Welcome, Jewish brothers and sisters. We have a special place in our heart for you because of the promise Adonai made to Avraham, that the rest of the world would be blessed through you, and especially because His Scriptures came through your people.
That being said, we find the Tanakh extremely powerful in light of the Scriptures that point to the coming Mashiach (Messiah). Please take a look for yourself:

In his book, Science Speaks, mathematician Peter Stoner states that if we apply the modern science of probability to just eight of the prophecies above, “. . . We find that the chance that any man might have lived to the present time and fulfilled all eight prophecies is 1 in 10^17.” This means the chances are one in 100,000,000,000,000,000. For a greater explanation, Stoner illustrates “. . . We take 10^17 silver dollars and lay them on the face of Texas. They will cover the state two feet deep. Now mark one of these silver dollars and stir the whole mass thoroughly. Blindfold a man and tell him that he must pick up one silver dollar and say that this is the right one. What chance would he have of getting the right one? Just the same chance that the prophets would have had of writing just eight prophecies and having them all come true in any one man, from their day to the present time, providing they wrote in their own wisdom.”
The chance of one man fulfilling only 48 of the Messianic prophecies mentioned above would be 1 in 10^157. If we were to write this out, it would be 1 followed by 157 zeros. And the mathematical probability of 324 prophecies being fulfilled by any ONE MAN would be a number beyond comprehension.
Yet, that one man fulfilled not only 8 Messianic prophecies, and not 48, but He fulfilled more than 324 prophecies that the Prophets wrote concerning the Mashiach.
“Now these prophecies were either given by inspiration of God or the prophets just wrote them as they thought they should be. In such a case, the prophets had just one chance in 10^17 of having them come true in any man, but they all came true in Christ [Messiah]. “This means that the fulfillment of just eight prophecies alone proves that God inspired the writing of those [eight] prophecies to a definiteness which lacks only one chance in 10^17 of being absolute.”

Yet to be fulfilled:
Yeshua will return to set up His kingdom and will rule from Jerusalem:
Zechariah 14:3-4
Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle. On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west forming a very large valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and the other half toward the south.
Yeshayahu 11:1-9
A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him--
the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord--
and he will delight in the fear of the Lord. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears; but with righteousness he will judge the needy, with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked. Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist. The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling[a] together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the cobra’s den, and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

"They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings--and with Him will be His called, chosen and faithful followers."
Revelation 11:15
Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Messiah; and He will reign forever and ever."
Revelation 19:15-16
From out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: "KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."
Yeshua will return to set up His kingdom and will rule from Jerusalem:
Zechariah 14:3-4
Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle. On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west forming a very large valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and the other half toward the south.
Yeshayahu 11:1-9
A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him--
the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord--
and he will delight in the fear of the Lord. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears; but with righteousness he will judge the needy, with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked. Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist. The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling[a] together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the cobra’s den, and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
Revelation 14:1
“Then I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 [from every tribe of the sons of Israel] who had His name and the name of His Father written on their foreheads.”
Revelation 19:11
“And I saw heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and He who sat upon it is called Faithful, and True; and in righteousness He judges and wages war.”
Revelation 17:14
"They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings--and with Him will be His called, chosen and faithful followers."
Revelation 11:15
Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Messiah; and He will reign forever and ever."
Revelation 19:15-16
From out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: "KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."
The Daniel 9 prophecy foresees the exact time frame of the coming of the Messiah, even telling us what will happen to Him. After reading the Yirmiyahu 25:8-13 prophecy, Daniel fears that because of the sins of the people, the exile will be extended. So Daniel cries out to God in repentance and fasting. In response to Daniel’s prayer, God sends the angel Gabriel. Gabriel announces the coming of the Messiah will be in 7 weeks and 62 weeks (483 years). According to Gabriel, these 483 years would start with the command to rebuild Jerusalem (Daniel 9:25). In 445 BC, the King of Persia, Artaxerxes, gives Nehemiah the required order to rebuild Jerusalem and the temple (Nechemiah 2:1-8). So according to the book of Daniel, Mashiach must appear no later than 483 years after the year 445 BC. His mission - to put an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity (Yeshayahu 52:13-15, 53).
Many Jewish men and women have come to faith by simply reading the Tanakh. While studying the Messianic prophecies for themselves, they found Mashiach! Even after seeking help from Rabbis, the authority of the text spoke undeniably for the Messiahship of Yeshua.
Friend, do you still say that, "Jesus is not the Messiah?" Please ask the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to reveal the truth to you through His Holy Scriptures.
