How do we know that the prophecies about Jesus are true?

Answered in 1 source

The fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies concerning Christ establishes their truth through scriptural continuity and divine inspiration.

We ascertain the truth of prophecies about Jesus through their fulfillment as recorded in scripture. Paul asserts in Romans 1:3 that Jesus was 'made of the seed of David,' linking him directly to David. The Old Testament is replete with prophecies that could only find fulfillment in Christ, evidenced by Matthew's Gospel, which continually cites these prophecies. The testimonies of the apostles, particularly in Acts 2, emphasize the resurrection of Christ as a significant fulfillment of God's promises to David, asserting that Jesus is both Lord and Christ, further corroborating the prophetic accuracy.
