained in detail!!!

Where was this nice long list when I was talking to the Hebrew kid (since, Jew was a racist remark to him.).

Oh well, it's very nice, and very good.

God bless,
