How do we know that Christ fulfills Old Testament prophecies?

Answered in 1 source

Christ fulfills Old Testament prophecies as the Messiah who embodies the spiritual qualities described in the Scriptures.

The prophetic words of Isaiah, notably in Isaiah 66:2, point directly to the character and mission of Christ as the Messiah. This passage declares that God looks favorably on those who are humble and contrite, qualities perfectly exemplified in Jesus. Throughout His life, Christ displayed unwavering reverence for God’s Word, fulfilling the law and prophecies. Moreover, He was recognized as the man-child who would rule the nations, as seen in Revelation 12, fulfilling His role as the spiritual King whose kingdom transcends earthly boundaries. The New Testament authors frequently cite Isaiah, confirming His vital prophetic role and demonstrating continuity across God’s revelation.
